Small update.
Put the claim into KLM online this afternoon. I started to list what was in my case and look up online for the orders I’d made for most of it with Marks & Spencers, Asda George, Amazon etc. At the end whan I added it all up it came to well over £500!!!
I was about to send it when my ex asked if I’d put the case on the list?, I hadn’t even thought of that!, having gone over it again there were a few more things I’d also forgotten, it ended up at £680 :0
So, having submitted the claim I realised I hadn’t mentioned the amount of problems it had caused us with the holiday, like not being able to take advantage of the free premium dining package we’d been given as we couldn’t meet the restaurant dress code, use the swiming pool, spa etc. as no bathing suits/trunks or even shorts and other stuff. I went back and added a note to it.
I started organising my case for next weeks Xmas Markets cruise and kept going, nope!, haven’t got this or that!, had to go internet shopping to try and replace the missing stuff. With Xmas fast approaching quite a few things were either out of stock or showing long delivery times. Being 6′ 5 1/2″ (1.97m) tall I can’t just pop into town and pick up clothes that fit me, finding size 13 wide fitting shoes is even more trouble!.
I did manage to order some boxers from Asda George and a couple of pairs of trousers from M&S which were on sale, had to order smaller sizes as I lost just over a stone (7.3Kg) during the trip. So far in the last year I’ve lost over 4 stones (about 28Kg), I’m down to just under 16 stone (100Kg) which is the lowest I’ve been for probably 40+ years.
Please excuse spelling/typos. Apart from being a clot it turns out I had one on my cerebellum that's now causing various problems!
