<VV> cracked glass

[Alan and Clare Wesson]

In Britain the windshield is usually covered on a classic insurance policy. 
It is not unknown for people, when they crack their windscreen, to be so sad 
about it that they accidentally drop a house brick onto the cracked bit, 
thus necessitating an insurance claim.

Of course, I don't know anyone who has done that (and actually I don't - but 
I do know it happens! Fortunately for me, the last windshield I broke was in 
1986, and I had a spare right there!).

Cheers

Alan
