I give up ;D


Glad you're pleased, even if you did pay way over the odds :y
. 

You give up , imagine how I feel having people worry about my financial position..😂😂😂 it's only £25  for oppss sake.

Well us young-uns on here do worry about the OAP's.  :y                                                                  ;D

I really can't believe all the nonsense over a few quid 😂
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

Afraid I'm the same, can't be arsed doing stuff if I can pay someone to do it. And £25 is neither here nor there.
Jaime, I reckon £25 is less than you'd spend on a curry for one  ;D

Rumour has it that TB keeps a packet of wet wipes in the fridge for the morning after a lamb naga!  :o  ;D

Specifically to Rangie (and STEMO), I guess it was the way I was brought up, Dad always drummed into us, look after the pennies, the pounds will then look after themselves....

...and remember in my late teens I had a financially hard, although rewarding, life, when I was earning under £35 a week and the emergency accommodation I'd managed to secure costing £30 a week.

So that's why is something is simple and within my capabilities, I'll keep that £15 :)


And unlike the previous generation in particular, no gold plated pension for me...

For me it's simply a guy trying to make a living , he asked for a picture of the key fob and asked what was wrong with it ? All working but split & shabby looking quoted me a price including postage ( tracked) which I considered very reasonable ,he's running a business trying to earn a living simple as that. I've also been skint but soon learned how to get out of that position simply advice & common sense.

We've all been skint. In my case, desperately skint. But it's all relevant, you have to keep up with what things cost, or you end up like grandad having a sharp intake of breath every farts end. I do the shopping in our house, and when 24 rolls of Asda own brand bog rolls come in at over ten quid, you soon realise that £25 buys less than fûck all.

Yep....there are things and jobs I could afford to pay for yet I prefer to do it myself.... (f*uck it up for myself) :)

Something like a shagged toaster/cooker/washing machine/ lawn mower/shower  etc..etc I will always take it apart and can usually get it working again.

Whatever I save I spend wisely on alcohol. :)

A 70 year old scouse fart could wipe out half the population. ::)
