    :eek::confused: It's all so unmerciless (is that a real word?) and the profiteering nasties are out in force - just been ripped off by a local garage. Car went for a service, phone call 3 hours later, 'got to change your ball joints as car not road-worthy, that'll be £700 instead of £230' and of course they had to do it. Bla'guards. They also quoted for a new cambelt and stuff £660. Got the car back and tried another (family recommended but not make-specific) garage - £350. I hate them with a passion. :mad:

    Come and live in london - you can get everyhere (inside m25) by public transport: frequent service, good connections. My car is really only a "shopping trolley" and visit-to-mum's machine.

    This is a bit tongue-in-cheek as regular "viewers" know I wish to escape one day! :D But my car bills are low!

    I've got a decent occupational pension but was hoping to top it up with interest on my saving. Looks a forlorn hope now, and jobs are non existent around here.

    Adey, hasn't Alice offered you one yet (a job) ?:D

    Hey look at the ice woman thread I thought she was talking about us. Wait I'll copy and paste.

    While the lads at Icesave et al were making off with their filthy lucre it seems that a team of females interested in ethics were making their own way in the world.
