Which shop?

Which services would you like them to cut?

Cutting services isn't the only way for a concil to save money. Does the council really need 759 full time posts? Didn't I read in the DT how Bolsover Council and NE Derbyshire Council are sharing their managers?

(With apologies for going waaaay off topic...)

You did indeed.
Go ask the average rank and file members of staff at NEDDC or BDC how that one is going!!!!

[Big Dave]

Bit early to ask, it only happened last week didn't it? Seems a good idea to me, reduce costs to maintain services.

Anyway, back on topic, the only thing we haven't been able to buy locally recently has been a round filter for a Dyson cleaner.

Daft as this sounds have you tried Dansies?
I was in there a week or so ago buying some envelopes and they seem to have branched out into cleaner supply and servicing.
Wonder if they are trying to catch the business from people looking for Midland Cleaning who used to be on the opposite corner.

Hadn't thought of them, don't go Chatsworth Road way often. I think the last one we bought was from Killis on Sheffield Road but it cost a packet, over £11 from memory. O/H decided yesterday to buy a couple off Ebay for less than a tenner the pair.

Pick your time to go shopping.
