Dave I couldn't agree more with your points regarding taxation , don't talk to me about the government and councils!, and I certainly would not like to be running a business in the UK these days. The fact is times are getting very tough for many of us I for instance am earning less than I was 12 years ago and it is cutting deep to say the least. Thus my remark was not aimed at over pricing just that it is out of my league for the foreseeable and I'm sure that is the case for many others in our part of the world. But I live in hope and if things pick up you will be getting a call re a blood sucker one!
