Anyone from the UK?

[thefishfryer]

I know, and if you deduct the tax from your shopping bill it's a scandalous amount. When I used to work I used to deduct tax from my wages, then from my purchases and subtract that whole figure from my salary. it made me so annoyed.

Don't forget council tax, insurance premium tax, duty on alcohol and soft drinks. If that's not enough there's stamp duty and inheritance tax.

I know the feeling and it's no where near wine o'clock yet.

Shh! It’s a secret!

 

[Bettytheboo]

I'm not in the UK, I'm in Yorkshire.

 

[Desihunter96]

Closest I got to Yorkshire was South near Sheffield. Good old university days

 

[Bettytheboo]

I'm in Sheffield, South of the city centre.

Oh, the posh bit. You've got parks and fancy houses

 

[Bettytheboo]

Yes I suppose you could call it the posh end, but it's all subjective when compared to other posh areas.
I bought into the area when there was mining and a steel industry before what happened, happened.

 

[Desihunter96]

The houses are nicer up north and cheaper!

Does it have sqilly breks? Used t think Sheffield busses sounded like whales

i am not sure i have actually seen a 95, but i am aware they exist.

one of the local buses has a high pitched noise inside. think it's designed to stop people staying on too long. It also displays a different route inside, yet announces the correct stops. it is very odd. it does not sound like a whale.
