What are you all up to

We got our council bill too this week, and it's up to £180 p m for 10 months, and we are on band C, so not a high as some are paying. Completed my census on line, easy peasy.

Is that for a 10 month payment or like Kjell's 12 months?

We are on a water meter, but that was by choice soon after I retired and we knew we would be away from home for up to 2/3rds of the year in our caravan. We weren't for course expecting to have to stay at home so much because of Covid!!😡

 I thought we had to wait until Sunday nellie? We will get ours done tomorrow or Thursday. Nothing complicated for us. It all looks very straightforward.

Out fairly early tomorrow, Nellie, for some serious food shopping, then a decent lunch to build me up for the afternoon doing Council Tax &  Census On-line paperwork, if that makes sense 

At the moment I have BBC News @ 10 on with some film / videos of the victims of the war in Syria. It makes our C19 worries very small beer indeed.

If you do the census "early" the information you enter will be as if your house occupancy will be the same as census day   ,we did ours the day it arrived in the post last week

Impressive.  You must be able to see into the future John.  

Same here, it did say you could contact them if anything changed.

Here in Devon we have the highest water bills in the country. Well someone has to pay to keep the beaches pristine for the holidaymakers! I can be quite mean with the water. Love being at the caravan where our water is not charged for and we are not using it here. I never pay the CT by DD always pay monthly on the credit card, where I get points. Over the years we have enlarged our house several times but we still only pay the original band of CT, but we won't shout about that.

I feel your pain, Francis... 🙂   I've even thought of paying someone to do it, but, apart from the money it would cost, I'm concerned that someone could use a high pressure jet....  I reckon ours will get done before Easter...

It's the area covered by SW Water and not just Devon, Debs. It's recognised by Govt that we have the highest charges in the country which is why we get a Govt subsidy of £50 p/a but, despite that, we still pay through the nose.☹
