    Have you priced up First Call GB... it doesn't appear on cashback sites but I think their UK cover is only about £43. I've been with them for 4 years and my last car I had to call them out three times in one year but had no complaints. It insures the car though, not the person so it depends on how this compares to RAC or AA. Keep the Tesco vouchers for fun things, you earnt them!


    Sounds good, can you give me more details about them?

    Had a good cash day!

    Returned lots of things and got refunds, spent £5.98 on a hat with ear bits and a calculator. (Thats a seperate calculator - it's not part of the hat!)

    Did shopping at Asda- cost just over £23:j And i have four loaves of bread and four pints of milk - anyone would think its snowing:rolleyes:

    Did two MS jobs...if I ever say i'm tempted to do a mobile phone MS you have pemission to hit me! I hate the job itself, takes a long time to do and the write up afterwards it dreadful:mad:.

    Couldn't do my extra shift tonight due to the snow - bum!

    Calculator one side, stop watch the other side. Look out for the mystery shopper in the inconspicuous hat ....

    Perhaps 'Kipling' will start making a hat like that! Would be a must for all mystery shoppers!! Thank for the idea GG.:D

    Dinah i'm glad I made you laugh - hubby didn't know wether to laugh or cry when I put it on last night (and that was minus the calculators;))

    Stuck at home today due to snow, hubby tried to get to work but had to abandon the car:eek:. There are no buses running so thats me stuck.

    On the plus side I have sorted out the savings and we are now at an offset of 69.16%:j. Aw that 70% is so close:j. Should bust through it when the wages come in later in the month:T.

    I have built a snow man - all by myself- next doors little boy is currently out there making him look a bit better. Us oldies are not good and making great snowmen!
