Nod cannot do things online so he is at the mercy of people in shops and so on.

Before the Canaries trip last September he went to the Post Office to purchase travel insurance. It seemed expensive. THe young lass at the counter explained that this was because the Canaries were in Africa  facepalm:. Nod put her right.

Today he returned to the Post Office to purchase insurance for Seville.  Same girl.
£86!! For a week!

I think the cost is less to do with the destination and more to do with the travellers...  whistle:

Given that the industry is working it's way through each type so that it can keep itself profitable it's only a matter of time before we start seeing adverts about making claims for wrongfully sold holiday insurance...  noooo:
