    Damn the census form - I keep forgetting we have to do that, and I keep remembering the envelope saying on it "it is a legal requirement to fill this out" or similar words. Must get that form filled out!

    "No Religion" is the option to pick. The sooner they realise a lot of people aren't religious & remove power from the churches the better.

    The wife filled out ours. Apparently I now do 'generalised witchcraft and wizardry' for my work.

    I thought the idea was to do it on the 21st?

    You can fill it in in advance, it's unlikely that your household is going to change in the next week. I suppose one of us could die?

    I'm not not doing our census until the right day, because I'm a good boy.


    Correction: Don't go believing that, it's because I'm too lazy to do it until I have to.

    The fact that I live in Cumbria and the doctor decided a while back that I need to see a neurosurgeon and the closest one is in Newcastle so on Wednesday I have a 7 HOUR round trip for a 15 minute appointment.

    Wow, Cumbria is well represented on here ! On the plus side, Newcastle does seem to get some top quality hospital peeps.

    Waiting to buy a new toy on a other forum, but the bloke hasn't been on for a week, at this rate I'll talk myself out of it by the time he pops his head over the parapet.

    Reminds me of my recent application form for a promotion, wanted to know who my current employer was, form clearly states "internal application form" so I struggled a bit there.

    Maybe they're trying to catch surprisingly honest moonlighters out?

    Thought for a minute I'd not received the Census form/link, but turns out the Scottish one is not until next year - been postponed a year.
