    Default The real costs ....

    I recently visited a fabulously special and gorgeous lady in Limerick and I was thinking about the hidden costs of 'countrywide' visits.
    It was a 600km round trip with a fuel consumption of 7.78km/litre which equates to €110, the bottle of wine in this case was €22, parking another €8, not to mention wear and tear on the vehicle, tax and insurance ............ it piles on doesnt it!
    However, one of the reasons she is fabulously special is that she 'appreciates' the effort I made to see her ......

    What are your hidden costs?

    Now compare these costs against the costs of having sex with your wife/partner!!!!

    Neither did I until I read the post on fuel costs! However, you need to travel sometimes to see the best and rarely do we get 'good stock' in the South East!

    My hidden costs include separation and a second home.

    Occasionally a bottle of wine, usually in €10-€15 category.
