I know of a way to get five star accommodation at a particular resort in Madeira at a fraction of the official rate and want to advertise this at no profit to myself. Gumtree seem to have changed...

Our home insurance has a stipulation that we can only leave the property unoccupied for a maximum of 60 days at a time. It turns out that the underwriters might consider several 30 day absences (or...
Ahead of me in the security search at Boston Logan Airport was a woman carrying a medium sized bag clutched to her chest and out of the bag protruded the head of a real, live dog. She was two or three...
I am curious: When someone dies owning physical things of value in addition to, say, investments (virtual/paper assets), their estate is valued and Inheritance Tax is levied accordingly. What about...
Does anyone know where I might obtain off-road insurance for a motorhome ? What I would want is fire and theft cover, and at most perhaps accidental/malicious damage cover too while SORNed and off the...
It appears to me that there are no flights on this leg departing after 1930 on 27th April next - if that is incorrect then please tell me. We are arriving at Boston with just under an hour available...
