Oops, it would have been a better idea, I must admit I only read it very quickly and missed that bit.

But how can someone who has a lifestyle like that get themselves into a position where they need food parcels. As for not being able to sell the car, someone will always want to buy it, but not at the price they might want to sell it for. It must have been a terrible car for someone not to want to buy it at all. I can't help wondering if they are largely responsible their own situation. Enjoying the trappings of a lifestyle they couldn't afford but ignoring things that really matter. It appears they still managed to go on holiday though.
