Did not see much regeneration in Rhyl when went the other year.... plenty of degeneration though.

I did a quick Google, all I could find was that Mansfield District Council had to hand back £150,000 to the EU.

In all the years that we were in the EU I never saw a sign saying that this project was funded by the EU around here. All the bogs around here where closed year's ago, some of them definitely needed closing though.

We use to do something similar down the pit....guys would put a pie, or a tin of soup on the transformers, one guy bought fish and chips and put them on there too, the fish & chips ended up a little dry, but still edible.

My present insurance is with Aviva, looks like I am going back to Bennetts, I was with them the year before last, till the put my renewal up to £110 .....so I went to Aviva, who as you can see did the same trick, Bennetts TPO will do.

Looked at TPO insurance prices, i don't expect (hope) the scoot to spontaneously burst into flames, and I don't think any self respecting tea leaf would want to pinch it ....TPO=£60

Cos TPFT was only around £5 cheaper

FC....only me on the policy... I have looked on GoCompare..very similar prices..

I think it's because I do bugger all day except sit on my arse.

£65 ......,so a 100% rise

I was awake at (roughly) 3am, 4.30am, 5.45 am, 6.30am, went to the lav, 7.15am, 8.30am, then felt like crap when I eventually got out of bed at 9.15am, oh for full undisturbed night.

Wife got a letter today from HMRC, a new tax code and its a K code, trying to decipher the letter, it says she owes £150 tax from last year. How the fuck does someone on a lower pension, and a £5 pension per year from Woolies owe tax? She did try to ring them, waiting time........55 minutes.

Is it yours today @boboneleg ?

Just for reference.

Sitting on my arse (as usual ) and watching WSBK, occasionally I will stand up and look out the window, accompanied by a couple of expletives, I havd not bothered to look at the weather forecast, its usually shite anyway.

The month or so leading up to Christmas the wheely bin is put back exactly where they collected it from, the week after New Year, its is left on the edge of the pavement about 3 metres away.

Happy birthday Fred...........and Mrs. Saul.

Looks like @boboneleg is bored... At the moment not a spot of mould anywhere, but watch this space , because

Mines! ......a good thing that they are all gone now, it is the one job I would never have returned to.

The bathroom extractor fan is on the wall, about 1metre away from the bath/shower, there is only the light switch and a on/off master switch for that, unless it is adjustable inside the body of the fan I cannot see how to adjust it. The guy did go up in the loft to check if all was OK, but the year before last we had a new boiler installed, the fitters went in the loft space to fit the roof vent, and at that time they/he did not put the insulation back, this was only discovered when the guys came to check before putting in the new kitchen ceiling, it was then put back. We wanted a cooker hood fitting in the kitchen too, but the housing association would only give it the go ahead if their guys fitted one, but the price they quoted was too much for us, I still think one would be a good idea because my wife does cook proper meals on it, no microwave meals here.

@Nute....some the things you mentioned we have, like trickle vents, we do have a tumble dryer in the kitchen, i fitted a new pipe to the outside vent, but we only use it when necessary, it is a old one, so i guess it gobbles electric, so it is used sparingly. Kitchen and bathroom have recently (last year) been fitted with new extractor fans, and both are wired to the light switch, there is a override off switch, but it is left in the on position. I do open the bedroom windows when we get up, unless the wind is blowing, it makes the doors rattle otherwise , but saying that, the bedroom is the least (mould) effected room in the bungalow, not much moist action in there now days Our spare room fitted with patio doors has mould around the patio doors, and also around the wall vent, but keep treating it with bleach, maybe not the ideal thing to use, but it works in the short term. Bathroom is the 2nd worst effected room, they did put in a new ceiling last year, but where the tiles finish and the ceiling starts is proving to be a mould hotshot, the walls around the window have significant mould patches, well they did, till the guy treated them the other day, as said, the extractor fan comes on with the light switch, and draws on for around 5 mins after the lights are turned off. Kitchen, has a extractor fan, that operates in the same manner as the bathroom extractor, this too has had a new ceiling fitted last year, but that too has mould where the walls meet the ceiling, I expect it to be the worse effected room as cooking causes much condensation, but again the guys have treated the effected areas, how long will it keep the mould at bay?..anybodies guess. I suppose in the scheme of things it comes down to lack of constant heating, 2 hours of daily heating may be doing more harm than good. Thanks for the info, may be able to act on some of it.
