Should have told the police the rabbits jumped me, beat me up, vandalised a tree and a lamp-post and did a runner with the car !

In ref to KSH, the PO do know that cars are already taxed. When we bought one of Julies teh seller had sent the tax disk back and when I went to tax it it must not have been processed as the lady on the counter said "Its already taxed".

I have never understood why they can't offer a monthly purchase scheme where you pay direct debit each month and when the reminder comes out it says its already paid and you just need to show your docs to get the disk. I think there are a lot of people who can afford ~£10-15/month but finding £200 in one lump sum is hard.

Even better IMHO is stick it on fuel, gas guzzling/high mileage drivers pay more, no-one can avoid it, no need to pay for all teh admin involved in collection/chasing non payers etc. Problem is no Gov will ever have the balls to do it.

They used to sell savings up stamps with a little card to stick them on so you could effectively pay monthly but you had to keep it yourself. Of course you could always just keep £15 or so aside each month but it's easier not to spend it if it's a stamp stuck on a card. Do they still do that?

I can afford not to be bothered about it though. Dont think they do saving stamps as ive never heard about it. a direct debit for some would be much better. id do it that way.
