    imo it's better to put the money you'd have to hand insurance company aside and raise your excess and reduce the value of insurance to the book value.

    Typical of the UK. We're a bunch of f**king saps and they know it. Same as energy prices, compare what we have paid here over the last 3 years in comparison to Europe.

    it's about competition.

    I'd assume there is a cosy little nod and wink mentality under the present tories and a few raids of offices would not go astray to find evidence of cartel thinking.

    prices only come down or stay low when there's genuine competition

    Well no, I guess if you fancy playing a game of ‘Hope a Police car is never behind me’ then go for it.

    Little lad is well into wrestling and knows everything there is to know.

    Roman Reigns, John Cena, Finn Balor etc etc

    Anyway got tickets to a wrestling bout on Saturday, been before with him and he loved it. Ok its not the WWE Wrestlemania but he doesnt care.

    Wonder if Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks are on.

    Just had my assessment session with the Neuro Physio - she seems rather hopeful and confident that they can help me a lot.
    Now I just need to learn how to walk again :)

    Little lad is seven and a half and his reading is what a ten year old should be at. Also his spelling is off the scale his teacher told us being beyond what the expected level should be.

    She showed us a graph of where a seven year old should be and he was well above it.

    Smarty bum as he is.
