    Oh what a shame you had to take a day ... but when you need it, you do. Maybe now you've found such a good fit your immune system will bounce back (I wish mine would!).

    Sleep well, pipster :kisses3:

    Hey there KC well better to get better than be sick eh?

    I'm feeling a bit brighter today, I'll ignore the gunk coming off my chest. Not bonnie.

    Today's an admin and work from home kinda day.

    Morning lands and thank you so much for all your kind wishes.

    I need to find car insurance to suit having two shared cars might ring my own one and see what they say.

    We're third party on each others cars, but these are now being driven by both of us when we get the new one, so I'd like us both fully comp on both.

    Ponders ponders.

    Not sure if it is different in Scotland (?) but what we do in our family is to have the cars insured fully comp with multiple named drivers. OH has me as a named driver on his truck insurance as it apparently makes it cheaper - even though it would be downright dangerous if I drove it :eek::rotfl:

    For my car, it is insured for me (obviously) with OH and my daughter, who borrows it sometimes, as named drivers, all fully comp :)

    It doesn't seem to make it more expensive, though it might do I guess if one of the potential drivers had recent insurance claims or driving convictions. What do others do?
