Right.
The prevous occupants of House 2 have had TVs and a licence. I have no TV and therefore no licence.
I have received a stream of threatening letters about this all of which I have ignored. Today's post brings:
OFFICIAL WARNING: WE HAVE OPENED AN INVESTIGATION
This btw is printed on the outside of the fooking envelope, just to let posty know cussing:
I think, "Fook them", but I call Bristol and find myself speaking, inevitably, to Tracey. Banghead
I say, I have no TV
Wait for it.........................
She says, "Why not?"
Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9: Angry9:
Let them come round in an armed raid! Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead

The letter says "out Enforcement Division" scared2: (do they wear camouflage clothing?) will schedule a visit. They can go eat their pants!

I'd cover yourself by writing them a latter (registered) stating that you have no telly... ;)

Can't you call Stanley round to fix your TV's Nick lol:

I am sure my intervention will not be welcome but the law is quite clear. Plug on or not if you have a television receiver in the premises then you MUST have a licence for it. Doesn't matter that it does not work. That is the law. Stupid I am sure but never the less your local magistrates will not be interested in the whereabouts of the plug.
As for access to your home ~ Sorry BM but you are way out of date. They can most certainly access your home and can call upon the assistance of the police if you attempt to stop them. They do not need a search warrant anymore.
Just a couple of the new offences out of the 3600+ that Labour have put on the books in 12 years. Compare that figure with the 464 new offences placed on the books by the Conservatives between 1988 and 1996

Well they must weigh something. Especially the ones with mahoosive attachments. If they exist they must weigh summat. How can things exist weightlessly? EH?

I could put my 'anorak' on and answer but to be honest I can't be bothered.
