But his retirement plans are now in “disarray” and “ruined” cos he’s going to have to find an additional £208.33 per month?

He has £2-4 million in savings/investments but claims he is not “cash-rich” and his house was his only “pension”

Seriously @Telegraph, where do you find these people?🤣🤣🙄

The public is being asked to help build up a map of feral pig sightings across Scotland. Some volunteers have already dropped out, initially thinking they were having fun looking at pigs, but it turned out to be a boar.

From this budget, the sugar tax will now apply to milk-based drinks, with the money going towards schemes like getting young men interested in Shakespeare. The chancellor hopes her milkshake brings all the boys to the Bard.

Listeners across Scotland have been waking up to a new show this week, with Good Morning Scotland replaced with Radio Scotland Breakfast. The first show ended with a toast, causing complaints as a breakfast in Scotland should always be with a Tattie Scone.

Tax on people who don't wipe their machine down at the gym and leave it so moist you could grow mushrooms in the seam.
Tax on people who go to lane swimming and then swim very slowly two abreast so they're hard to get round without swimming into people coming the other way, having a bit of a chat
Tax on people who get off an escalator and then immediately stand still to find something about their person

Quality Street has been £5 since the dawn of time, as that's what people feel is a 'nice price'. The wonders of economics and psychology
The only reason that BIG TIN of chocolates went out of fashion was because people generally won't buy them.

But people will buy a smaller tub every week for £4.50 when they go shopping, weeks before Christmas.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: M&S' £12 "BIG TIN" of chocolates is exactly how you remember Quality Street was as a child, i.e. it's actually a big fucking tin full to the brim of chocolate and not a half-filled plastic tub of sadness

To avoid conflict, you should tell your partner what you're doing as you pick up your phone, like saying "I'm just checking train times" or "I'm just replying to my mother." To start a conflict, say "I'm just having a browse of Tinder."

Commentators compared Scott McTominay's goal for Scotland to Archie Gemmill's in 1978, meaning it's only 18 years until we get a clip of it interspersed with Ewan McGregor shagging in Trainspotting Three.

London councils are asking people to grit their own roads during this week’s cold snap. Temperatures in the capital got so low that there was chaos on the roads, locals couldn't cope, and visiting northerners needed to wear a jumper.
