strange and unusual taxes

[MATTMOSS]

I get hit with hefty tax quite often.

It happens when i buy tools, go out drinking with my mates, get seen with any cash she wasnt aware of, im in a good mood or she anticipates me being paid.

Its very annoying.

Anyone been hit with this tax yet?

 

Was down in London a few weeks ago and you really have to have your wits about you not to get clobbered with this one! 😡

The typical penalty for driving in a bus lane is £130 in London and £70 outside the capital. Drivers who pay promptly can have their fine reduced by half.

 

It's 20 pounds here in Berlin

Don't go to London unless you really have to. It's a very expensive **** hole.

I took our kids to London for 2 days last week, we went on an open top bus tour, and they told us that apparently, in the houses of parliament there are 3 bars, all beer is tax free and costs about £1.30 a pint!!!

That explains a great deal about a lot of things!

Perhaps this post should be in the conspiracy theory thread. 😀

The prices sound tempting Simon, but if I want to drink with a load of argumentative bullshitters I just head up the local with my mates.
