Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
A country road upon which the bodies of repatriated soldiers begin their final journey could be renamed Highway of Heroes if a petition succeeds.
Hundreds of people regularly line the streets of Wootton Bassett, Wiltshire, to honour the soldiers brought to the town along the A3102 from RAF Lyneham.
The petition on the 10 Downing Street website, set up by ex-Para George Ryan who wants to re-christen the route, has more than 750 names.
The soldiers who fell in Iraq and Afghanistan are taken along the three-mile road into the town where residents, shopkeepers and members of the British Legion pay their respects.
The petition proposes to "rename the stretch of road (A3102) between RAF Lyneham and Wootton Bassett Highway of Heroes to honour all those of our military who have given their lives in the service of their country".
The idea originates from Canada, after a road between an Ontario air base and Toronto received the same title last year..
i dont get this country. we seem to be one of the few countries that dont really seem bothered about respecting our military, or honouring anything they have done.
It's about time it changed. If our government deem it necessary to send them in the first place, then they should bloody well deem it necessary to look after them when they come home ( alive or not ).
Sorry about the lecture folks, but this is a subject close to my heart, cus my Dad ( god bless him ) and his four brothers all fought in ww2, and apart from medals, got stuff all else for the honour.
Please note that although my advice is offered, you should consult your legal representative before taking ANY action.

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.
Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.

Sorry, but I can't sign. It's not that I think the military do not deserve such a thing, merely that it sounds so, well, American and superficial.
We already have a central memorial to which we pay tribute to those who have died - the war memorial in London. We also have many such memorials around the country.
I think it would be far more fitting to ensure the covenant between the military and government is respected - namely by the government. Military training is being sold of to private consortiums at huge cost and detriment to the military - effectively privatisation in the name of "bringing jobs" to south wales (which it wont) and of cost effectiveness (which it isn't - the cost of the deal has been far exceeded before anything has even been signed).
More decisive decisions and petitions need to be made than the renaming of a road in my view.
