Sot. That is so funny, I like it., lucky you put this, was going to send a black & white photocopy of last years licence, all I seem to see on the T.V. these days are black & white films, anything else is a repeat, so why not send repeat of last years licence or only pay the black & white fee.

Some of the repeats are better than current programes. Maybe we should pay the licence at the 1976 rate.

Can you still buy a T.V. for Black & White only, would think not, why not just make it simple & have one fee or even better scrap it all together.

Just chanced upon this in the Guardian about the late Demis Roussos ( not a fan btw )

''Among his fellow performers were the keyboards player Evangelos Papathanassiou (aka Vangelis) and the drummer Loukas Sideras, with whom he formed Aphrodite’s Child in 1967.

The trio decided that they needed to get closer to the centre of the international music industry and set off for London. Unfortunately, they were turned back at Dover due to visa problems.'' :shock:



ah, borders, them were the days... :lol:
