Census 2011

[caro]

Lockheed means brakes and clutches to me, lol. They were a major employer where I live but it's gone now.

[babybear39]

Didn't they used to make very big aircraft for the RAF:???:

[Mr lex]

Yes BB, indeed they made my all time favorite airplane.

 

The ''Lighting'' !!

 

The aircraft side was taken over by BAC if I remember rightly.

[babybear39]

I was thinking of the Hercules Mr L ( Saw them flying lots of times at RAF St Athan).

[Consumer dude]

When's the deadline ?

[**Tilly**]

When's the deadline ?

 

6th April and if your really lucky you may get a visit from a census collector :shock:if you not filled it in.

[babybear39]

...And a grand fine:( Done mine online last week though

[sillygirl1]

Did mine last Sunday online, very easy and at least I know it is done and received - post round here is a bit iffy....

[iconoclash]

Oh - havent opened it yet - been so busy trying to keep an address to live at! (almost more guests than members - is that a record)

[Castlebest]

I had to ask for a form... seems because I live on a boat they ignore me but I dont know why... when I logged onto the census site all of the boats here were listed so why not sent the forms out?

[Consumer dude]

Is the fine like a fixed penalty of can you request a court hearing ? lol..

[phoenix11]

Has anyone had a knock yet?

 

I've just had a really unpleasant experience from a large goon who was not only threatening, he demanded to know iif there was a reason I had not completed my census form .................... I have!!!!

 

 

And why haven't they got it!!! How would I know????

 

He then left! Didn't get asked to fill in another one or anything, so have no idea what happens now!!

 

 

So I'll phone them to complain tomorrow because it was so bad, and I live on my own and had taken some strong pain killers earlier so wasn't too with it either! Really shouldn't have answered the door, but 'someone' kept knocking and knocking........................

 

I feel mightily aggrieved!!!

 

[Mr lex]

I haven't filled mine in yet.

 

Patiently awaits a knock........... we like big 'Goons' at the door (taps fingers)

That's it - they're picking on me 'cos I'm an ol dearie wot can be easily intimidated ............................ or so they thought!!!

 

 

I wasn't that bothered before - didn't like the stupid thing and it was a ridiculous waste of money and utterly pointless questions, but still filled it all in even tho I was tempted to add some very pithy comments (and yes, that is PITHY without a lithp) because it was such an appallingly thought out census.

 

Well now me caged is rattled and I feel like a big bite on some roast leg of consenus man!! I hope wads and wads of the forms go missing and the whole thing is shown up for the waste of money and shambles it is!!

 

 

 

8-) I feel a bit better for that now, thankyou.

[Mr lex]

LoL phoenix

 

If they do turn up, I have a few questions of my own :- (Going back to my roots)

 

Do I have to return to the town of my birth.

If there is only one of you, where are the other two 'Kings'

I haven't seen any bright stars other than on CAG

And WTF is 'Myrrh' anyway ???

 

Lex

[**Tilly**]

Not filled mine in yet either..will just set damian onto them:madgrin:

[phoenix11]

 

 

Sadly I didn't have either aplanned greeting for them or a residential 'rottie' as I wasn't expecting anyone!

 

Well, if they come back, maybe I'll just have to have a convenient bottle of Chianti in me hand!!

[babybear39]

And a spoon...Look at him and drool mumbling "I'd love my chianti with your liver" and wave the spoon at him

[Mr lex]

They must be reading this thread !!

 

Two of my three kings turned up not 10 Min's ago. One long haired greasy looking guy who looked like he had just fallen off his motor bike, and a woman who looked like a bikers moll The guy said he was the 'coordinator' to check on the behavior of the visitors !!

 

Well, I went though the list I posted on the 1st page, I don't think they knew the story behind the census and Christmas.

Anyway, they went away and then turned up at the back door two minutes later having got lost. There is only five houses here for heavens sake.

 

I can see why people could be intimated by these callers at 8 o'clock in the evening.

(amused)

[watchinginvestigation2011]

Suprised they are not trying to flog mobiles as well, we seem inundated with 3, talk talk etc...at the moment, census peeps would be a pleasant change xxhaha

[phoenix11]

Or perhaps ...........................

 

"I see you're back. Did you bring the ffffavvvva beans this time?"

[phoenix11]

As this subject is so busy, it reminds me of a song by XTC. Can you guess the title?

Across a crowded room

I first set eyes on you

My vision was impaired

Obstructed out of view

 

By those - faces in a crowded room

them - bodies in a crowded room

their - breathing in a crowded room

and their - pushing me out

down the fire escape

 

In the crowded room I won't touch too much

I felt the punch of a punch

The language was enough

To send me running [etc.]

 

[stuggling]

ok this is the only place i thought i could ask this, i filled in the form online, but have a this ruddy bloke knock on my door at the most inconvenient times ever eg just goin to get kids from school or doin tea for them, app this form is for the community me and partner have told him on several occasions to come back during day when im hope and able to do it.
