A PACKET of 20 cigarettes cost 18p. A POUND of butter was 18p, a loaf was 4p, a pint of milk 3p and six eggs just 8p.

FenwayFrank 2,460 Posted January 3, 2019 Quite why you’re using a post by Daly to have a pop at me is weird, you’re the one that desperately searched Facebook for my profile you loony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Van wink 2,994 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) No support from me for this one. A preferable system would be for fat chaps to pay a 25% increase for trouser overspill on to the adjoining seat. Plus a climate change surcharge.😉 Edited January 3, 2019 by Van wink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van wink 2,994 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Sorry River End, not aimed at you specifically buddy, but I do have a genuine concern about the disproportionate contribution that fat boys are making to global warming, both in terms of input and output.

Daz Sparks 1,159 Posted January 3, 2019 It's a no from me, an above inflation increase maybe, but 25% is excessive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,554 Posted January 3, 2019 When we had this thread last year it was full of people vowing they wouldn't be renewing. Are they missed? I know I ended up with a better seat 🙃 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grando 263 Posted January 3, 2019 I think they’d be well advised to not raise them by more than c. 3% at most (£15) with a good discount as usual for early renewal. That way they’ll get many people to renew on back of our strong current position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
