Thread started to discuss all things pension related as it was being discussed in inappropriate threads. For me, the State Pension is totally inadequate acknowledging that we are living longer and it is paid from current tax grabs @Mods please transfer discussions from current Labour thread

Apologies if a thread already exists on this. Haven’t needed treatment for some time but had a filling this afternoon and was charged £200 which caught me by surprise. Is this consistent with your local dentist?

Just listening to sounds of the 60s on the radio and heard a couple of words not heards for donkeys years and, probably no longer used. Any others you recollect? Groovy Fab

Apologies if a thread already exists, but couldn't see one These clowns do my head in and it won't be long before one of them gets a good kicking. Does anyone actually support their methods of protest?

Want to put a utube music video onto CD but it is too long. Is there a way of cropping the video to say 75 mins so as to get it on a disc? For free obs

Sorry if already discussed elaswhere (did search, but couldn't find anything). After eagelry awaiting her 10.1% state pension increase, Mrs MSB got just 8%, even though she is way below the threshold to pay any tax Has anyone else noticed similar?

Never owned one before and looking to buy a 2nd hand earlier generation ( 1st, 2nd or 3rd), but Mrs wants Facebook on it :). Reading the ads for them, they seem to point towards the App store not having FB, and the IOS doesn't facilitate having it ( don't know what that means). Is there a way...

No doubt we all have our own favourites, but if asked to pick your best three, what would they be. For me: Money for Nothing - Dire Straits I can't get no Satisfaction - Stones Pinball Wzzard - The Who

Had the misfortune of a burst outside pipe supplying a garden tap last night. Turned out to be a plastic 90degree push fit connector ( although didn't know at the time it was that) A piss easy job to replace for even a novice if abled bodied. Forced to call out a plumber who was here all of...

With CPI currently sat at around 8%, am I right in thinking state and other Government pensions are set for the same increase (assuming CPI remains the same in Sept)?

Waited in all morning for an engineer to rock up to install FTTP. Appointment was confirmed by Talktalk and two days later by Openreach (today 0800-1300) No one turned up, no message to say running late, nothing. There is no way of speaking to Openreach direct to ask for an explanation/update...

The thing I constantly strive to avoid happened to me yesterday. A long story, but I ended up pushed to the garage floor with my electric wheelchair locked in fwd drive, trying to ride over my legs. Took 15 mins before wife found me, but with my disability, there is no way I could get up off...

Mrs MSB and me are seriously thinking of selling up and moving to France for our twilight years. Anyone done this and how has it panned out. One selfish ( Mrs thinks so anyway), is how is watching our games out there? Is there good coverage, or better still, good internet, particularly...

The courts decision to aquit sets an unhealthy precedent. The charge was criminal damage and they were bang to rights. Seen vandalising on tv, admitted to playing a part, yet got off claiming they were protesting against racism. This now gives protestors an open door to break the law. No...
