Yeh, tax on push bikes. I'd like to see them try to enforce that! It could work out bloody expensive for me, I think I had 17 at the last count.

Steve if they can make money out of us they'll try anyway poss. We had a letter the other day from family/working tax asking for £430 back as they have overpaid As if

[stevew]

Yep that really takes the p**s!
I had that a few years ago. They sent me a letter:
'Due to our own incompitance we seem to have given you too much money so now we are going to tax it all back from you. Sorry if this had screwed your finances but there you go.'
Or words to that effect.

Yep fuel prices are now really taking the pee, but the trouble is what can we do about it, nothing at all In the past when it has been proposed for everyone to stop using there vehicals for a day etc..it is so hard to be able to do that as life still goes on, its ok for a self employed lorry driver to do that but most people would get the sack if they tried that or just didnt turn up for work.

On the tax credit thing, someone i know at my kids school got a letter last year saying they were over paid and was asked to pay back just over a £1000 BANG OUT OF ORDER

In my eyes the govt sucks in both of these cases

[100ps_drw_hicube]

but if all the companies sacked everyone where would we be the govt would have to do something about it

a pal of mine has just been asked politly to repay £1000

I know mate , but would the govt really do something or would the big petrol companies just sack them and employ a load of Polish drivers for cheap labour ??? so we have to yet again just put up with the price of fuel

a pal of mine has just been asked politly to repay £1000

If it happens to me they can have it back at a £1.00 a week

[MWOOLY10]

Although not the best way but.. A mate of mine buys fuel on the cheap in big drums delivered to his house..I think he gets it off some dodgy geezer thats knows someone else that uses bent fuel cards .. Think he pays half price or something like

Now if i only had somewhere for a large petrol tank

Prices are a joke .. I started this job 4 years ago,When i bought my first van i went and filled it up at about 50 odd pence..now look at it
