    Mr Fishy replied to the topic End of net curtains? in the forum Off topic chat 3 years, 10 months ago

    Depends on where you live H  :scratch:

    Never knock an idea just cos its old.  B-)

    Net curtains can be life savers if you live on a bus route, near open ground or hi rise living.   In the summer they keep insects and noisy parkers out.

    Mr Fishy started the topic  Freedom of movement ending slowly increasing wages in the UK in the forum Getting serious 3 years, 10 months ago

    The Treaty of Maastricht was a disaster for unskilled workers in the UK.  A wave of cheap labour from the EU cut wages by 1/2 within a few short years.   It was so bad the National Minimum Wage Act was brought in and a raft of “in work” benefits. The idea that more workers would pay more tax to cover the cost was disparaged once the EU worke…[Read more]

    But on a more serious note: running costs are everything with cars.  Most people do less than 50 miles a week and sit alone in there over priced tinned boxes with wheels.

    Mr Fishy replied to the topic Roz's new car….. in the forum Off topic chat 3 years, 10 months ago

    Let me sweeten the deal  ;-)

    120 euros road tax

    5 euros per electric recharge or less

    So lets say you fully charge it 7 days per week:

    35 euros + 2.5 euros for tax… that’s under 40 euros per week to keep  :good:

    If you can find a cheaper car to keep… let me know  B-)

    You have a lot to learn about people in the UK.  Ladyhm had a disable husband and worked up to the end. Never once did Ladyhm complain.

    Instead we have linda crying poor Ladyhm.
