    I'm not sure we pay over the odds for everything, either. Housing is mental, certainly.
    This is a good point Ash. But I decided to look into it a bit further.
    They have spent 36 million on snow equipment and this is quite interesting. cancelling seems part of the plan which I find odd.







    but we do pay over the odds on transport, housing and fuel and tobacco imo.
    And don't get me started on council tax.

    Other smaller gripes I always have problems with deliveries. (I blame the uk for this since I am at it)
    and the electric here is too powerful. I bought a nice new electric toothbrush with a stand. But unfortunately it can not be charged in my bathroom as I do not have the luxury of a shaver socket.
