A thump on the doormat ....

[TheOstrich]

.... and it's yet another hefty revision booklet for "Worldwide Travel Insurance", a freebie which came with some bank account or other from long ago in the primeval mists of time.

Idly browsing through it, I see clause 9,844 on page 762 tells me I have no cover if I choose to go "Banana boating".

Whut?

I have no idea what Banana Boating is ....... Oh! wait a moment ......

Altogether now:

Hey, Meesta Talleyman, talley me banana
I need to pay insurance, so I can go home
Insurance company, refuse to send me moolah
I need to pay insurance, so I can go home ...

DEYYYYYY-OH - Dey-ey-ey-oh,
I need to pay insurance, so I can go ho-ome
Dey-oh, Dey-ey-ey-oh,
I need to pay insurance, so I can go home .....

[Rodo]

I'll help you eat the bananas.

[Aggers]

I'll help you, too -

if there are any straight ones.

[Kaz]

Yes, this could be serious, according to EU Directive number 564,789,000 - bananas should be straight! It didn't say anything about them going boating - wouldn't they slip and fall overboard?

[JoM]

I could just see you splashing around on a banana boat too Ossie!

Ossie, I'm going to blame you - I've now got that song stuck in my head!!!!!!!!!
