  1. :congrats: The top 1% wealthiest people in this country pay near one third of all tax!!! I remember on top gear they were talking about speed cameras being a stealth tax, they revealed that the previous year Simon Cowell had paid more in income tax than had be generated by all the speed cameras in the country!! IMO, the idea that the rich don't pay the share is utter nonsense. Unfortunately many of our country men are very sad jealous people, who try to cover up their own failings and weakness by finding fault with those more successful than themselves. In many countries when a nice car pulls onto a car park, the onlookers congratulate the owner and admire the car, over here they often come out with put downs such "bet he's a drug dealer or a thief", its very sad:thumbdown:
  2. I hope you gave them a few beer tokens, that way you will be at the front of their mind next time their near you .
  3. How great would it be if we changed the rules so we keep the good and get shut of the bad!!!
  4. What utter claptrap!!!!! IMO If people wanted to pay more for goods they would buy stuff made in the UK, these other countries produce things at the prices they do in order to undercut our own manufactures.
  5. I have done this, its excellent, last year the pool water was generally above 35C, bit warm for swimming, but great for relaxing in:thumbup1:
  6. :thumbup:
  7. And yet you felt the need to contribute
  8. True, but they never pay up front and are not shy at rejecting a load.
  9. Had on lad not turn up at the pickup point, no call, no text, rang him no reply. Following morning he rang saying he was at the pickup point, why had no one collected him?? Needless to say he was not collected and never worked for me again.
  10. Put down the shovel and step away from the hole…...
  11. I'm amazed that leylandii timber has survived since 1987:001_huh: I would have expected it to have turned to mush. As above, burns lovely once dry.
  12. The middle class still work, even most of the upper class work. Its about the kind of work they do. In many ways those on benefits are the new working class, yet they don't work. Also we used to have the idle rich, but maybe now its the idle poor
  13. I wish!!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. Thing is Stevie your a boss who can do every thing his staff can do and plenty more besides. If your working for a gardener who has tagged tree work onto his business and know bugger all about it, he may not know who's good and who's not.
  15. The truth!! some people can't handle the truth!!!
  16. I would not find someone I have trusted and entered into a working relationship with treating that way at all funny.
  17. Pretty conclusive.
  18. Ah!! but who had spent all the money in the good times, meaning we had no reserves for troubled times???
  19. I would consider anyone refusing to leave my premises until their demands were met was treating me with the utmost contempt.
  20. I like your thinking
  21. With their interest rates we would be finished!!!!!!!
  22. Yes it is, so you would be committing an offence if you disturb the nest. Although there is nothing to stop you from shooting the Magpies, then the nest would not be in use and no offence would be committed.
  23. Stainless bolts will likely not be as strong as the originals.
