can i get travel insurance from any travel agent on the high street? average cost?

how big can my hand luggage be, i want to put my 10inch laptop in there and mayby a magazine and sweets,

is there anything else i need to know
I got all my vaccinations for free at my local doctors - booked a travel appointment six weeks ago - job done.

No visa needed.

Got my travel insurance with HSBC online - cost me about £30.

Laptop is usually free carry on - outside of hand luggage - but why would you take one? I'm not letting anything distract me when it comes to my mahal.

(sorry of any of this has been repeated - just read the first post and replied)
