In drama, I never played the part of Harold Bishop, but I did play the part of a Bishop. The top part! |

As bad as warmongering is over our globe, what for me is really frightening are the so called natural disasters.

This happened when I was a teenager. It trashed the greenhouse, killed a few cows and left the garden under about 10 inches of massive hailstones. There instantly sprang up a peasouper fog (it was a really hot day) and the rapid melt then left the garden under a temporary flood. It was very weird.![]() |

HEATING FOR THOUGHT.
Until last year, I would have posted this blerp inside our Retirement topic, which is where it might end up, but the impact of energy price increases is affecting most folk.
Disregarding social welfare help, folk living on their own, like me at present, in three/four bed homes, must be in the category of high impact cost change. In my present reasonable health, I don't need my heating hyped as I did keeping Pamela warm. My thoughts do turn to that group just now.
I'm on a fixed tariff, but that ends in December. My heating consumption this past winter was only a third of the previous winter. I can still trim it, but even so, I'm budgeting for at least twice this year's cost.
So many folks just won't cope, without social assistance. Will we see families merging into single households. Maybe a glut of higher priced properties coming on to the market. The possible projected ramifications are mind blowing.
At present, nearly nine million people are single occupancy status. Within that group, the out of control impact will be… you know what's coming hey!… Equity release, folks financially trapped like prisoners in their own home, but cannot afford the hyper cost of living.
Any thoughts on this? |

I'm not sure that it will result in a lot of vacant properties. Though I fear that equity release companies will start advertising using the energy crisis as a reason for the elderly to 'free up cash'. |
