Obviously satire, dozy wankers

For the last few years we go on holiday to Wales and stay in the 'nothing' zone. I don't get how people live there without going insane. Lovely to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.

We stayed at a campsite once which promoted being off the grid, the facilities were actually the best over ever seen. To get a phone signal it was 15min drive away. Off the grid was nice but planning the next day events was a bit difficult. Kind of shows how reliant we are on technology for basic map reading. Not sure how I feel about that.

Something that I always wonder about people that live in these places is: what do they do for work? There's barely anything around. My only conclusions are that they're either retired, or farm workers.
