Previous travel insurance has expired. My notes from last time are here
Need to get a new quote.
Last time QBE via TUH was the best deal. So in the interests of timeliness we will start off with them. Also last time, the price AND the conditions changed depending on the point of entry. So we need to enter via TUH. This turns out to be a bit obscure because no direct link on the TUH page. A quick phone call to TUH established that we need to search "Travel insurance".

Liverpool fc tickets not so easy
Dan would like to go and see a football match at Liverpool in the UK.
Turns out buying a ticket is dam hard.
We would like to go the game
Sat 30th Dec 2017 15:00 Leicester City.
Turns out you can't just buy tickets. They just don't sell them as far as I can see.
You have to be a member to buy tickets.

advises
"Members Sale - These take place in both July and November"
So we are in November but it would appear that is not actually enough.
The sale is due to start tomorrow 14th-NOV-2018 BUT one has to have been a member by 9-NOV-2017 So we have missed that option.

Note MAY need to have seen some previous games. But don't actually know.
Prices would be
http://www.liverpoolfc.com/membership/adult
Lite membership = GBP26.99 = $AUD46.20
Then a ticket = GBP9-59 = $AUD15.41 to AUD101 depends on the stand.
So Could be $AUD150 and no guarantee.

HOSPITALITY
Hospitality means pay an inordinate amount to eat at a on site restaurant or stay in a hotel that you really do not want to stay at and get a ticket thrown in.
There are a number of restaurants. The cheapest seems to be called the Calsberg Dug Out and that is
GBP191 (+VAT) - $AUD328
Wow! And it's not even in the stadium
Most if not all of the on site venues are sold out.

DODGY? RE-SELLERS
I do not understand how this works. I think they are reselling other peoples season passes so you get a pass with someone elses name on it.

Brigidine Rowing - passing on the oars
Brigidine rowing celebrated Tallulah being appointed as the 2018 Rowing Captain.
The cerimonial handover was performed by stand in Captain Annie who in the perpetual absence of the rowing Captain has selflessly undertaken all sorts of leadership responsibilities.
