I called up Direct Line's number for existing motor insurance customers and they actually answered quite quickly (about 3 minutes in a queue, rather than half an hour like I expected). And then, even better, they're going to send me (for free) a copy of my certificate overnight, so hopefully I'll get it in the next couple days - in time to tax my car.

Also, the hideous code at work I thought I'd have to write is turning out to be fairly easy. I've decided to use Access to call the emails in Outlook, rather than use Outlook to push the info into Access (as I've been shown) and this has made life very easy. I'm reading plain text in a CSV type format, and using Split() I managed to break it all up to store into the table (rather than having to use Word to search for things, like I was shown in the Outlook demo). Suddenly I don't feel quite so worried about this deadline.

It snowed a couple times today, not enough to settle though. Maybe it was just because I was the other side of town, where the humidity is fine, but today has been a good day. It turns out the hygrometer we have can record under 25% relative humidity, as it hit 24% today. Crap. Shame I've got to be there tomorrow.
