I've just reduced our weekly food bill by 50% - I'm not feeding the old man any more - he's a fat bugger anyway so he'll survive for a month or 2 on reserves........

 


A stairway to Heaven and a Highway to Hell give some indication of expected traffic numbers

My wife expressed similar sentiments today Becky, did you all have a meeting?

My HobNobs and Maryland cookies have been replaced by bananas. Have you ever tried to dunk a banana in tea? 'Tis lunacy I tells ya.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

I'm sure he'll appreciate the health benefits of fasting. You're doing is for his own good!

Spend all your working day having a browser tab open specifically to complete online surveys. Should make at least £50 a month if consciousness.

Martin Lewis is your go-to here.

Started a new job last Monday, upped my wages by a good few hundred quid a month so am actually using more gas and electric because I can, not because I need to.

It's 32 deg in my lounge and bright enough to be seen from space.

I'm not an eco warrior but that's just stupid. Unless you're just being sarcastic.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

I've started shopping at Lidl instead of Waitrose.

Win, win. Because I have to drive past Lidl to get to Waitrose.
