Don't some companies use Jersey for the same or similar purposes. I'm sure I've read that both Amazon and Tesco do this.

Does anyone know of a school/college etc in the Hampshire area that would like the challenge of building and racing a pedal car for the British Pedal Car Grand Prix held in New Milton July 10 this year? Honeypot is the main charitable benefactor and would like a car racing in their colours. http://www.honeypot.co.uk/ If you, or anyone you know, can help in this way, please let me know and I'll pass on the information. Please don't hijack this thread. Thanks. Edit Many thanks to those of you who've already offered help / contacts xx

We spent a week near Portmadog in April last year. WE had a great time and went to Portmeirion on the sunniest day of the week. Lovely place and it was great, sitting in the warm sunshine, outside the Italian Cafe at the top of the village with a lovely meal and a glass of chilled white. Marvellous.

Hmm I remember it being called Bitterne Triangle in the 60s and I'd moved away by the 70s.

You could train up and walk down. At this time of the year, you probably won't see much from the summit anyway.

Two points really - firstly, many public sector employees are very poorly paid (I think the average is about £15K but some are paid as little as £12K) and many, particularly women, are part time. Secondly, the rules are changing anyway. New entrants won't get pensions based on years of service x final salary. It will be years of service x average salary over final (5?) years. Given that many are low paid and part time and don't have many years of service (women returning to work as an example), the pension won't be that large. I had 20 years' service and was a senior manager but my pension is only about £4K a year. Hardly gold-plated and I struggled to pay 6% of my salary into the scheme. So I think many of the lower paid workers will simply withdraw from the scheme and that will mean that the tax-payer will have to pick up the cost of pension credits etc in the same way as the tax payer does for private sector workers who don't / can't pay into a private scheme.

Haven't seen her live, but from what I've seen of her on TV I reckon she's likely to be very good live.

Well let me know in good time. I wouldn't want to trek to Aylesbury only to find you're at HH. Weather permitting of course

For the sake of accuracy - 'we' didn't. The Scots did.

It's what I'm told, not what I know first hand (ooeeerrr missus)

Whereas, with a chubby bloke, if it's cold, there are some things nestling in the nether regions it would be nigh on impossible to find. Oh Edit Or even when it's not cold!
