It's the 88p bathplug that really does it, isn't it? Well, that and claiming for both the fireplace and the coal to burn in it. Mind you, she did well getting her cooker connected for £15 - that must have been cash in hand...
The red faces over the weekend must have been hot enough to light several fires with and heat the hot water too. Two washing machines, I see. Is poor Jacqui having to take in washing to scrape by.
Nige, who, like Mr Kenneth Horne, prefers to remain anonymous, was also a founder blogger of The Dabbler and a co-blogger on the Bryan Appleyard Thought Experiments blog. He is the sole blogger on this one, and his principal aim is to share various of life's pleasures. These tend to relate to books, art, poems, butterflies, birds, churches, music, walking, weather, drink, etc, with occasional references to the passing scene. His book, The Mother of Beauty: On the Golden Age of English Church Monuments, and Other Matters of Life and Death, is available on Amazon or direct from the author.
