There's always a rough element everywhere. Depending on your background, age, lifestyle, income, ethnicity you can be right in the chaotic centre if it or live your whole life without noticing it.

Major respect to you for taking that piece of shit to court. I hope the judge threw the book at them and that you are doing OK.

Off Grid Living, is it possible?

Posted by 37yearoldonthehunt@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 10 comments

No such thing as off grid. Short of joining one of the few remaining Hunter Gatherer peoples in the planet, you are gonna be locked in to some aspect of the global economy and the fossil fuel system. Living in a van? Fossil fuels. Living on a boat (thass me btw) ? Fossil Fuels. Living on a small holding, even with full solar electricity? Still locked into "the system" via your vehicle (cos you live in the country), your Council tax, probably your water bill etc. And, at the first hint of a toothache, you'll be straight round the dentist. By all means, simplify your life. Consume way less. Produce as much of your own food and energy as you can (bloody hard work btw) and develop a range of skills. But don't kid yourself.

Mmmm, yes and no. Firstly for lots of kids, school is the safest and most interesting part of their day. So many kids have desperately awful home lives. Also, the quality of home schooling is wildly varied. I'm a fully qualified MFL teacher and could probably get a kid over the line in all the Humanities but not the Arts, Sciences or Maths. Not sure your average parent could pull off 9 passes at GCSE.

I've got a small dog and am perfectly OK with restaurants banning dogs. I am glad that pubs don't however as that would make my life a misery. So many pubs now serve excellent food so I'm happy. Im also happy to leave doggo at home and go to a nice restaurant.
