A sad story .

But not worse than the miserable future my children and others have ahead of them.

Saddled with massive debts for getting a degree
Priced out of the housing market ,when they do get a job.
Work till they drop to support the ever growing and constantly moaning older generation , there will be no state pension ,  free travel , prescriptions , winter fuel allowance etc for their generation.

I've advised mine to move to Australia or NZ when they finish Uni.

Most of Europe is beyond repair.

I get her feelings.

I work outdoors(ish) and meet customers(people, im not a salesman btw) all the time. Just work on the electricity network.

In my line of work i meet every type of customer/person.

Last night i met an elderly lady, she was ever so polite and classy, she had no electric, told me about the explosion behind her house, very helpful. 10 mins later she bought out her sony radio with instructions, the radio was at least 40 years old, i asked radio 2 or 4 ? 4 was her answer.

Anyway onto the radio and her instructions, she still had the instructions on a radio that was older than me(43). we switched onto the battery supply and nothing, she had dead batts. Luckily her electric came back on, but half of the village was still off.

An hour later this lady still came out and offered me and my workmates tea/coffee.


She is 80
