Depends on where you live H
Never knock an idea just cos its old.
Net curtains can be life savers if you live on a bus route, near open ground or hi rise living. In the summer they keep insects and noisy parkers out.

The Treaty of Maastricht was a disaster for unskilled workers in the UK. A wave of cheap labour from the EU cut wages by 1/2 within a few short years. It was so bad the National Minimum Wage Act was brought in and a raft of “in work” benefits. The idea that more workers would pay more tax to cover the cost was disparaged once the EU worke…[Read more]

Mr Fishy replied to the topic Roz's new car….. in the forum Off topic chat 3 years, 3 months ago
Let me sweeten the deal
120 euros road tax
5 euros per electric recharge or less
So lets say you fully charge it 7 days per week:
35 euros + 2.5 euros for tax… that’s under 40 euros per week to keep
If you can find a cheaper car to keep… let me know

You have a lot to learn about people in the UK. Ladyhm had a disable husband and worked up to the end. Never once did Ladyhm complain.
