::): I find the whole thing a crock of pish. Tomorrow I'll still have a high mortgage, high council tax, a factors service (we don't have a choice of getting rid of) that pays off the local Government and a Council that won't come and pick up my old demolished shed for less than £15 per 15 minutes....
