Sorry to hear about this, it's just one of those things that you've just got to grin and bear it. No chance of claiming on your insurance but at least you're ok which is the main thing and the damage could have been worse.
Sometime freak things happen. When I was 18 I was stuck behind a flatbed lorry when a bit of pipe about a foot long came bouncing off the back of it. With a wall to the left of me and traffic coming the other way on the right I just had to brace myself with everything going in slow motion before I hit the pipe and the windscreen was then covered in glass. After slowing down and stopping I found that one of front headlights was completely gone, the front left wing was mangled to bits and this had pushed part of the bonnet in also. After I'd cleared the glass from the light off the windscreen I saw a mark on the roof just above the windscreen from where the pipe had hit the roof before bouncing off to... somewhere!! Scary to thinbk it could have gone straight through. (It hadn't hit anyone else as nobody stopped, just got a load of beeps and v-signs for pulling over and holding people up). Like you I couldn't claim as I'd no number for the lorry. In these cases you're more concerned about looking after yourself than thinking about noting numbers down!
Just got to keep your chin up mate and put it down as just bad luck. Hopefully it may not cost as much to put right as you think.
