Week 261 – March 6th – Cost of living survey
Over a month since I was first asked if I would do this survey, we were finally able to do it.
Bob came around and asked various questions. Most were the same from other times we had done the survey.
This is one of the ways the government see how households are coping in life regarding living and cost of stuff.

Week 261 – March 4th – New car or not new car
So today we drove to get the new car, even though we had not heard from car supplier.
We entered the show room and I saw our sales person, as I walked towards him, I could see that he was surprised to see us.
Yes he wasn’t expecting us and hadn’t read the email I sent.
So annoying, after trying to sort this out in advance.
Cut a long story, short, will go back on Friday.

West Bromwich Albion ended leaders Leeds United‘s five-game winning Championship run as they came from behind to earn a point.
Junior Firpo headed Leeds into an early lead, but fellow defender Darnell Furlong nodded in a leveller six minutes before the break.
Leeds are now six points clear at the top going into the afternoon games, which include second-placed Sheffield United’s trip to Queens Park Rangers.
But a draw was a fair outcome – the Baggies’ 16th in 35 league games this season, more than any other Championship team – and their second of the campaign against Leeds.
Leeds had an early let-off when, from Isaac Price’s pass, John Swift scuffed his low right-foot shot just past the post. And, just two minutes later, the hosts took full advantage.
Wales winger Daniel James cut in down the left to deliver a wickedly dipping cross from his right foot – and Firpo rose at the near post to head home his third goal of the season, and second of the week, having also netted in Monday’s late win over the Blades which was his first at Elland Road in just over two years.
But Albion levelled with a header of their own.
Swift’s deep free-kick from the right was swung beyond the far post – and Furlong went aerial for his first goal since 4 May, looping an angled header back over the head of stranded keeper Illan Meslier and inside the right upright.
Mikey Johnston engineered another opening for Furlong on 70 minutes but this time the free-roving Albion full-back powered an acrobatic header just over from close range.
Tom Fellows was stopped by Joe Rodon‘s challenge when he went clear with a late chance for the Albion, while at the other end Leeds substitute Mateo Joseph struck the bar following a driving run in the box and James also went close.
But neither side could find a winner as the two sides drew for the second time this season following a desperate goalless draw at The Hawthorns in August.
We can’t drop points at home, we need to win the home games, as we can’t afford not to get promoted automatically due to our dreadful play-off record.
Come on Leeds.
Marching On Together.
League position 1st after 35 games – After 35 games last season, Leeds were 2nd
