    hey man in the moon,im not far from you ba9 got 2 payments as well on wednesday think were covered by the yeovilton station spot on

    I'm hoping it gets colder here again now :D
  • The payments are still being churned out ... we've got nearly 600 to send out by hand cos the "system" spat out its silicon dummy & couldn't manage the payments ...

    Mm. 600. That'll take one person 2-3 weeks to process, assuming we can even find someone spare to do it.

    In a word - yes. There has to be a cut-off somewhere and whether its right or wrong is a whole other can of worms!
