The Internet

Save your Money

Cafe WIM: 3 money drains You know the expression “it is money down the drain.” On the side of your house is.. a water-meter. If all taps in the house are off, the meter does not run. However the moment a tap is turned on the meter shows the water-usage. Than comes the man who reads […]

The feel of a new suit without expectations. A cafe in an impressive restaurant setting. Yet, merely […]
