    WOW!
    You can tell between 'desperation' and 'shrill' just by reading the words! :rotfl:
    Aren't you the clever one?

    What part of

    are you having difficulty in understanding?
    I personally don't feel the necessity to comment on my financial situation but as you obviously feel the need to keep mentioning your wealth, maybe you should seek help for your obvious insecurities.

    I'm not unnerved by someone who doesn't choose to buy travel insurance.
    Why would I be unnerved?

    You choose not to buy because you can fund every single eventuality which might occur on your foreign travels.
    Not everybody can - but you are still extolling the idea that buying travel insurance is a con.

    Thanks for your concern, I have a holiday booked to Goa next month - and I have both travel insurance and buildings/contents insurance - because unlike you I don't rely on statistics. :cool:

    And, as you are so fond of statisitcs, why not count the number of posters who agree with your viewpoint and the number who disagree?

    Oh, there'll be Yoghurt....
    and Yoghurt....



    I can't hear you now above the noise of you stamping your feet.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    That's what my wife says when she's in the saddle :D
    But it's nice to see youve found something slightly more interesting to post about than what you're having to eat today.
    Quite the dullard aren't you .

    Not at all.
    I've been quite reasonable about stating the reasons why I think travel insurance is a con.
    You are the one who has become increasingly splenetic over that simple statement .

    Ignore Nobjocki (I agree it's a very apt name), you can always tell when someone is losing in a debate - they go scurrying round checking up on posts that have no relelvance to the one under discussion.

    Me and how many others, Nobjocki?

    Or are you embarrassed to admit that there's not a lot of people standing on your side of the fence?
