Thinking how there is no chair in the house as comfortable as my car seat. Why aren't we all combing the scrapyard for old car seats to put in the house.  Huh

My friend bought a new comfy chair last year for her craft room. Twice we went to a bunch of shops and sat on every single chair to find the perfect one!
We bought an orthopedic armchair for my Dad that looks ok as well as being supportive. But he doesn't seem to sit in it a lot (bought with his testing and approval 🤦) so I use it when I visit 🤣 The couch is way to low/soft for my dodgy back.
Congratulations @E.N., I hope you're all very happy in your new home.

Best of luck with getting to the same stage @Trigger, it all seems very complicated and drawnout here compared to other countries.

Country is at practical full employment and prices and pay are going up - more corporate tax and income tax especially from the big 10 global major corporations and their employees, more VAT as prices rise...

Yes I was saying to someone recently, oh bully for them dropping the VAT rate on gas and electric. The rate is down a third, but the price is up over a half, so they are getting in more VAT on that than ever despite the decrease 😅🤣

At least we'll be getting some of it back...
Yeah even with these measures there is a big surplus left I think?

Personally didn't get a whole lot from it. The energy credit is probably the best one as we're in an A rated home so although prices are still going to be massive we definitely haven't been hit as bad as most
Think the surplus is gone into the rainy day fund
