my dad lives abroad and the tenant in his house complained of a broken light switch, he called out an electrician and they charged him £300 to replace the switch, now that is a rip off in my opinion but unfortunately essential when you have tenants and need someone qualified!Wins so far:
£100 M&S Voucher, £10 Mama's & Papa's Voucher, £50 Mother Care Voucher, £50 Very Voucher, £65 dining out Voucher, 3 months of Purina Cat food, cinema tickets, silk scarf, Frusli bars,
