    Toto......why is there always a pillock doing their best to screw things up?!

    PaP......dont go for the 'cost of replacement' Pet Insurance it tends to push the price up considerably!

    BTW, ......fitting a 'hydrogen on demand' kit ( a jam jar filled with distilled water and bi-carb connected to electricity to separate the ydrogen off and feed it into the engine!) at a cost of less than £30 has increased my mpg by at least 10%:D:T:T

    and your life insurance by the same i bet!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    This is what really annoys me pepe, some stupid bint has made a bit of a booboo, oh well, she can get on with her day on her nice salary. We stand to lose 40 dates of work and that is worth some people's entire year's salary. I'm not saying that to show off, this is the big tour of the year and will cover us for all of the lean months to come.

    Honestly, it took half an hour to fit and all I've done since then is top up the water and add half a tsp of bicarb today.

    we all know that people in Offices are immune from getting a kicking when it goes wrong!
    If I knock a light on the truck, I get a carpeting and a warning.....some moron in the office forgets to print a collection note meaning a 200 mile round trip and the accompanying extra £200+ expenses and NOTHING happens!!!
    Am I bitter..............

    How old is Rolo?? Charlie is £17 per month now and he has just turned 8. He was £6 a month or so up to when he was about 5 and then it started to jump up.

    Thanks pepe, The problem is basic polices (I can cover both cats for £10 a month) is they are a rolling cover so if your cat is ill in year one with a lifetime condition they will only pay out for the policy cover. Therefore after 12months when the policy is auto-renewed that condition is seen as an existing condition and the policy wont cover it. It would be just my luck that one of the cats will get such 'condition'. The 'life of the animal' is supposed to be the best insurance on the market, and reading the thread it would seem there are three insurers that cover this and petplan is the cheapest for me. I cant amend the policy to save money so even though I may not go abroad etc etc its added onto the policy :confused:

    I think I am just going to get it you know (if indeed I get the kitty tonight) because its better to be safe than sorry eh :rolleyes: On a side note I can get a discount through my vets for his jabs and nutering because Thomas is registered there :T Sorry OCD of me checking everything before I actually get the kitten :rotfl:
