I got a house insurance renewal letter today. There's a £65 increase over last year's price. I guess I'll be shopping around again.

I knew it would happen though because I had to make a claim for a water leak earlier this year. Insurance is a con. You end up paying for it yourself in the end through increased premiums and the policy excess charge (in my case £100). Barstewards.

Made myself (dining sans compagnon) for supper a classic risotto with proper riso dalla Maremma Toscana . Finished off with heaps of parmigiana and butter stirred in to release the delicious starches from the rice.
Small problem , the kitchen looks as though a culinary bomb has recently exploded
