    I see why you say that but they own two shops and a load of houses and flats. Better to be sharp where it counts.

    They do work 15 hour days 365 days a year which I suppose takes the shine off it a bit.

    And yet they struggle with the census, which literally took me three minutes to enter the details for both of us here. Weird.

    Thousand quid fine if you get it wrong.

    It's how they're going to pay for Covid. That and speeding fines.

    Not if you get it wrong. If you deliberately mislead or refuse.
    Our older population can't guarantee to remember everything correctly. And if the govt knows the right answer, then why ask in first place?

    I'm sorry what was the question?

    The govt doesn't know the right answer to anything, so we should be safe

    I see the new 'MacGyver' series starts on Pick tv channel tonight. I don't get it, why revamp a tv series that was rubbish first time around? Mind you, it can't be any worse than Scorpion.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Yeah but it's got my very favourite lady on TV, Tristin Mays (Riley) Almost worth watching just for her. Almost.

    It was one of those weird shows that was rubbish but got loads of viewers. A bit like 'Birds Of A Feather.'

    Then you've got your shows that were so rubbish they were good. Like 'Knight Rider' or 'Battlestar Galactica.' (The original not the reboot. The reeboot was rubbish but not rubbish enough to be good so it sort of missed both targets).
