Arters, sorry to hear that you've needed the services of BUPA recently - I hope you're hale and hearty again now?
I too joined BUPA after the Defence Medical Services were binned and I can confirm that the lower subscription rates still applied
after I'd B&Y'd from the RAF. These days it's about £100 per month which is quite a chunk out of my pension - like any insurance policy, I guess
That Benenden thing sounds interesting - but
only if it has some connection with the nearby gels-of-school.... From the
Daily Torygraph:
The upper sixth form girls made their own recording of Rockstar in which they are shown miming along to the song.
The girls at the exclusive £26,000 a year school were filmed wearing furs and St Trinian's style school uniforms, washing cars in bikini tops, and crammed in a bubble bath.
Not sure that'd do one's blood pressure much good though....
