It's a bog-standard council semi at that.

I caught a really dreaful old bunch of bull**** on Radio 4 last week. A
play about trying to achieve a zero emissions lifestyle. It was crap. It
also featured George Monbiot and a couple of other eco-mentalists
playing themselves.

Thank **** I missed that one. There's not much I can imagine being
worse, although stuck in a room with tooooomtard and gollum probably
comes close.

Guess what single activity they condemned the most?

Retired people living alone at a distance from their family, hence using
up resources that could be used by an entire family. Monbio claimed that
old people living alone consume vastly more than their fair share of
resources. That sounds just like someone we know and barely tolerate.

Indeed so. But I've no doubt that he has an *excellent* excuse for
living on his own in a 3-bed semi with single-glazed wooden-framed
windows. Unless he actually lives in the box on the driveway, presumably
to the disgust of the real occupants of 119...

So come on Duhg - what's your excuse & how do you justify it?


In the play they forced the grandfather to go and live with his
children.


They wouldn't have him, surely to goodness...?


Presumably, in the play, the offending grandfather's home was bulldozed
in order to make way for a rainforest-friendly carbon-neutral lesbian
basket weaving centre?
