is anyone actually saving money? you would think so but I'm not sure we really are. supermarkets and utilities are profiteering across the board.

Erm ... let's just say £6k last month says not really ???? Having to forward buy tonnes of materials and tools for the house and garden, do repairs on 2 cars early in the week before lockdown, lay in massive stores of bottled water (we don't drink tap water and rely on deliveries now rationed) and buying for 3 meals a day has taken a massive toll on my wallet ?

Keeping the troops fed like royalty and progress being made has helped massively though - it;s cut the rows down to 2 major ones in 5 weeks despite all the problems and stress.

Hasn't helped that I transferred money from HSBC to Lloyds to pay off the credit card in 2 chunks of an equal amount on the same day, and bloody HSBC decided to recall one of the payments. Lloyds then reversed both and the second one has gone missing. So at the moment somebody has nicked 2 grand off me between the two banks and I've had to cover it. Really is all you need under the current circumstances :rolleyes::oops::mad:

Get a filter jug, put your money under a mattress...
 
as for illegal stuff - 2 DJ pals did did a facebook live stream on Sat night, in balaclavas! I couldn't tell who/if anyone else was there but it was like watching Underground Resistance taking over an old pub. very, very wrong indeed as another secret DJ used to say...
 
Not that Norwegian Airlines is particularly relevant to Ibiza but gives you an idea on how airlines are thinking this will pan out

'subject to travel restrictions'

it's still all only possible scenarios rather than hard facts or official decisions.
 
Norwegian is almost bankrupt and fired most of their staff. From the position they are today it will take a long time to resume they only got staff left in Norway and a few other nations. I think its a good sign that Oleary is bickering over airline seats. A clear indication that there is some form of negotiation involved behind the scenes.

Airlines already resumed in Asia and even the most troubled regions at the start of the year have flights arriving and departing now.
