But EasyJet and Ryanair seem to be conspiring to raise my blood pressure to new heights. It all starts with the price. A flight to Spain for £50 - bargain. Oh, you want a seat? That’ll be extra. And you want to bring a cabin bag? That’s a lot extra. And a bag in the hold too? Before you know it, you seem to be buying shares in the airline. Ok, you’ve got over the shock of a £50 flight now costing closer to £200. Then you get to the airport.

Years ago we were having new doors fitted at a double garage in our previous house. We decided to "shop local" and ordered doors from a Yeovil company.
