Insurance companies should be shot!

Grrrr! Oooh they just rattle my cage. The saga continues...

I buy my bike for £1995 and insure it for £2000
It gets stolen 2 months later
Insurance offer me £1600
I complain, I want £2000
They offer me £1650 (hah!) and 'proof' it's only worth that
So today I write back with 'proof' it's worth £2450 and copy the letter to my 'solicitors' - I still want £2000...

Don't forget they take off £300 excess anyway.. and besides I had to spend a year's worth of insurance (£600).. and I'll have to reinsure myself again (with a theft claim) for a year when I get a new bike, so I'm just very very broke and pissed off.

Aaaanyway, Ric, my partner in crime at Orange is back over in America at the moment, and his son's partner has just given birth to a boy, making him a Granddad! Wooh! Congratulations Ric :) Now just remember what I said.. don't try and teach him shell scripting until he's at least 2 weeks old!

Cruising through journals. Just thought I'd say hi. HI! >wave

Hehe hi! I like random people commenting in my journal. I hope you've got email alerts turned on 'cause otherwise you're almost certainly not going to see this in the morass of other random comments you've had back lol ;)

Just wondering what prompted you to comment in mine, and how you stumbled across it?

I just hit random, and your journal popped up. And I just like saying hi to everyone.
