I’ve always been reasonably gruntled, myself.

The insurance will cover it!

Don't you imagine that Mercedes is mostly self-insured with a deductible in the million(s)?

It seems that in UK they use this term for heavy machinery.

In this case the machine was a Front Wheel Loader, made by CAT

Those re-creations are interesting. I’d forgotten about them. Amazing how some of the accidents happen. And often as I’m watching I go “Oh -oh - I see where this is going...” (and I’m just a layman when it comes to flying.).

Had that card when I lived in Japan. Their service was amazing. The only competitor which came close was American Express.

But JCB one-upped even AmEx. They had service counters at the major airports and even some train stations and could get you coupons or reservations for darn near anything.
