DURING the Golden Jubilee bank holiday weekend, while I was on holiday in Ireland, somebody drove along Marsh Terrace in Darwen and smashed their vehicle into the side of mine, then drove off without reporting it.

This is just to inform the person that it will cost me £300 to get it repaired and I certainly hope that it will cost them more to get their vehicle mended.
