They were $3000 for as long as I can remember. Shows how much we are relying on overseas import......as a continent we just have to stop buying from China full stop, It’s total f***ing madness imho Agreed but a lot of businesses with no connection with Asia are jumping on the gravy train. The boom before the burst maybe.. Cant keep going as it is. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plans just got passed to build 90 houses across the road from me in one the orchards.Depite the fact the village school cant take all the kids already living in the village and the lanes are already dangerous round here.Thats without the 3000 going up 4miles away on farmland on the outskirts of our nearest town.And not a single change to the local infrastructure.Oh sorry a new Aldi's and a roundabout. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was saying in another thread before about Sandwhich in Kent, they built a load of houses there. That village has (in no particular order) paid host to: The Roman invasion of Britain The emperor Claudius King Canute Richard The Lion Heart ! Henry VIII Elizabeth 1 They found an original Magna Carta there ! It was an assembly point for blokes going off to Flanders It was mentioned in the Anglo Saxon chronicle and The doomsday book ! But nah.....f**k all that, build a load of houses all over it to make room for odd marks ! f***ing disgrace that country and the people running it ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
