Hi all,  I just want to ask you all to be vigilant when buying any items.  I recently went to buy an item.  I won't say exactly what it was because I do not want to embarrass the seller.  Anyway as I was carrying it to our car I noticed a red Beatle thing on it.  As we looked at the item it was covered in orange red bugs.  Hiding in corners and eggs etc.  It was a very unpleasant experience and has put me off anything ATM.  I obviously returned the item and got my cash back.  But it was awful and  scary as I could have ended up with a infestation.  later I googled bed bugs and this confirmed what we thought they were.   So please look carefully at any item you purchase and do your research.

Yeah it wasn't a nice experience. And I am really glad that the infestation was obvious  Or else I would have been horrified. And well out of pocket. As it would have cost a lot of money to get rid of the things. Let alone the anxiety it would have caused me.  I was very upset that evening and washed all my clothing and trainers on a long very hot wash to ensure that I didn't transfer anything to my house.  But I think most sellers would be more careful.  I hope.

    • I remember halfpennies. Farthings had gone by my time. 2/6 (half a crown) that looked very similar to 2s.  
    • Looks like moths have been at it!
    • "They sold everyone, directly or indirectly, on the notion that Covid, the energy crisis and the war in Ukraine had nothing to do with the sorry state of the UK and that it was 14 years of Tory rule and Truss' nightmare budget that was the source of all the country's woes. " This simply isn't true. Global issues all play their own parts (as they do with other countries) but the UK govt had  been especially abject for years. Improvements could not be made with them in power. That's not to say everything is all roses when they go To claim parties shouldn't try and sell themselves in an election is absurd - but if labour did overpromise or dig into specifics (which they partly couldn't because they didn't have their hands on the books) then we live in a country where a population and media is happy to punch on them and relect the shabby last govt I mean if any argument I made was supported by some posters I would rethink it but thats just me
