So - my water bill just dropped onto the Matt….

£717.00. They really, quite literally - are taking the piss!

Here’s what I don’t get: 1) This rise is above inflation by some margin…. (It’s £100 quid above last years bill - which I thought was extortionate then)

2) Everywhere I see them out and about, fixing leaks and replacing pipes. The amount of their product being wasted is surely going DOWN, and one would HOPE fairly substantially with the amount of works going on, meaning that there should be more available. I assume (dangerous, I know), that they are prioritising works so that the largest leaks are being fixed first [logical]. Seeing as we drink recycled water anyway (the old adage being that London water has been drunk 7 times), how TF are they able to justify this level of increase?

We are all just cows, being milked for _every last penny ….

Looks like I will be joining the metered brigade fairly shortly…. Providing I don’t freeze to death first…..

    Water load of nonsense.

    OLB’s in the house!

    Once again Ed is out of his depth in the bantz.

      My advice to everyone under 30, GTFO…. ASAP!

      Britain is sinking…. (Must be where all that water is going. We are taking on so much of it, there is FA left for anything else)!….

      Breaks my heart to say that, USED to be so proud to be British! But seriously, this country is SCREWED in the long term…

            Ask for the boon of Statehood and the Land of Liberty shall grant your request. You’ll do marvelously.

                Sounds like a good thing???

                Going by what I have seen in terms of posts on the board about him???

                Don’t know the bloke personally and never seen any of his posts…. Someone who got kicked off the board??

                  You will have to start selling your arse just to pay that bill… like a TRENT boy

                    Bdoom Tish!

                    Thankfully, I won’t, but I am sure that if this continues, there are MANY that WILL!

                    Seriously thinking about GTFO of London tho’…. (Can’t see the point in staying).

                              Loved the North when I was there back in 04! (What I saw of it, which wasn’t actually THAT much), but it was a special time (just after the peace process), and it helped that it snowed whilst I was there!

                              In fact, it might be time for another visit! Love to see Dublin & the South!…

                              (Attractive tax regime too, IF I was to consider it)?

                              Like the Irish as a people to, they KNOW the craic! 😄
