<gom mode> There is no such thing as an accident any more. And it's not so much 'Lucky to be alive' as it is 'Deleriously happy for the opportunity to claim a packet on your insurance' these days. Ultimately it's bad for all of us in the end, since we end up with crazy situations where we have city councils spending more on settlements than they do on repairing the dodgy footpaths that generate the claims... we pay more for Council Tax and insurance, and we have people banning activities that might expose them to some ludicrous claim. </gom mode> Sean -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
