    "This is because Saga had sold them a standard home insurance policy rather than specialist landlord cover, and it did not offer protection against damage by tenants. "

    No, our feral children impregnated the neighbours and torched their Astras, we dirty protested the bedrooms, other than the skunk farm, we trashed the place, the roof is gone, the boiler exploded and we skipped owing 6 months rent.

    Suck it up you parasites.

    Boomers laughing their tits off

    People aged 65 to 79 'happiest of all', study suggests - BBC News

    65 to 79 is the happiest age group for adults, according to Office for National Statistics research.

    The survey of more than 300,000 adults across the UK found life satisfaction, happiness and feeling life was worthwhile all peaked in that age bracket, but declined in the over-80s.

    Those aged 45 to 59 reported the lowest levels of life satisfaction, with men on average less satisfied than women.
