    Oh well worriedwife best get your checkbook out and pay that £1000 fine.

    Search job boards and there are hundreds of census jobs going for the summer.

    Oh by the way hows your father in law saw the PM you send about it being a spoof!!!!
    I all have learnt is from others on many sites.
    Seek legal help if unsure.
    Dont pay Private Parking tickets - they are mere invoices.

    PRESS THANKS

    I didn't say it would. But there has to come a time when you have to say enough is enough! They know too much already, and I am certainly not going to add to the pile.


    Well enjoy your fine then.

    The form is compulsory with a £1,000 fine for not completing it. The answers will be used to plan public services.

    For a start, I have never been fined before for the past 3 censuses. And even if I was, that is the maximum! If I am fined, it will be paid in an amoumt that I can afford.

    I'm too old to work!!! Are you joking?

    Still have problems with my father in law, but hopefully it will become clearer this afternoon thanks. Yes I too think that the whole thing is a spoof, either that or an elaborate joke at our expense!!!

    Have you not read the PM that you alledegly sent to another user that has posted it about it all be a spoof?

    I can't see that the information given in the census is going to enlighten anyone very much. All the important stuff - bank accounts, loans, driving licence, mobile phone information, passport details, marital status, children, insurances, television licence, etc, are already known by the authorities. I can't see how any of the extra information asked for in the census is going to put my liberty at risk!
    Indeed and we have given our lives away since the coming of digital age. Nothing is private though that's how it is purpoted.
    Money is not the root of all evil.
    It depends on how you obtain it and how you use it.

    Have you sold your soul to the devil?

    i'll admit that the only reason i havent filled mine in already is because i'm not sure what my situation will be on 27th lol
    got my step son and his girlfriend 'dithering' with regards to whether they want to move into our house or stay with her grandparents!
    once they get their backsides into gear and make a decision, i'll do the form!

    Oh I could tell you so much more but cannot for reasons!

    As if anyone would believe you even if you did!:rotfl:

    As they're accepting completed forms before the 27th I wonder how many dead people will be registered as still living on the census. Yet another headache for family historians in the future!
