And it can get in the bin. I wont be renewing my licence when it expires provided the info i found to avoid it is correct

And what's that info? You can't watch any BBC programmes, even on catch up, without a license now. Can watch Netflix and Amazon prime without one, but not live tv or iplayer.

From what I read so far, I need to send a form in stating I don't require a licence, then just disconnect the Ariel cable and tape them up. I don't watch the BBC or live TV at all. But I'm still a little foggy on the details. I hear that even owning a screen or monitor requires a licence.

When people say 'drop' me an email or 'drop' me a text.

 

Drop it where? From a great height?

 

Stupid phrase that's crept it's way into our day to day language somehow...

The landlord of the Kings Head is from Cannock with the West Midland accent. The other week when City played West Brom he was standing outside and some WB fans went to come in. He said 'Surray lads Lesta fans onely' Brummie dialect)

They thought he was taking the micky. :)

Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others aren't allowed to.

But I can! And just to let you know, I'm very fluent in gibberish! 

 

Plus, i have a secret talent to teach a language in just few seconds and I'm ready to teach people here.

 

Are you ready? Ok!

 

Grab a word. Let's say "tradition"

Pronounce the "tion" as "si-on"

 

Congratulations, you can now speak French!

One of my housemates does this thing where he'll send a pic of some food he's found in the fridge and send it to the house WhatsApp convoy asking if it's anybody's because he 'thinks it might be his' then when someone replies 5 minutes later to confirm it's theirs he'll say 'oh sorry I already ate it I thought it was mine'. Sure you did. :rolleyes:

 

He doesn't do it with my food because he's a bit of a pussy who's somehow afraid of me I guess because I'm the only other dude in the house so basically he steals food from girls the wet blanket.
