    I bought my wife a little make up mirror yesterday because I told her a few days ago she should get rid of the current one. Looked a bit old.
    She was really happy when she got the gift. Only cost £20.
    i have to ask, is that because it was cracked?

      You usually find the attitude of her friends is a result of being embarrassed to be from that class a one or two generations ago.
      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        How the hell would you struggle on a 250k income? I think people get "need" and "want" confused nowadays. 4 years on that kind of income and I'd consider myself sorted for life.

          Hmmm. If you have kids that go to private school, which to be honest I would want to do myself, that's it right there.
          Bang goes your < £125,000 after tax.

            Private school is for *******!

            If you can't send your kid to a state school then time to move country.

              Apart from a few good catchment areas, time to move country then.

                if you earn 250K pa then your going to have a bloody nice house.
                Nice houses are usual in nice areas.
                Nice areas will have good state schools.
                Easy.

                  Many private schools perform worse than the top State schools. If you £ value the added value of saying you knew one of Tara Parker Tompkinson's drug addled relatives then I guess it's worth the financial hardship.
