    It's arrived :D It has no one but two photos of that half-dead woman in it but I expect I'll grow into them :roll:

    Now the travel insurance :? Last year it took us 45 mins per call :x

    Can't you do that on line? Or maybe you just like to chat, :? or is it that lovely "On Hold" music that floats your boat? :lol:

    :oops: OK, it's actually because we have so many things to list between us, we feel safer if they are there to prompt us. One year I completely forgot to mention the cancer I had nearly 20 years ago :o:lol:

    Where are you going? I hope it's somewhere really nice after all this :lol:
    I must say though, you'll be missed, by me anyway. Isn't it quiet on here?

    Somewhere very lovely. LA to see the family. But not yet. Insurance to get, flights etc.

    Hurrah! First hurdle successfully clambered over but the second may be a greater obstacle. I'll be there to give you a bunk-up. Does anyone have any suggestions for music for a travel insurance 'on hold' call? My starter for ten:

    'I left my heart in San Francisco'

    'Fly me to the Moon'

    'Leaving on a Jet Plane'

    Ah DD, every year before we go I find myself singing 'California Dreaming' and the year we went to San Fran. we drove up there to the strains of 'Are You Going to San Francisco?' YES.

    Travel insurance is on hold 'til I sort out this COPD fiasco. However, I can report that yesterday, the day after I got the new passport, I got an envelope containing my old one with a note that my new one was 'being processed' and I'd receive it shortly :roll:

    Right hands and left hands, I presume, Applerose.

    Right, my meagre contribution to on-hold music for travel insurers is:

    Day Tripper

    Hello, Goodbye

    Ticket to Ride
