re insurance

Yes leon,for something like that,and the items I had of a similar amount.

Really just not worth the hassle.

I will be at their office cancelling the insurance on the one shed that has had the most damage.

The other work shed,which has contents supposedly valued at 5000 insurance,I seriously think I will cancel it too,

And just have house contents/car/labilty insurance (and portable valuable insurance on telescope/camera gear listed).

Still wonder if it would really be insured.

While,these claims are not so major,and has opened my eyes,and saved me money in the long run.

I now know the shed that had the most damage,I asked the insurance guy when he was here,if it would be covered if a wind storm came,he said yes.
I now know for a fact they would not pay,because they would use the same excuse they just gave me.So while this current issue is a hassle,I will save money over the next few years.

I had some exotic rainforest timber damaged,might start building a ark out of it.
