The Cost Of Living Crisis

Anyone felt the pinch yet?

Notice a good proportion of my hotels are quiet this week. But with the jubilee round the corner and pride the week after maybe folk are simply saving their trips for that.

Cant help but feel the media are driving a lot of it. They seem hell bent on us heading into a recession. Making people panic and stop spending.

They should be telling everyone its all gravy.

Only area Ive felt it is diesel. £154 to fill my van the other day. That's taking the piss.

I have no idea why my electricity has gone up so much compared to my gas usage.

Probably dickhead eldest cooking food every 2 hours and fucking off to work leaving his ps5 and TV on.

That or prices are taking the piss.

Hot tubs 

it’s all because of hot tubs

giant fucking kettles being left on up and down the land so tens of thousands of lower middle class spacks can sit in each other’s churning fluids, sweating and pretending they’re having a great time before realising after 5 minutes that it’s complete goose shit, so they take a selfie for Facebook and get out.

But they leave the thing bubbling away, soaking up supplies and shoving the prices up.

You awful, hideous, product-sponge wankers.

I’d have every hot tub owner fined their entire earnings for a year, and made to cycle on exercise bikes for 10 hours a day to generate the electricity they’ve fucking wasted on having a bastard fucking bath outside. Like wankers.

Every man ever to his Mrs when she's moaning that its cold.  

They're just nuts. I came home the other day to the heating blasting out in this weather. When I enquired as to what the fuck was going on I was told that she'd had to wash an outfit she wanted to wear that night and so needed to get it dry quick on the radiator. It was 20 odd degrees, blazing sunshine and she wasn't going out for another 4 hours. 

PUT IT OUT ON THE LINE YOU FECKING LOON.

Oh aye.

Can't do that because of the pollen and her hay-fever.

Yes, get that as well. I've informed her of the WW school of thought on that issue. 😁

Think danger wank

Scam warning: apparently, cunts are contacting people pretending to be ofgem and sorting out the rebate. Ignore them- the supplier does it automatically. 

Petrol 1.86 in Canterbury today, filled my boots (and my tank) before getting back to London.

 

Letter just popped through from my lads school.

Next years school trip is to New York.

£2k + with spends.

Theres no crisis after all.

No golden H after all then.

Iirc, heard something about teachers going for fuck all on these long distance jollies- subsidised by the school or the kids (parents). Perhaps Swanny will know.

Utter bollocks whatever.

Just paid £2.02l for Diesel in Southend earlier this morning - only just about £20 in, and then filled up at Costco closer to home for a bargain £1.91 per litre

They’d say they were working and they do have the responsibility of making sure they come back with the same amount they go out with .

Lads school is currently in Miami .
