    It is often better mate

    Now that you can get memory foam etc cut to size it's easier and far cheaper to build a bed to fit a space than buy a ready made one imo

    Sounds the best option, even if you have to pay someone to make it.

    my crown came off twice and they replaced it twice, which i said i wouldn't pay for twice as they can't be fitting correctly and i had spent over £200.
    it came off for a third time and they gave me a cheap temporary crown, while they went to refit the expensive crown.
    the temporary has worked brilliantly, i have kept this for nearly a year !!

    all dentists are all ****s*

    *my female dentist and her assistant are both smoking hot, which doesn't stop my hating all other dentists

    We're get shafted up the arse over here for pretty much everything.

    We don't complain or protest enough and just put up with it.

    I mean, in fairness to the French, if a company changed the delivery date of croissants then they'd protest.

    I tend to vote by my feat/ don't buy an item/ find another way of getting the item.

    Thing that really pissed me off was when I go to places like Pakistan and find they get all premiership football games for **** all while we pay loads

    I once got a guy from Dolphin round to quote for a bathroom (tiles, floor, toilet, etc.). Nothing lavish and the room no more than 6ft by 6ft. He came up with £20,000 plus. I must have laughed for 5 minutes non-stop before eventually showing him the door. Did the whole thing myself for less than £2,000. My only regret is that i didn't try to charge him £20 for the tea and biscuits.

    Yup.

    Pure bullshit.

    "They're British they can afford it" but that's not always the case.

    I don't pay for Sky or Netflix or anything like that.

    We're even forced to pay a tax to watch TV and fund a company.

    There is loads in this country which is bent.

    The equitable arrangement on broadcast TV would
    be that subscribers should be paying more to
    subsidise the ticket prices for the supporters who
    actually attend the games (and enhance the
    viewing spectacle via "atmosphere" etc) .

    for the life of me cannot see the difference except one has expensive gears and forks and VAT to pay and the other is an essential item of mobility.
