So i finally sold my car

I have had my Renault Clio for eight years and it has served me well. It was a 2003 model 1.2 engine and it ran. The handling was really good and i like the speed it could go.

I waved bye bye to her last weekend. Well hopefully that will keep my costs down two cars for a single guy living on my own. Probably sensible to let her go in the end.

Selling my car

I have recently put my Renault Clio up for sale and i feel it’s in pretty good condition. I am not sure why everyone is so picky these days with a little dent on the back or a scratch you can hardly see. My first car i had for driving was a banger! It was only worth £100. I am selling my 10 year old Clio for £1500 which is below the value of the car and i think its a reasonable price to ask for. But people have to negotiate and offering me only £900. That’s below the low end as webuyanycar.com offer low end prices and they r offering more than that!

Another silly thing people do is phone me up from a blocked number leave a message saying they are interested in the car and only giving their name! How am suppose to phone these silly people back if they don’t give a number! All in all with the way things are going i might just end up selling too webuyanycar!

10 pence for a shopping bag in my local WH Smiths

I only brought one magazine but the woman in the store had a fair cheek to try and charge me 10 pence for a shopping bag. I found it disgusting and suprised to find the group is actually making a profit.

If they are making a profit as a group, maybe my local store is making a loss! Who knows, only their books would tell me that. But I sent an email to the customer services hoping for a responce.

As the snow drifts down…

I am left wondering when will winter stop! I thought I saw a glimps of spring last week with the dafs and the tulips rising up through the ground. Yet my hopes of the winter gone, have been dashed.

My heating is yet still on, I need to keep warm and the price of the bill has gone up!

Yet I always beleive that a harder winter leaves from a stronger summer, although later, I am sure December 2013 is going to be a warm one. I bet people will be wearing t-shirts and shorts.

As for me, I guess it’s time to curl up with my book or play out some time on the playstation, because when it’s snowing, I really don’t wish to go anywhere.

How rude are your neighbours?

There is a young married couple above me and at times they play really loud music. I’ve gone round the side, rung the bell and got no reply. I know they are up there, I just get ignored. How on earth can these people have such loud music. Drives me nuts at times and it feels like I can’t do anything about it.  How can you relax with 20 decibels bouncing down onto you?

Is the UK running a tax except workforce?

I know London is cosmopolitan but when I am in a restaurant getting my order in it helps if I can understand the waitress. With such a thick European accent then other waiters talking in a language you don’t understand, you have to wonder if part of the damage to our economy is not giving jobs to British citizens and allowing Europe to work for us. Thus the money paid in wages is going into European pockets and back across the channel into Europe. I can only assume the British government is getting less tax due.
