clo_againAh, waking up to a nasty "Renew your TV licence or burn in hell!! Forever!!! In a special Pit of Other-No-Licence-Holder Scum!!!!" letter. Always a fun way to wake up on Sunday.
I am a little curious as to what they'd have done if it wasn't me in the room anymore, since a lot of people moved off-campus since last year. Probably fined some random stranger for daring to live in a room where the TV licence expired, they're that kind of malicious.
Dammit it's *Christmas*. I don't have the money to be paying their ridiculously overpriced and outdated licence prices and now I'm going to have to. -_- Bastards. Maybe I should join that Anti-Licence campaign, go wave signs outside Parliment and stuff, throw eggs at Tony Blair. If nothing else, it'd be quite fun.
Stupid country. Stupid BBC for being ad-free. Stupid me for buying a licence at *all* last year and giving them an excuse to send me nasty renewal letters. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
edit: There is no sodding number on my licence from last year!! NONE. If you aren't going to tell me where said number is *supposed* to be, then how am I supposed to find it? Oh right I forgot, you don't care because you're stupid.
Oh god I am writing a nasty letter to the licencing company. They are pissing me off beyond belief.
edit: Gggrr. Emailed them to ask where the hell this number is supposed to be and was informed they'll try to get back to me within two working days. Joy. Happiness. If they so much as *think* of fining me in the next two days, I will march right up to Tony Blair myself and pelt him with eggs until he admits the whole system is dumb.
SO. :) How has everyone elses' mornings gone?
