Could you live on £7.50 a day?

Plan B

I am going to install loads of Crank handles outside dole offices and job centres that can be turned by unemployed people. They will be attached to generators and I will then sell the power to National grid. Add in subsidies for "green power" and kerching

Hey, you can't just leech off other people's hard work - you're a recruitment agent .... oh

£50 a week is too much.

Two bowls of porridge a day: less than a pound a day.
Electricity: our grandparents didn't need it
Accommodation; you can sleep under the bridge, it's free.
Fags and booze: they're bad for you

Any extra money: you can steal.

See, problem solved. What are they moaning about?

Booze especially special brew or hospital hand sanitizer helps you forget you are living under a bridge and you also gets rid of hunger.

I (honestly) don't know why home distillation has not taken off in this country.

Been watching that moonshiners on discovery quite a bit and it seems to be fairly easy to do.

The Ruskies seem to be quite keen on knocking up some bottles of 'tramp killer' in their spare time although it does kill about 15,000 of them each year.

You can get little machines that will do it. They are not illegal to own but are illegal to use. They also might be a bit expensive to run if you are on a pre-pay electric meter.

I'll stick it next to my grass plants.

(that's a joke)

But seriously, it can't be that hard and chance of getting caught is minimal, a run could keep a whole jakeball family in drink for a month.

I have a friend who makes homebrew and sells it to friends, some of it is quite nice. Is that illegal?
