From the Lincolnshire Echo:
Swiss Des going back to his old job as a barrister? 
RAF CORPORAL FACING £270K WRIT OVER CRASH
08:00 - 04 June 2008
A Lincolnshire RAF corporal is facing a claim for nearly £300,000 after he crashed his TVR car into three aircraft engines belonging to the Ministry of Defence.
Matthew G*******s, who is based at RAF Waddington, lost control of his TVR Chimera at RAF Odiham in Hampshire, crashing into three containers with aircraft engines, according to a High Court writ.
The accident caused damage put at £270,233.43 to the engines, the writ says.
Now the Secretary of State for Defence is suing Cpl G*******s for the cost of damage to its property after the accident on April 8, 2002.
He negligently failed to keep a proper lookout, drove too fast and failed to avoid colliding with the three containers, the writ claims.

I particularly liked the way you then let slip his real name 3 lines later!
I'll amend the original post though!
