Congratulations to everyone who completed and supported the marathon on Sunday. I can't imagine what it would be like to have to run another 568 metres at the end of a marathon. I suppose not knowing helped! It will be interesting to see if a retrospective licence is issued. I thought there...

Mrs Ted and I have spent a couple of periods abroad. A few important things that I would have been better off knowing before we went . . . Understanding the tax implications relevant to your situation and the need to establish non-resident tax status - living and working abroad doesn’t mean...

I've had many problems in this area, always on my left side with pain around the hip, glute and lower back. I'm not sure if it's been due to Dead Butt Syndrome, as Dr Google has come up with various explanations over the years. It's generally been worse after a hard session, particularly when...

Thanks, big nuts and Gary Nelson's teacher, for the help with parkrun. I'll take your advice and go for Seaford.

I'd be grateful for some local parkrun advice. I'll be staying at Kingston, near Lewes, soon and plan to do a parkrun. Priorities (in order) are: not too congested (given current covid situation); ease of parking; surface (the firmer the better); distance from Kingston. Peacehaven and...

As many have said, this is a pretty smart scam. Given the ingenuity applied, it’s quite understandable that your son was taken in by it. With the perseverance encouraged by others, I am certain the bank will have to back down. And beware of a ‘gesture’! Once someone sensible in the bank...

So what info about the incoming call was displayed on his mobile? "Private number", or an actual number that he did, or did not, recognise? And, apart from quoting his account number, did the crook provide him with any other info that would have given the 'I'm from the bank' claim credibility...

Harry Wilson's tackle Why did your son think the original call came from his bank? Had the crooks spoofed the bank's caller id?

Many years ago I had to hire a car because mine had broken down. I was already late and became increasingly annoyed with the amount of paperwork involved before I was given the keys. But the guy was a nice chap, just doing his job, so I kept my frustration to myself. Finally, he took me to...

I've bought and moved kit around (Europe, Mid East, SE Asia, Aus, NZ) a lot over the last ten years and not had any problems other than with printers, which are often 'regionalised'. I bought an HP printer in NZ and it will only accept cartridges purchased in Australasia. Warranties can be...
