Why restrict Big Brother to a house? Why not cordon off say, an abandoned or little used airfield and make it a Big Brother camp? That way, we could see the Big Brother contestants zipping around the place in a Big Brother car! What would it be, a Cadillac, a door mobile, a converted JCB – with contestants in the cab and in the buckets? These are my idle thoughts, as yet again, I am delegated the unenviable task of cleaning my girlfriend’s car, followed by a search for car insurance, on her behalf and for mainly her benefit.

My girlfriend’s car attracts vast amounts of sand, dirt, bits of paper, receipts and coins on a daily basis; mostly caused by me; because I’m either borrowing it, or borrowing a lift in it. So I’m not really complaining having to clean the thing. Actually it feels like a debt repaid, and that Zen like feeling of fulfilment when the job is done makes it so much better for my well being.

Ever since confused.com gave a quote for the Big Brother house for their insurance, I’ve been wondering about going online and getting a quote for the car in the same way. Do these sites really work? I give it a try and it seems easy enough.

I don’t procrastinate when it comes to cleaning things. I clean with a military zeal and with immense precision. It’s not just a car I am cleaning, there’s something meta-physical going on which I’m not inclined much to expend mental energy attempting to explain.

There’s the obvious satisfaction that come from knowing you’ve made someone else pleased with you. Unfortunately when it comes to going online and looking for car insurance, especially with limited information to hand because you’re doing it on behalf of someone else, I’m liable to distraction.

I go straight to a car insurance site then the next minute I’m in the garden trying to straighten the fence. I’m susceptible to these space time jumps when attempting to carry out a seemingly boring task.

Forcefully delivering myself back to the computer, I type in confused dot com and complete an online form with astonishing self-discipline. The best quotes arrive in seconds. I save them, for my girlfriend to inspect later. It’s done.

Why doesn’t Big Brother get a car? The car insurance probably would be way more expensive that the car insurance I just got some quotes for. Though I am sure Big Brother, with all his powers and ability to hand out wads of cash to persons achieving the significant status of being the least disliked out of a group of possibly quite dislikeable people, could afford it.

I’d like to see the next edition of Big Brother set on a wide open space of an airfield, a giant car for them to race around in, and the Big Brother house transported there in its entirety, contents and furnishings and all. Never mind car insurance, I’d like to see confused.com insure that.
