    Thanks Ray. They came top/cheapest of my moneysupermarket quotes, but didn't beat my existing insurer Esure (a few weeks ago).
    I didn't even look at the detail ie per mile etc.
    I pay £170 to have a relatively new bmw estate parked up and if I do the same amount of miles I did last year I expect to top that up by another 25 quid. My best fully comp quote elsewhere was £250. 
    Do you mind if I ask what miles you do
    ....ball park 




    I’ve not done over 1500 miles a year for over 3 years which was when we used to kennel the dogs in Northampton. Last year taking them to The Valley 3 times took my mileage too around 1300 miles. To find an insurance company that charges only when I use it is a dream. 
  • New flat being near Gunnersbury Park. Bedroom windows open and listening to The Specials headline a day festival. Haven’t seen them live in a few years but they still sound superb.

  • That will fuel the rebels for a couple of weeks. Cheers. See you on the streets on Oct 7th

  • A very specific thing that pleased me. Seeing the "We are undefeatable" charities advert and noticing a Charlton protest shirt in the background.  Well done that man, whoever you are!


  • Driving to Wales and finding out they've scrapped the toll. Time to do it at Dartford now.

    Having had 3 months off work following my redundancy I’ve just landed a job as Design Studio Manager for The Royal British Legion based at Borough High Street.
    Its particularly pleasing because Military History is a huge interest to me!
    Even though I don’t start until next Monday they invited me to the Imperial War Museum yesterday to view some films from the Museums archives on a Steenbeck 35mm projector, then we all went for a drink!
    Well pleased!
    Congratulations on the new job!!

    Zzzzz WW2&THG now up....
  • Orwell Mayhem is an anagram of Yellowhammer.  
  • While descending the Bakerloo escalator at Paddington this morning, seeing a small Charlton athletic sticker stuck to one of the digital advertising screens.
    Another further down has been partially removed, but well done that man!
    (I obviously do not condone mindless acts of petty vandalism. Except this one)

  • looks more like perching on a row of bar stools for their future, but hey ho, good for them
  • My eye was randomly caught by this chap on the net. 

    It is of a character so often quoted on CL I'd begun to wonder what this Cnut actually looked like.  To give him full title it is 'Cnut The Great'.  Deeper reading gave me the knowledge that he once ruled England having landed at Greenwich, although there is no record of him taking in a game as he had an important fixture at Brentford to attend to.  

    Although of Danish origin I was delighted to read that he adopted the cockney sense of humour when he named his son Harthacnut.  


  • Another year of sick & terminally ill children & their families enjoying a weekend away at Disneyland creating priceless memories :)
    I bet they bypassed South London somehow.  :smiley:
