Re: Travel insurance

Clive,

Your experience seems similar to mine.
Some companies do provide such cover but it is proving very expensive, when compared to the cover I have had for the past 12 months.

Re: Webpage resetting and losing post/reply

I have just carried out another test using MS Edge. I logged in to the forum a few days ago and didn't log out after my visit. I checked the forum this morning and I am still logged in!

Re: Re-weighing
