    Hi Wol, been a while since i posted, but i always pop in to see how you're doing.

    Hope you manage to trounce the insurance company.
    I hate it when they just turn around and say you're not covered for this or that.

    Any yup, another validation from me too.
    You may think that when you post on here to update what's been happening is just a release, but when others read how you are battling through everything that's getting thrown at you, you are a great example of courage and a source of inspiration.

    Not to mention that your thread is one of the smuttiest going...

    Wol - I have my insurances with Hiscox..had public liability with them and then when my more than policy expired for the prof indemnity then I gave that to Hiscox too. More Than were rubbish but they did send me two lots of £50 capital bond vouchers:rotfl:..I spent them. Need to consider contents insurance with hiscox too but my travel insurance is with Insure&Go - I got a good deal which covers me for business too:cool:

    Need to arrange a trip to the docs - have been coughing a lot today (yesterday)..so much that it makes me ill which is a sure sign that I have a touch of bronchitis:mad:

    Piggies can have the carrot seeds - I hate growing carrots.

    S'pose I had better think about going to bed now..laters xx

    Don't work too hard, Wol.

    So what you got planned for the Friday:eek::rotfl:

    ..I do NOT believe the weather foreast for Good Friday here is SNOW :eek::eek:
    Oh well - looks like it's going to be cleaning away the rest of the cobwebs on friday then Numpty ;):rotfl:

    And the temperature over Easter is going to be below freezing and with a wind chill factor bringing it down to -7 . :eek::eek::eek::eek:. At least bank holiday monday is going to be sunny...:)..but extremely cold......:mad:

    So looks like I'll be blowing a few more squids putting on the heating again..:rotfl::rotfl:

    Good friday = almost a week out = a forecast of locusts is equally likely to happen...

    That's today's forecast for then. Tomorrow's is that it's going to be so hot all the roads will melt. My parents believed a forecast for the day after - it was still wrong...
