I've seen quite a few on youtube. seems the norm now since we found out that the BBC were employing pedo's that those who film them when they come round are scared that they're pedo's too.

just search TV licence goons or whatever on youtube.

I actually had an old lady refuse to consider moving from BG as "they make nice gas and electricity, and I don't want rubbish stuff".

I've just had the garden landscaped and I don't want them digging it up to put their pipes and wires in.Other wise I would switch. :D

I'd love it if they were ALL only allowed to change prices on one specific date... a lot of squeaky bums in boardrooms as they try to set their prices so as not to be the most expensive and therefore lose customers en masse.

"Taking it in turns" to announce price changes sets the goalposts for their rivals to beat or equal.

And surely, if there was only one no-profit "body" that bought gas/electricity wholesale for the UK market, it would have more clout in keeping wholesale prices down?

Ha ha I didn't know that was on You Tube. Seems like many people are in the same mind as me when it comes to TV licences. :D

Haven't had the heating on this year yet because I find a dressing gown keeps me warm and with these price rises going up might have to invest in a onesie or a thick wearable blanket.

It's silly, Most of my gas bills are the standing charges these days!

You can see that now, we won't have to look back.

True.

what gets on my nerves is how we have to keep asking what Dave suggests we do. as if we're all stupid and walking around trying to be cool like Dave in just our rolled up sleeves shirt. we need to be told to wear a jumper.

I'd like to buy a jumper. Dave suggests I wear a jumper.

how does he know we're not wearing a bloody jumper already?

You just couldn't make it up could you? Mind you did we expect anything else from a private educated Toff?
