    I submit monthly reading , pay that months figure by dd
    You say you only pay for what you use - but we are also going to pay for what others use- Ofgems instruction to the companies to apply an extra charge to paying customers to cover the arrears of others . Ofgem helping them keep up their cash flow and increasing profits

    Aye I do the same thing except pay it the day after it arrives,
    Every year they say I have to open a dd to get the cheaper rate so I do. After the first month just cancel it and pay for what you use. They never alter the rate ( eon ) they just leave it<laugh> mind they are corrupt bastards anyway if you go full dd method, so bollocks to them.

    Big news on women's pensions coming soon. Maybe it's just me but women want equality in everything, which I agree with, and have always practiced in my businesses. Except pension age, where they were historically better off than men, before the levelling up.

    If you're referring to what the news is, no, but getting compensation for their losses due to not being given enough notice of the change in the pension date from 60 to 65

    What it means is we want equal rights if we are worse off than 'x group' but if we are better off we don't want equal rights and stay how we are thanks!

    When you look at statistics women live longer so if anyone should be working longer? Maybe the early retirement and traditionally the woman being the housemaker is the reason for those stats and we will see a change in future generations?

    Calls today to boycott Nike for messing with the English flag -- quickly followed by Iceland taking the cross off their Hot Cross buns.

    So it turns out that we have a new digital marketing partner (ROAR) who joined yesterday.

    And it also turns out that their Managing Director is a mag…. How do I know this? He’s my cousin!!!

    Really good at what he does though so it won’t get in the way

    Obviously this is based on tickets bought rather than actual attendees, as it will be with every club, but we're doing alright, aren't we :emoticon-0105-wink:
