I wonder what 'restricted terrorism cover' might entail. I can just imagine them trying to avoid paying out on the grounds that it was the wrong type of terrorists or cowboy terrorists.

Comic Sans is the least of its problems. Even by freebie, hobby rag standards it's dreadful.

I wonder how much it costs for a front page quarter with them? As they, and Fleur Graphics (situated at the same address) don't seem to have a web presence perhaps we'll never know.


As for the content - opportunists, but why not.

If you already have life insurance, fire insurance for your car/house, etc etc, surely that must cover you for everything a terrorist could do to you?

Is it not in the small print that "acts of terrorism" are NOT covered on a lot of policies?

I dunno, I don't pay attention to 'petty details' like that. :lol:

About 15 years ago Private Eye ran a true story they'd got from the RAF News.
It seems that RAF personnel stationed on the Falklands were in the habit of referring to the locals as "Bennys" as they shared the dress sense and (allegedly) some of characteristics of the Crossroads character.
The locals complained and orders to desist were duly issued.
A while later an officer observed that the men had a new nickname for the locals -"Stills".
Taking an NCO to one side he enquired, "Why do you call them "stills"?".
The reply was, "Because they're still Bennys Sir" :lol: :lol:

I have no idea! I just thought that the cover might be the same whether the damage is caused by terrorism or any other type of crime.
