An in-between phase

Oh for goodness sake, why can't they ever get anything let alone very basic things right @badmemory
If you have a self-assessment account might be worth submitting that, but if not I guess just estimate how much you might owe and put that aside in an interest paying account for when they inevitably come asking for it.
Or you could submit a complaint to get it looked at but that's another thing to do and with no guarantee they'll actually sort it..

I do have a fair idea of how much I owe as always.  I am now worrying that they think I am dead & will stop my state pension.  Unfortunately they have deleted my self assessment account as they will only now deal with me via simple assessment.  Frankly their incompetence seems to know no bounds.  I am seriously p***** off. 

On thinking about it I remember a girl a few years ago trying to tell me because I had a tax code to take my tax from my private pension I didn't need to do anything & I had to explain that it didn't matter what tax code they gave me it would not be able to take enough from the private pension.  I wonder if some idiot has decided to do that again.

Thanks for making me look at this from another angle.

The second one I think is Raphael. Not sure about the first one 🤔

I’ve just finished reading a book I didn’t want to end, it was so lovely - How to find love in a bookshop by Veronica Henry. Very chick lit but loved the characters. I like to alternate my reading between thrillers and lighter reading.

Chippie chips with lots of salt and vinegar and drowned in chip shop gravy! 🤤 😉

Oh good thinking @Sun_Addict, took me a while to work out why! 

Mr PIP had mayonnaise with his @KajiKita, obviously I called him a wrong 'un

For the crossword a lama is some kind of priest or monk I think, but I don’t get what the France bit is all about, so it might not be that. Then I was thinking papa is French, but nope…I’m no clever crossword person. It took me a while to work out SA’s answer too 😬
