An Act of God versus the Insurance Company’s.

[Johnny Kieran]

I knew some blokes that worked at Tate's, and after telling them about it, they always shrugged it off. Maybe they processed it all? I know I always think about it, even these days, whenever I see demerara sugar. How do you wash crap out of sugar?

I well remember on a Sugar boat, loading sugar in Trinidad. Barges came out, and locals were down the hatch spreading with shovels. I often stood watching them, while one would stop for a crap or wee into the sugar, then just cover it. None of them ever came out of the hold to do their business.
I often asked if anything was done about it, but the answer was always a shrug.
Sugar anyone?

Hi Johnny
Maybe that is why they call some jams sweet and sour.

It will be on for young and old this year as new insurance policy's come in.
It has been estimated that the efforts in Queensland will push car insurance up by anything to 15% and house by about 10%
More cars written off in the floods than houses effected.
It is not an act of God, more an act of bastardry by the insurance companies.

Hi John.
I think that the older ones house or car gets the cheaper the insurance should get, that is the way we work, every time we get the NMRA Insurance for either it has gone up, we put it down to the level it was before, they say they can only pay so much on that amount, we tell them OK.

That was a nice turn of phrase John, I will have to remember that.
