Business Insurance and the Nativity!

It is a sad fact these days that the true meaning of Christmas is lost in the commercial frenzy that we take for granted so bearing this in mind, and working on the principle that ‘if you can’t beat them join them’, here’s a quick take on the nativity from a business insurance perspective!

Christmas Insurance Fraud – Santa Pulls One

My attention has been drawn to a fire within the grounds of Chessington World of Adventures and Zoo, where Santa’s Grotto has been consumed with flames. Now call me a cynic but I think Santa’s pulling a fast one here. This reeks of insurance fraud!

The Most Popular Company Cars

Last week we reported that motor traders are becoming concerned over the fact that car manufacturers are planning on producing more new vehicles as of March, meaning that traders will have to start making deals in order to get rid of their old stock before the new comes in.  This will be a lot easier […]

On The Piste? – Winter Sports Travel Insurance

Quentin Investigates… Hotel California – Hotel Insurance

Hello again chaps! Sorry I haven’t been around for a while, I’ve been re-evaluating my empty shell of a life. You may recall when I started writing for CompareCrazy I had just had a bit of an acrimonious split from the other half and I moved temporarily into a hotel so I thought I’d write […]

Golfing In Mexico? You Could Be Lunch! – Travel Insurance

It was reported in the press a couple of weeks ago that a British tourist, Dougie Thomson,58, of Wishaw near Glasgow, was playing golf at the Iberostar Cancun Hotel complex in Mexico, when he hit a poor shot into a bunker. At this stage I’m almost certain the last thing on Dougie’s mind was his […]
