British Gas have been weeks now digging up my road now laying new pipes, well they've started to connect all the houses and yesterday was my turn. Unfortunately they couldn't find the pipe and i was left with no gas all night. They're outside at the moment digging up the garden so hopefully i'll be able to eat tonight.
I've been told and just phoned to check it, i'm entitled to £30, hope this is of interest to anyone else having work done.
Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    My gas is connected back up now but blanked off and awaiting the engineer to flick the switch.

    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..
