L43-1: Fullyinsured

Insurancecompanies are normally willing to insure anything. Insuring public or privateproperty is a standard practice in most countries in the world. If, however,you were holding an open air garden party or a fete it would be equallypossible to insure yourself in the event of bad weather. Needless to say, thebigger the risk an insurance company takes, the higher the premium you willhave to pay. It is not uncommon to hear that a shipping company has made aclaim for the cost of salvaging a sunken ship. But the claim made by a localauthority to recover the cost of salvaging a sunken pie dish must surely beunique. Admittedly it was an unusual pie dish, for it was eighteen feet longand six feet wide. It had been purchased by a local authority so that an enormouspie could be baked for an annual fair. The pie committee decided that the bestway to transport the dish would be by canal, so they insured it for the trip.
