    You have lost a lot of money and that is bound to stress you out when living and surviving in a country like this..(Not to mention make you damned angry especially when having to go back to bleak UK in a period of depression) )
    My mrs does all our bargaining and I never get involved with government offices here!
    I Leave it to the women to do that stuff and so far I have never been overcharged or had to hand out brown envelopes ect..
    We live 500 mtrs from the highway and dont even get carol singers..Strangers coming anywhere near us have the dogs to deal with anyway..
