    That'll be the dock where titanic was built?

    Almost but not quite. That's the Thompson Dry Dock and Pump-house. It's where all the Olympic class White Star ships were outfitted before departing for their commission. Titanic was the first ship to use it.

    What would have made a lovely commemoration would have been to somehow put a light installation in the dry dock to show the true scale of Titanic. I've walked the dock many times and it's a heck of a stroll but back when I worked there, the dock wasn't well looked after and was full of rubbish. It's amazing seeing the steps and entrances the workers used to work on Titanic.

    810L is the "normal" tax code from April 2012 (you can earn £8105 before paying tax). Were you paying tax back to have such a low code as 357L?

    No it all stems from 2009 when the company I work for changed its name - only slightly - ie it was MissLaidsjob limited and changed to MissLaidsjob plc, ever since then the tax office have insisted I had 2 jobs for that year, I have wrote to them on at least 8 occasions, I have telephoned them more, each time the person on the other end agres with me and says they will sort it, each time it continues to be the same :mad:

    So from next tax year it seems sorted then?:T I hope you get a nice little windfall of what you are owed from paying extra. Spend it wisely ;) I know of a place which has lots of good "deals"...:cool:

    another thick question coming up :D

    why does it matter if you have more than one job in a year?
    thanks x
    You can't make someone love you. All you can do is
    stalk them & hope they panic & give in

    God created men first, cause you always makes a rough draft before a masterpiece!

    I liked the Hotel Chocolat page and it took me onto a page saying I'd already won a load of stuff and to pick another key, I did and only won an egglet, what's happened with the other stuff then? Is that it now?

    Got about

    3 thick eggs
    2 selection
    2 seeker or something like that
    Egg basket
    Sandwich

    Isn't it sad that I didn't bother claiming the baskets and sandwiches as they came up - I wanted the ostrich egg or the years supply of cocky but didn't get it!

    But my set of scales is happy I didn't!


    Should say cocky not cocky!!

    I love you guys
    Still not right Dodo ;)

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)
