    council tax frozen but water charges up by £1 a month. think i might pay over 10 months instead of 12 this year.

    ScottishWater are cheeky gits, they dont do !!!!!! all and get new customers with every new house, not to mention connection charges (i used to work for infrastructure provider).

    Not being funny but the board looks really depressing. Now that the diaries have gone up above all I can see is the threads thats say people can't cope - they are depressed, going through hell......I almost wept this morning....
    ...

    I am sorry but I feel really strongly now that moving the diaries was a stupid move!

    couldnt agree more!!!

    Hi Doomcow, I'm on a water meter, so at least I'm not waiting for their increase to arrive as well.
    Just need to start showering at my mother's house and I can save loads on water.

    Just realised, she's booked a holiday in about 8 weeks.....I can start my water saving then :D

    Skinty....do you have any rough ideas?

    I tend to google a style (short and spiky hairstyle in my case) and then click on images. I have also printed out piccies and taken them with me.
