Our postman at work said everyone seems up for an all out strike. At the moment the striking is not affecting our area but I'm dead sure it will at sometime soon.

I would assume that there must be some allowance for additional time if you can prove that the papers were delayed due to the strike although with our laws probably not. It is also possible that they would hold up their post until it was over.

Way back when, don't remember the year, I was late making a payment by cheque. This was noted on my credit file, and even though I could prove date of posting (mail room franking machine) it stayed on my report for 6 years. I put on a 'note' but did not seem to be taken into account.

Well it does prove the point that this country has been in a real state for years and is only getting worse instead of better. I think it would be a far better place if we caggers got together and threw out all the MPs and ran the country ourselves - wouldn't we have a great time, freebies all round such as holidays and pay and everything else they've been ripping us off with. The greatest bit would be that we could get rid of all the DCAs legally, get rid of bank charges and the ridiculous interest rates we have. We might have a bit of a struggle over which one should be charge as there are a lot of great minds around.
