ZOMBIE ZONE

Wilson arrived at Tesco only to find the pumpkins sealed off behind what he later described as Zombie HazMat Tape, marked 'Caution: Zombie Zone' and 'Haunted: Keep Out.' 

Ever circumspect, he found a member of staff and asked her to remove his chosen pumpkins for him. Actually, he asked her to carry them to the checkout for him as well, but she assured him that once the pumpkins were in his shopping trolley they were fully de-zombified and no longer dangerous.


When he arrived home, I had some bad news for him: the insurance company, in spite of my having Fully Comprehensive Cover on the house and its contents, had refused to pay me for the damage caused by the wasps!


I thought this was an outrage, but a little research on Google revealed that it is the standard practice of that Nest of Weasels we call the Insurance Industry — they will pay to have vermin removed, but will not pay for the damage they have caused.


Looks as though I shall be reliant of Wilson to fix the hole in the ceiling after all…
