I farewelled my old insurance company today.

It was sad, really. I'd been with them forever and they'd always been terrific to deal with.

But my renewal was coming up in a couple of weeks and I'd decided it wasn't smart not to have a policy that covered me while I was working as an Uber driver as well as driving privately. The Uber TOS are far too vague to rely on and in any case don't cover you while you're waiting for or on your way to a ride.

So I phoned my (very well known) insurance company.
