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.

Fuck that.

Exactly the same, it's a lovely toasty 22C in here at the minute, and it's staying that way

Also when leaving the bathroom light on, it's to keep the extractor fan on she says 

Me: it stays on after you turn the light off

Her: does it? Never knew that 

Me: because you never turn it fucking off

You could adjust the timer.

She never turns it off though so whether it over-runs for 5 or 35 minutes makes no difference.

Take the cover off and there should be a dial you can turn down with a small flathead screwdriver. Can be reduced to zero so it never comes on.

Again he misses the point to be contrary, a point he completely understands

Didn't miss the point at all, mardarse. You can disable the extractor fan with a little DIY know-how. Did you get out of the wrong side of the bed this morning?

Maybe get a child to read it back to you so you understand

Or just re read mickey D's post 

Fucking hell

Dunno - helped me. I'm certainly going to try that trick.

Correct.

21 here, because I'm a bit tougher than you Southern ponces, but the point is the same. I'm not wrking in the cold and what it costs is compensated by what I'm not spending on petrol or getting dressed.

I'll take that as a yes then 🙂

A team is round the corner fixing it apparently. 

It's weird, because the dogs have immediately gone all quiet and dozy.

The lights going off usually signal bedtime so they've switched into bedtime mode.
