    Your home insurance can be extended to cover personal effects eg a lap top, clothing and other items you would normally carry about your person for circa £30 a year. This will normally cover you anywhere in the UK and Europe, it will also normally cover outside of Europe typically for upto 60 days a year (Check with the Insurers for their exact restrictions)

    Yes. Your home insurance. Mine covers my laptop at home and away from home (including abroad).
