My Council Tax Has Gone Up & I Don't Care!

My Council Tax Has Gone Up & I Don't Care!
Council tax went up by 3-4% in the latest bill but I don't really care because
They have resurfaced the entire 2 miles from the A14 to virtually my drive with 4 inches of super super smooth tarmac
They have spent more in re-surfacing that road than I will ever ever ever pay in council tax! There's only 3 houses at the end of my road.
Prior to this it was an extremely muddy, broken up and pot-holed single (just about!) track road.
I've already boosted my bottle-corner speed by 3mph Wish I still had PTMW! as I'd wind up the suspension and bust 50mph through it no problem
Thanks St Edmundsbury Borough Council

We just bought a 4x4 to deal with the pot holes round our way. Just need to get bull bars fitted to deal with the damn climbers congregating round them all on a Saturday afternoon

Still - at least it kept 30 men in yellow jackets off the dole queue

I just noticed another one of your previous posts.
Well, i'm level with no 4 at £75k ish. I might be weird, but I get paid "considerably more than yow" as the old sketch goes.
So, i'll carry on being weird and well paid, and you carry on being illiterate, crap paid and **** off back to the muppet forum where you seem to spend most of your time
Bus driver rank 227 with 19k a year. Wheres that then? Im on 14-15k

As for trying to assert yourself as being better than someone because you (allegedly) earn more than them... thats got to be one of the most tragic things Ive ever seen on here and thats saying something.

He also has considerably more money than everyone that doesn't have craploads of money, but that is not where he is coming from. Brumdaisy - DTS has had the ups in life which he has worked his bollix of to achieve. He has also had more downs in life than I would ever care to deal with. It is very rare that I feel the urge to justify someone elses post, but in this case, knowing a little bit of history and both posing styles, I think you should maybe do a little research before you start slating people
