Definitely something for me to watch for, I always test for ketones when I suspect my daughter is ill, I’ve actually never seen her have a fever. 97.7 wow! I remember when covid was at its worst here, we had messages from the hospital telling us to test frequently and adjust doses accordingly.

I’m not a bright man and this is an honest question, are you a diabetic? If so that’s really interesting as my daughter is type one, I find that quite fascinating that you don’t get a fever and something for me to look out for.

No optional extras.

Actually I did get last year’s quote wrong, last year I paid 583 which is considerably less than I said (my memory is going)

It went upto £998. Still seems excessive to me, I’m bang on 50, never claimed, never had an accident & have all my no claims.

Same here, last years premium was £442, this year Hastings upped it to £992, they called it an insurance premium tax. This is on a 1.0 Ford Ka+. I used a comparison site and managed to get it to a little cheaper than last years quote.

When I called Hastings to make sure auto renewal didn’t go through they reckoned they could probably match last year’s quote, I refused and explained that I didn’t like they idea they were taking the piss so just cancel it.
