Me stoopid Government is trying to change how vehicle tax is calculated.

Rather than engine size or emissions they want to base it on the weight of the vehicle (this does of course exclude heavy battery laden lektrick cars!)

Yeah, even though I said I wouldn't go back to IT.
Given the difficulty I've had in finding another career over the past few months I think this is the best option at this time.

Congratulayshuns. It can be ard gerrin anuvva job if yer bin paid to do IT. Peeps tend to catagorise yer as IT only. Once innit yer can't gerra way from it. Cos they consider yer...










useless.

It's because nuffink ever works once yer got yer hands onnit.

Tis what eye tell the IT peeps at wuk.

Yes, it's wet and windy but nothing like we were led to believe it was going to be like …. so far.
Not withstanding the yuck weather, the wee one's gone out to resume 'is kip and the big 'un sleeps on and I'm back in bed wi me cuppa.
I'm looking forward to going for the dog trip in my own car - that D Sport is just a bit too small for my liking and I was glad to give it back yesterday.
Have a good day folks and try not to let this unpleasant band of yuck weather stand in your way.
And to Shimmy, I bet you slept better last night after having released yourself from that mind-boring job. It did serve a good purpose though, you now know what it is like to do a mind-numbing job!
