Do not bend
One of the aunties sent us a calendar for Xmas. It has just arrived today.
It is in a sturdy cardboard envelope marked
DO NOT BEND
It's bent.

Right down the length so it would go through the letterbox. Which means the spiral binding is bent too.

I'm still waiting for my tax disc which was ordered and paid for in december and the reminder for the tax disc for my other car that was sent out over a month ago. So I have one car with an out of date disc although I paid for a new one from the start of this month, and another which has a tax disc which runs out in 2 weeks....so now I have the fun of finding all the paperwork in our tuliphole of a house to get it taxed the old wayRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

That happened to me, you will have to wait for it to turn up as the post office wont be able to sort it out, when they access the dvla system it will tell them the car is already taxed so they wont issue a tax disc.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View PostI'm still waiting for my tax disc which was ordered and paid for in december and the reminder for the tax disc for my other car that was sent out over a month ago.
