It’s the hottest day of the year (so far) and the thermometer in our cottage tells me that it’s 22 degrees Celsius – it feels like a Summer’s day, which is a welcome change after the freezing winds and snow of just a few weeks ago.
I started a couple of tasks on my “To Do” list yesterday which involved me researching prices for some mailing bags and also a travel insurance policy for our holiday later this year. Finding the most competitive price for the mailing bags is relatively easy, so I buy them on eBay and cross the task off my list. A travel insurance policy is a bit more involved because I have to declare my medical condition and then check through all of the fine print to ensure that the policy is actually worth having – I’m a bit of a sceptic where insurance is concerned, and I think that (by and large) it’s a scam, and the insurance companies have so many “get out” clauses to avoid having to pay out on claims… Eventually, I settle on a policy, purchase it online and cross another task off my list. I intended to make some more progress with editing my wife’s youngest son’s wedding video, but I have a doctor’s appointment this afternoon and a speech therapy appointment in Norwich tomorrow morning, so I decide to choose a subject for my weekly vlog and start researching and scripting it – if I leave it all until I return from Norwich tomorrow, I’ll be struggling to get it finished.
