  1. If we think Britain is bad, I would love to look at the expenses claimed by MEP's, I think it would make UK MP's expenses pale into insignificance.
  2. Ditto, just tried again and all the warnings have disappeared. At least it is back to normality.
  3. If I get up a page of results they all have this warning, time to change to another search engine!
  4. I am having the same problem but cannot blame it on any children. I am in UK. Perhaps one of the tech wizards will be able to help us.
  5. See OTHER TOPICS, the thread explains. Same problem as you. Hope this helps Honeydo
  6. Beg to differ.  Our sky+ box is not connected to phone line and we still get series links with no problems.
  7. Note however, if you have saved towards your retirement you may get no pension credit. This is not an automatic entitlement nor a guarantee.
  8. We have a constant problem with deer here in the UK we are in the middle of the countryside and have woodland surrounding the garden.  We have found that if we protect shrubs for a couple of years until they are big enough to cope with the odd crop they will be okay.  We now have a beautiful Ragged Robin which is cropped at the bottom every winter and spring but is large enough to cope.  Deer do not touch Buddlia,  Hydrangeas or Choisya. We grow most shrubs and now all survive.  We have three ceaonothus which we started in large pots, deer still tried to eat them, put them in the ground surrounded by fencing, fencing now removed and the plants are huge.  They love roses and all our roses are behind fencing.  So we enjoy them, mum, babies plus odd stag but have still managed to have a large beautiful garden.  I have to tell you however there have been many times when I have sworn at the damage caused but have over time learnt to live with them in relevant harmony. It is a wonderful sight to see them lying down on one of our banks apparently resting but always on their guard.  They do not seem to have much fear of humans and it is usually necessary to run at them to make them move. Best of luck with your new garden.
  9. Cassis many thanks for your reply much appreciated
  10. Received yesterday in the UK for department 17 payable 15th December the same as last year.  I have a question which somebody maybe able to help me with.  When we bought the apartment we chose not to buy the garage but we do have our own parking space.  We did inform the department that the original owner had retained the garage and we had just purchased the flat.  However I have noticed that we get charged for garage/parking, are parking spaces taxed or are they still charging us for the garage?  Replies gratefully received.
  11. No, I am having the same problems and only accessed the site by the same means as yourself.  Everything was okay yesterday.
  12. I am sure that this does not just apply to Barclays, but to all  banks from the Uk who hold offshore accounts. This was bound to happen under EU regulations.   Honeydo
  13. I lived abroad for twelve years, in the US and Switzerland, now back in Uk but have a second home in 17.  I learnt over the years the experience is what you make of it.  You will have frustrations, but the joy is the learning and then being able to say I did it. I had many friends with the same attitude, but others sadly couldn't or wouldn't adapt expecting everything to drop in  their laps.  I say go for it, on a whole you will find people helpful.  Even when we bought our place in 17, shopkeepers and the like seem to have gone out of their way to be helpful and extremely friendly.
  14. We are back only for all listings, the individual ones, sports, movies etc still not working Honeydo
  15. Just like to thank everybody who responded to my original postings.  It just shows how useful this forum is. If it hadn't been for all you guys we would have gone out and bought a new box.  Thank you everyone. Honeydo
