I have a Zoom meeting from 9.00am to 8.00pm so I'm staying indoors l day. It was freezing fog last night across the fields. We held a meeting in the pub on account of it having a larger room and being warm. It was a working event and we were socially distanced. And I made sure there were no sneaky paparazzi around. 3 1 Quote

She’s been busy painting the walls and ceiling in the master bedroom over the last two days. I did paint three of the roof beams and part of the ceiling that should couldn’t reach (scared of heights) in the en suite. I laid the OSB down in the en suite yesterday and now we’re waiting for the experts to lay the finished flooring (Karndene) 1 Quote

MikeHorton Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Non bike related but sorted household insurance today. Renewal price £30 higher than last year as usual no claims and having upgraded all the doors and locks etc. A comparison search reduced it by 40 and a call to the current insurer reduced it by £60 does pay to shop around before calling the renewal line. Policy expert I can't complain other than they do try it on with the renewal price! Quote

I understand that the law (FCA Rules?) is being changed to stop them charging existing customers more than new customers. Mind, that assumes a lot about individual circumstances. Quote
Steve_M Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Good evening. My good lady has been summoned to care for one of the grandchildren during tomorrow. I have a choice of tasks around the house and garden, including planting trees and putting up fences. However. Tomorrow I will be riding my motorbike. YAY! 5 Quote

Fook for what aviva charged me for business insurance they should have sent you a jar of caviar wrapped in £20 notes. 2 Quote

I never was much good at shopping around… as needs must, I guess. Quote
