    Sounds tasty.

    Mine is beef n' beer stew with some rather nice aged beef, carrots, celery, onions, garlic, porcini and tulipake mushrooms. Cooked it last might, so all I need to do today is re-heat and boil some spuds to accompany it.

        I don't want to make a claim, and by all accounts they often use a loophole to get out of paying for this sort of thing (the fuel tank counts as being outside the vehicle, and they only insure stuff left inside - gits), but then again, not reporting it is the kind of thing they'd use to weasel out of a legitimate claim for some entirely unrelated incident at a later date
        They'll increase your premium.

          Bit short notice, but that's the way it goes, I suppose. On the bright side, you weren't overly enthusiastic about it, were you?
          Thats right, I wasn't keen on it. 5 developers working on a 20 year old code base with no source control.

          Lucks like I might have dodged a bullet

                  Well my neck has loosened up sufficiently thanks to my cocktail, now all I need to do is open up the vino.

                  Stew is warming, will put the spuds on once the beasties has been fed, apparently I'm 4 mins late with tea.

                  NorPussII sat behind me on the sofa flicking his tail in my face every time I took a sip.

                      your premium will go up.

                      p.s. you should also inform the ins co for the other car if it's different.


                      I wouldn't bother.
