    The previous Govt. passed legislation giving Local Authorities the power to force owners of vacant properties to either do them up and rent/sell them, or the L/A would take control of the property and do the work required to get it back in to use.

    Round my way, the council used to ask people if they saw empty properties to contact them, so they could see if they could be reused.

    Mrs P. isn't very happy. She got told she was being 'let go' at Christmas as her ironing was '!!!!!!' and her boss 'had to do a lot of the stuff again'. I think her boss is a damn good liar. If her ironing was that bad, she would have not waited 4 months to get shot of her.

    I did look on Google to see if her (soon to be ex) boss had a website and adsense so I could wage a 'search and click' war on her and cost her her business. She hasn't.

    What does a click & search do that causes damage?

    Just been to Mr T in March and used plenty vouchers ;) and, as I saw the £1.39 or 2 for £2 on the Cad DairyMilk that was priced 93p but scanning at 34p yesterday, I thought I'd just scan one to see what it went through as, and ............................................






    .................... and it still scanned at 34p so thought I'd better get another 10 bars, just in case :o:o
