    So we're left with £590 per week to pay for motoring expenses, eating out, holidays and staff?

    Fúck off. Impossible.

    Obviously you can live reasonably comfortably on £70k (assuming you don't have a mortgage, naturally) but 'rich'? Absolute nonsense.

    Shows how out of touch with ordinary people the left is.
    Switch to roll ups, Chief. You'll save a fortune. Asda do a very presentable own brand lager that could save you a couple of bob.

    With the whole Brexit deal you are going to run out of foreigners to exploit so you may have to cut back on the staff and do a bit of hoovering yourself.

    I switched last year and its fantastic once you find the right tobacco and filters for you.

    I buy mine duty free. I smoke like a chimney but I spent 58 quid on tobacco last November and haven't spent a penny since.

    Best decision I ever made.

    Opinion.

    Economic necessity drove me to rollups 30 years ago and it wasn't long before I preferred them to cigs, which to me now mainly taste of the chemical fuses in them to keep them burning.

    I did my chest in and made my fingers dirty and smelly.
    I am sure I would have got used to them.

    Good filters, the slimmer the better, and the right tobacco resolves this. I got used to them in a couple of days and fags now taste of **** to me.
