Good morning. It is 39°F and partly cloudy here at 11.43am in NE England. Billy Connolly is a Scottish comedian who I don't think is funny. I like Minestrone soup. I hope everyone is safe and well. Best wishes to all dailyites especially those doing our favourite pastime of Cruising.- 88 replies

It was very cold in North East England in the winters of late 1950s and 1960s. We enjoyed our port visit to Cobh on Independence of the seas in May 2018. We were staying in Dublin New year 1999 and New year 2020 and have also stayed in Belfast. -

I'm pleased for you. Heart attacks and strokes as well as being serious health conditions massively increase holiday insurance premiums for life and statins can help prevent them. -

When I was a child we had deep snow every winter. Now we just get days of continuous rain with our milder temperatures now. -

In hindsight 5 years ago I wish I had ignored friends advising against Statins because of their side effects as it might have prevented my heart attack a year later. -

P&O Cruisers - What are things like where YOU are?

I agree. Insurance expect you to tell them everything and if you are waiting for a diagnosis when renewing they won't renew until you get a diagnosis. After my heart attack we rang insurance and they cancelled our annual policy immediately and I had to insure with a specialist medical insurance company. A friend had a mini stroke and their insurance cancelled their policy immediately. I understand at the time I was told doctor's were encouraged to get people on to statins. If you can it pays to actually ask to see what is on your medical history at the doctor's because if you claim insurance will do this. -
Selbourne ‘Live’ from Aurora’s 2024 Grand Tour

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear this. On our 14 night Canary Islands cruise on Iona in November there was an emergency ambulance with blue lights on at every port stop. -

Insurance asked this on our renewal but they didn't know what number was classed as raised only if doctor had said it was. 5 or under is okay. I remember 5 years ago my cholesterol was 4 and doctor said it was raised from 3.5 the previous year and I needed statins. I refused statins at that time but a statin was put on my medical record anyway even though I didn't get it. I have been on statins as required after my heart attack 4 years ago and my reading is 2.5. -
