Title: Big Brother comes calling
Post by: Nick on July 17, 2012, 10:03:55 AM: Someone rang my doorbell yesterday. Naturally, I ignored it. Later I found a card telling me that someone had called from the council to verify that I lived alone (Council Tax discount)

I called the number and asked how I could prove this. "They may want to see your bedroom" cussing: cussing: cussing: cussing: cussing:

Since my council is about the only one in the country whcih refuses to publish its accounts online cussing: cussing: cussing: cussing: I asked whether the caller would come prepared to tell me how they ~~waste~~ spend my fooking tax. Oh noes.

Let battle commence. eveilgrin:
