    Go on, tell us what you think El Gordo will do to tax on petrol now there are all these congestion zones. Or stamp duty what with house prices being what they are.

    Quick, before the effect of the tablets wears off again.
    can I have some of these tablets please?

        When you change supplier, the utilities often lose the plot as to who is providing the supply. This causes aggravation for the letting agents / landlords who sometimes have to sort it out when a tenant leaves.

        So now it is normal practice to have in lettings contracts that you are not allowed to change utility supplier.

        Which, of course, given a couple of years, results in the tenant paying way over the odds for gas & leccy.

          this morning I trod on a sewing needle in the kitchen. how an earth did that get there?

          I only had socks on - needle went about 1cm in.

            When they find out, just say, take me to court, I have already checked my rights with a solicitor.
            They will probably back down.
            They would just serve notice for breach of contract.

                So why not have a clause saying you have to tell them?

                I am with Diver - just change it.

                  will they actually find out?

                    I knelt on one once, it was stuck in the carpet.
                    being me, it snapped off in the bone just below my right knee and I had to go to hospital to have the damned thing removed.

                      The goldfish have short memories

                      They would forget that they had been eaten within seconds
                      When I was ickle, one of my Big Bruvvas was put in charge of providing my tea 'cos Mum & Dad were Going Out.

                      My Big Bruvva had a Saturday job in a fish shop.

                      So I had fish on toast.

                      It tasted muddy and was full of tiny, soft bones. It was very unpleasant to eat.

                      When I went to feed my goldfish in the garden pond - they had gone.







                      The bastard.

                      That was 35 years ago.

                      I have a long memory.

                      I still intend to piss in his grave.
