Thank you, that has me wondering again about Class 2. I was working in the UK and then left a few years ago to work overseas. I kept up NI payments for a while and then stopped. I wrote a letter to HMRC a couple of weeks ago and i suggested i could pay 10 years of Class 2 and if they agree how can i pay. Depending on the reply i will think what the next move is.

I think that answers my question and I need to pay Class 3. The reason i had a slight hope for Class 2 is in the table below. For tax year 2022/23 Type Weekly amount Class 2 £3.15 Class 3 £15.85

I have another 10 years of contributions to pay and have recently asked GOV.UK how many of those can be paid as a lump sum. But i'm not sure yet whether these 10 years can be paid as Class 2 or Class 3. The difference in the weekly amount is a lot.

Same with AIDS in the mid to late 80's. It's the bisexuals to worry about.

Been trying to hurry up my new passport. Twice now i've called the passport office in Durham and got through 1st time with just one ring, but after a chat haven't managed to get any real action. Still 5 weeks to go before i travel so not given up hope yet...

As far as I can see she asked a typical question and Jambo answered very eloquently. That's it ism't it. And a welcome bit of Bob Dylan.

Yes,I've worked in several countries and they might call me "whitey", "farang" "obroni coco" etc. I don't care. Nigger implications back to the days of slavery are beyond my knowledge. Also kike etc. for Jews i will leave to you to consider

Legal action waste of time, and more importantly money. You seem to be getting on with life's challenges well. Moved me closer to no meat (reduced but still likely to have beef when dining out)

Any point in writing to them? Seems to be a strong point of yours (if we set aside the "fucking robbing cunts" part (i left out the exclamation mark as that was a bit extreme) Just a "please reconsider as the refund seems low considering the duration that the policy has been in effect since Feb"

Reading on my kindle, just noticed its a TV series - more investigation needed.

I just looked on wikipedia and its correct, but surprising. Malta was the last country in europe to introduce divorce. "Every nation in the world allows its residents to divorce under some conditions except the Philippines (though Muslims in the Philippines have the right to divorce) and the Vatican City, an ecclesiastical sovereign city-state, which has no procedure for divorce. In these two countries, laws only allow annulment of marriages."

Black and White minstrels on the BBC until 1989

I would never have guessed that. Well done remembering!

Don't know which would be more deadly, the gun or the mountain of streaky bacon. Looks good though...

What's that green object at the top of the glass?

You frequent a pub where there are "bad drug deals or something;" The worst crimes i see in my local are a short pulled pint, or a pork pie passed it's sell by date.

A song i haven't heard since high school. If I'm not wrong a bonus track on No Mean Cities.

I get 3 BBC channels (including a news channel) with my Singtel cable tv subscription. Those 3 channels plus Netflix are just about all I watch. I do agree with your comment about older people with very limited income. Perhaps they could be given free access. I doubt a subscription based service would reduce the cost. I just read on the BBC website that the licence fee will be terminated in 2027.

Will i be posting the ads as well? No YT premium.

How to post music here, is it adding a file or a URL? I achieved an image before but not sure if a video is as easy.

I like the BBC, it has some failings, could improve, but overall a service to be proud of. I also think it's best funded by the TV licence, it works so why change it (not that I pay of course)

555 but if stress relieving and normalising is done just a couple of paracetemol needed.

England are slight favourites for ODI3, probably more from home advantage than confidence.
