They didn't offer any of the €15k a year to you, did they?

They hadn’t been paying since 2008, hence it was all derelict trash - they don’t even have the budget to maintain the roads or keep the school open, never mind monitor river levels.

My interest was not drowning, rather than pecuniary.

[madaxe_again]

Care and education, and whatever they can manage with whatever’s left over. Same as pretty much every council everywhere.
