There's 7 classes according to a new survey of 100+ people in the UK. They have moved away from the old 3 class classification and invented a few more. Hopefully they will do the same in a few years and go back to the regulatory 3 class system - you know where you stand then. 'I look up to him...' is easy to understand, but the more levels you have, the less likely you are to look up, more a look slightly sideways and upwards. Can you imagine the sketch? 'I look up to him a couple of classes above, and I look down to him, a couple of classes below, but I look marginally down a bit on them over at the side'. 'I look down on all of them, even those so far below me that I cant see them'.
John Cleese is still available, and I think the script needs some tidying up.
I have been calculating my electricity usage. My current provider (EDF, other electricity providers are available) seems to only read the meter every year or so. Therefore, because daughter number 1 has now moved out of the mobile homes I decided to do a reading and see what the damage was, and what a shock I had! If my calcs are correct (and the only thing that might be wrong is the price per KW) I found that since last August I have averaged over £14 per day. ..and that, surely is way too much. To prove how bad it was, I read the meter again this morning i.e. a full day of no lodgers, and I'm down to just over £7 for yesterday which in itself would be cause for alarm, but everything is relative, so I feel relieved to be only spending £7 a day. At least my standing order will reduce in about a years time.
