  2. Just on a side note. The cost for a mast to be put up would be around £1K. So make sure you get compensated correctly.

     

    Now thats what i wanted to hear!

     

    Can the cable not be put undreground and do away with the need for poles etc and mounting anything on your walls?

     

    Don't know, there is an unadopted lane which runs down to the property but is full of other services so probably a lot easier to bounce the wire from my house.

  3. Got a letter today from bt openreach asking if they could have permission to install a phone line onto my house wall for a new build house behind my house and if they dont get consent they would have to put a new mast up. Now i dont want to fall out with the new neighbour (even though hes an are! and probably if shoe was on the other foot wouldnt give me permission). They letter says i would get a small payment if i consent. Anyone ever come across this and is there any kind of pros and cons to this? Any one ever had anything simlar?

  5. I had my photo driving licence done at the post office this year. They checked the paperwork for me. After the photo was taken that even showed me the photo on the computer screen to make sure I was happy with it. They sent everything off electronically to DVLC. All for £4 more than the licence renewal. As most photo booths are at least £5 it was very good value.

    Whats this got to do with a passport photo?😳

  6. I for one will NOT be signing any e-petition for this

    i pay my taxes the same as anyone else in any other job why ahould they jump the queue or be given special privileges, and would advise anyone else thinking about signing it because of pressure from ex services and familys of serving personell to make your own decision. If you want to sign then do so but if you think this is unfair and dont agree then dont sign it.

  7. My take on all of this is that if anyone is mistakenly paid more than they are entitled to for whatever reason, then it should be paid back. I can't see what the issue is here. I don't care if they are serving or ex-serving. I don't see what anyones occupation has to do with being overpaid.

    There are many instances of people in all walks of life being overpaid income they thought they were entitled to, and are then told that it must be paid back; why do some think armed forces personnel should be exempt?

    I have the utmost respect for those who join the armed forces, knowing what that can entail, and they do a fantastic job with not always the best of kit nor leadership, but they weren't forced to enlist, they volunteered. Many in previous generations didn't have that choice.

    I get quite annoyed when some start bleating on about how they deserve this and they deserve that, and we should all be giving to Help for Heroes etc etc because of the sacrifices they made for us and their country, but at the end of the day, they weren't forced to join.They were all perfectly aware of what the consequences of their decision to join could lead to. How about all those serving and ex-serving police and firefighters, traumatised by what they've experienced or invalided out due to injuries received in their work? Are they any different? The PC confronted by Raoul Moat was left blind and eventually committed suicide; two female police officers were lured into a trap via a call and shot and killed. They all joined fully knowing that they could be confronted by all manner of unknown situations at any time, and would be expected to do so unarmed. What about them and those they left behind?

    I totally agree that our armed forces personnel deserve this that and the other, and certainly more than they currently receive, but that is what we pay our taxes for. It is any governments job to ensure our serving men and women get what they are entitled to,and that includes the care they need post event.

    You can give all you want to meaningful charities, but if you want to make a real difference, and you REALLY CARE, then get off your backsides and march down to Westminster and make DEMANDS. I'm sure the media would back you all the way. Anyone can drop a quid in a charity box, that's the easy option, as is having a pop at those who don't agree our armed forces should be treat any differently.

    If anyone wants an inkling of how successive governments and the MOD treat their (especially wounded) ex-military, then have a read of 'Tumbledown' by Robert Lawrence; a real eye opener.

    Looking after our armed forces is not only a question of funding, but bureaucratic attitude.

    Took the words right out of my mouth! Top marks to this man and well said.

  8. Why shouldnt they???? They have had payments they were not entitled to regardless of who's fault it was. Same as anyone who works or anyone who claims benefits and gets overpaid they will have to pay it back. What difference does it make if its the mod and are soldiers etc? it's irrelevant, and they should without shadow of doubt repay every penny they were not entitled to end of.
