His dad was quite right Waddo, 10 is too young to be employed but he can volunteer all he likes!

I suggest Ebay...

Size and price don't always have a correlation... Edit: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=7&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjMj8HBr-XmAhVShlwKHUq0BK8QFjAGegQIDRAT&url=https%3A%2F%2Fthehappiesthour.com%2Ffeatures%2Fpot-schooner-pint-or-jug%2F&usg=AOvVaw0c_btGQwr537MyhDwO_Cr0

Oh contrary mon amy! I tired a schooner of Australian sherry in Yates's many moons ago, I don't remember much past the halfway mark and had a headache that lasted three days!

There's always one!.....

Strictly speaking passengers are not allowed in the lift. You are supposed to drive your vehicle in and then walk down the stairs after setting the lift going. There was never an phone as far as I can remember though there is a brass push button for the bell. You must have had quite a small lorry BK, there is hardly room for anything bigger than a 3 ton van.

I've been down hundreds of times, there's a sub-station down there. There no man to take you down now. you have to go into the council offices to get the key.

I had a large jar of retro sweets as a stocking filler... I'd forgotten just how much the sherbet flying saucers mek yer tabs laugh....

Legally you can call yourself whatever you fancy, with certain provisos. Call me what you like so long as it's not late for dinner! If you want to have your name/s changed on a legal document a deed poll costs about £15.. https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwjZ9c23p9bmAhWNtO0KHe5fB-sYABADGgJkZw&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAASE-RoXwE9JOnKc154zEhvXr8ZFmU&sig=AOD64_0fMMlVtrFJApUg8l3lKMQSLDPd1g&q=&ved=2ahUKEwi43Ma3p9bmAhVTolwKHTMiB8wQ0Qx6BAgTEAE&adurl=

You're right Waddo, a fact I hadn't realised. The car I we saw though was definitely a mini and not one of the booted variants.

Anyone know how the custom of having a middle name started? Seems rather a waste of time if it's never used although I confess both my kids carry two forenames.

This could veer into politics. Getting rid of the licence will mean central government will have to pick up the tab and he who pays the piper calls the tune. Governments, of any flavour, controlling the media is a very, very bad idea. It may also be the first step in selling it off.

That will be the square root of bugger all CT. The TV licence generates an inordinate amount of grumbling, almost as much as parking fines yet compared with other forms of taxation the amount is tiny. The top bundle from Virgin is almost as much as the annual TV licence... per month. Could it be the fact payment is voluntary and not taken surreptitiously via PAYE or VAT?

Anyone claiming benefits?

iPlayer yes, I pad no... unless you watch iPlayer

You're not watching it 'live' on catch up you're watching a recording.. Radio licences stopped sometime in the 60's (I think)

Yes you have received a 'live' broadcast.

We must be careful what we wish for and there is still plenty of entertainment without a cable or satellite subscription. You have a choice of what you want to pay for, nothing is compulsory and the licence fee amounts to less than a couple of cups of coffee a week! ! If your friend only watches 'catch up' TV she is correct. You only need a licence for 'live TV'. I take it you object to the tone of the letters but you and your family have been / still are in business - how are your letters to debtors worded? The ones I draft leave the recipient in no doubt whatsoever of th

There are a lot of grumbles and criticism regarding the licence fee but despite the many faults of the BBC I feel it's still a bargain for what we get. £150 compared to £800+ for cable? can't grumble at that

You're right CT we thought of those names as old fashioned. The list for my birth year (1945), reads: It's from here: ... https://www.babycenter.com/top-baby-names-1945.htm 1 Mary James 2 Linda Robert 3 Barbara John 4 Patricia William 5 Carol Richard 6 Sandra David 7 Nancy

Your question 'then why not give the option to explain'. The answer, because they don't give a stuff what anyone says, they just want the money!

the law in England say that you are guilty until proven innocent

No might about it... you are wrong... 'Do reply' usually mean the reply will not be read and therefore saves you wasting time and effort and getting all bent out of shape when there is no answer.

The truth is you are in a very small minority who are actually telling the truth and have no TV or access to it whilst away. Here's a sample of the excuses: One non-payer claimed: “I don’t need to buy a licence as I live like a Buddha". "When I called TV Licensing they refused to barter so I decided not to buy. Everything should be up for negotiation." Another TV owner said he only put the set on to be able to see in the dark. You can't really blame them for having a somewhat jaundiced view when someone says they don't need to buy a licence
