I am hoping to book it myself without agency millykin. But I could try them for insurance I guess. Thanks

Haven't got one at the mo but I generally start by looking at multiple reviews eg
http://www.reviewcentre.com/products696.html. I tend to look at those with a good no of reviews.

More expensive ones would be JL, M&S, Saga.

Imagine an annual policy is probably better value than a one-off?

I've used Staysure last few years as many don't include things like asthma, high blood pressure. Not cheap though, but doubt many are these days.

I do the accounts for an insurance brokers and although we don't do an awful lot of holiday insurance the three we use the most are :- CityBond, David Oliver and Tokio.  I think you can access them all online......

Thanks very much ladies, as always you have come up trumps.

The reviews link is helpful oldsheep, thank you

Sometimes I think I research and look too deeply into things, but I do like to be thorough and get the best deal

Not been well today, so will start again tomorrow

Thanks again.  PN x x
