I let an elderly neighbour benefit from my outside light

something like a pound - so she dug one out and wouldn't
let me leave without it


Of course a true professional like TMH would have looked online for
the most expensive rate, then discounted it by 10% and thought he was
doing his customers a favour!


Well it is always nice to have a total **** like yourself vent your opinion.
Now do **** off you steaming great ****.

That's fine so long as you are honest about it.
