wife & I are both students so we don't pay any council tax at all! Nothing. Nada. Not a bean.
I was going to suggest that you were a complete sponger, but then I remembered that you are an ex-pat in Wales.
You still have tuition fees there don't you

Nope, government (well really tax payers) pays mine & Wife's are reduced (few hundred ££s) as Wales has not brought in these full crazy top up charges (yet). Worth getting wife out to Uni as only get 25% reduction on council tax with just me as a student.
Don't be too ed, I've paid my share of taxes in the past & still paying now.

That's it JMC, "treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen"! Nothing worse than hunting for something that is not there. Bit like the end of the film "The Conversation".

Doesn't mean he'll get my vote. Besides it's not his money anyway.

Going a bit ...unusual for me
Anyway the instigator of this report is Autoglass....believe it or not ...have a look here (if you can see of course)
I'm going to write thanking them for allowing their results to focus upon 4x4's. What they don't tell you is of the 21,000 accidents where drivers state they didn't see the object they hit, what proportion was acredited to 4x4's, what proportion of drivers had visual impairments and what proportion were attribitable to the so called A frame.
One of the funny things is that some of their own pictures show the blind spot from the position of the passenger out through the drivers side
I however use the magic of vision 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
