2 reasons....boredom and nothing to do. You need a purpose over there or you go stir crazy. We'd done more or less what we'd planned.Can I ask why did you come back?
We also discovered my mum was suffering with dementia as we were looking to move to France, so came back here.

Shit isn't it, I've got Cheshire East asking for a 10% council tax increase to bail them out of their incompetence. We're all being taken for a ride.

Yeah that’s my concern re boredom but I’m thinking I’ll get a gardening round or work at an estate agents (have a contact there) or work behind a bar but less keen on that. You still need purpose to get up in the morning.2 reasons....boredom and nothing to do. You need a purpose over there or you go stir crazy. We'd done more or less what we'd planned.

Sorry to hear of your Mum’s diagnosis.

I would prefer council tax to be taken over 12 months than the 10 they currently do it over. Not sure why they do it that way.Shit isn't it, I've got Cheshire East asking for a 10% council tax increase to bail them out of their incompetence. We're all being taken for a ride.

Probably feel guilty about 200 quid to empty a few bins so let you off for a couple of months.I would prefer council tax to be taken over 12 months than the 10 they currently do it over. Not sure why they do it that way.
Just phone them up and ask them to change to 12 monthsI would prefer council tax to be taken over 12 months than the 10 they currently do it over. Not sure why they do it that way.
