Two hundred and seventy pounds for climbing up a ladder and sticking a new aerial on top of the roof? Two hundred and seventy pounds?! TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY POUNDS??!!
… my heart… can’t take the strain… life flashing before eyes…. goodbye cruel world…
What? It’s covered on the house insurance? Well two hundred and seventy pounds is quite reasonable really. After all, I bet their insurance premiums are very high. I wonder if they could upgrade the aerial in any way – gold plated connectors or something. After all, anything less than the best would be a false economy really.

Not only are all the channels back, but the picture is better than before, so all is well. The house insurance helpline had a recorded message telling anyone with storm damage under £750 to go ahead with repairs. Sounds like they’re a bit busy.
For those of you who were worried, we still had E4 1 so I got to watch ER.

Do you think you’ll have your insurance premium go up now though, since you’ve had a claim? That’s the way they’d do it over here.

Still, I’m sure that the insurance company won’t be petty enough to do that. After all, the whole purpose of their being is to help people when they need it most isn’t it? Surely they can’t possibly be motivated puely by profit, willing to rip off their customers at the slightest excuse?
Oh shit, we’re screwed.
