    This is the Census, the whole thing's rather odd lol.
  • Given the whole complexity of the exercise in terms of the collection process I find it remarkable just how little data they do collect.

    For instance nothing in the Census on how far your place of work is from your home, how many miles you drive, what your income is, what your monthly expenditure is etc.

    I personally feel the census should carry on (as the historical aspects of who lived at an address are very useful to anyone doing ancestor research) but that substantially more data should be collected about everyone surveyed if it is continue to be worthwhile. Travel patterns in particular seem to be a huge missed opportunity for future government planning.

    I managed to get 3 HD1s off previously difficult to contact HH at the usual times.


    HD1s? Never heard of them. You seem to be very keen to use all the jargon to try and prove you're what you say you are. Got that one wrong though :rotfl:

    That's because I am, you dunce.

    Well clearly you're as blind as your fwend is bored. And not very observant either. My mistake, I seem to be fixated with what's on the front of the large envelops (HD1) the same goes for Dummy tapes (I keep calling them that) as opposed to Dummy questionnaire, but of course you're right in that the correct name is H1. But still, nice to see you've never heard of it eh? seeing as you're a CC yourself.

    Cheap point scoring for being utterly wrong about my role.

    Desperate much?

    No one refers to them as HD1s nor are they called that in any of the instructions issued. Why would you call them after that tiny lettering in the corner of the envelope when it has H1 splashed about 10 times bigger? Sorry, you lose. :rotfl:

    Nope, the replacement questionnaires that your coord gives you are in bigger envelope which has HD1 written on the bottom right hand side. The form inside has H1 written on it. God but you're dumb. How did YOU get the gig. Tell the truth, someone else did your Siftability test and web learning no?

    Yes, that's right, I lose.

    I bet you haven't even figured out a way to see your return % just by looking at the work sheet your coord gives back to you?

    Nah you're just going through the motions, cos you is well bored, innit?


    Bored with you though. Oooh it's contagious!
