    Default You couldn't make it up.

    The BBC has been constantly in the limelight this year for a whole host of various things.
    The most controversial was the decision to abandon the free licence for over 75 year old.
    BBC has now hit back by publishing a report which states instead of £157p. we should paying over £400pa.
    If ever an organisation wa out of touch with reality its the BBC.

    Perhaps not considering the ever increasing mortality rate, or the thought of all that Burgoo.

    Let them put us in gaol. we can watch TV for FREE IN GAOL
    Plus, three meals a day, no heating bills, laundry done,
    better than in lockdown at home.

    I still havent paid, after numerous letters
    Just seeing how far they will go

    Some prisons even allow conjugal visits. I wonder if that might include the LGBT element. The mind boggles! (Mind you, anything's better than being the favourite of Big George over on e wing)

    We have one prison here on Vancouver Island that has a 9 hole golf course.
    No green fees.
    You could come out and become a pro golfer.
    Guess that would depend on how long you were in for.

    From what we have seen here in Oz of some BBC programs I think they should be paying you to watch them
    Happy daze John in Oz.
