Just had a letter telling me I have to have a smart water meter :roll: .

There is NO option to opt out it's compulsory :sad:

Aparently from now on my water will be metered on an hourly basis because in our area there is considerable "stress"

In other words they don't want to spend money upgrading the supply to cope with all the extra houses built in the last 30 years with another 4000 to come.

Picking folks up at the airport, and while the parking charge clock is ticking, they want to do a week's shopping in M&S.

I used to offer to stop somewhere on the way back but that only worked 1 in 3 times as usually they were hungry or thirsty :roll:

Toothache.

We have got to be the worst trade to suffer it.

another 4000 acres of prime farmland in lincolnshire going for one of Millibands solar projects

Why do we have to put them on fields instead of buildings one day food imports will be difficult to obtain and we'll regret losing the 10's of thousands of Lincolnshire fields getting taken out of production
