Maybe not as safe as they would make us believe.[:0]
If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.

Funds paid to date accepted as F&F 16th August 2013, the wait for completion begins.

It's worrying to think I've got more chance of being lamped by a falling satellite than I have of winning the lottery!

True Skippy, but that's got nothing to do with me increasing the wife's insurance policy[}:)]

The odds of it landing on you are not 3200/1. The odds quoted are 3200/1 that it'll land on ANYONE.

The actual odds of it landing on you are about 3200/1 that it'll land on anyone multiplied by the chances that you are that person. Assuming everyone has an equal chance of being landed on, that's 7000000000+/1

Or: 22400000000000/1
Or: 22 trillion, 400 billion to one

Relax, you're safe
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
