Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

Agreed.Elderly miserly relatives are teh bomb. Sitting there, wrapped in a duvet and re-using teabags as your inheritance notches up the old interest.
Wish my old man, well, step-old man was like that. Never know where the fucker is from one week to the next now he's retired and re-married after mum died*... Paris, Milan, Berlin, Greece... Changes his (sporty) car once a year although at his age, he increasingly drives like a kid playing a video game and scares the shit out of me.
I'd like to see a piccy of the shed the OP mentioned...
*yeah, TWO step-parents. Top that!
