I had the Oculus Quest 2 for years and then upgraded to the Meta Quest 3 about a year ago when it first came out. I’d never in my life had anything to do with gaming with the exception of a spell playing Atic Atak on the Spectrum 48k+ in the mid 80s. I love my VR and use it probably every...

Was re-reading Build a Bonfire last month as finally my books are now more accessible in the house, and watching Stand or Fall has made me move on quickly to We Want Falmer! They're such great evocative reads.

Nope. It’s a weird one. I have another catch up with HR this week as HMRC are saying nothing should have changed

Had literally exactly the same pay to the penny since April, until last month

For the first time in 6 months, my contribution went down

That was my first thought, but no chance there either.

Unlikely - we didn't even know we'd been TUPEd til the day it happened! Absolute shambles!

My NI, Tax and Pension payments had been exactly the same for the past 6 months, but then in October then all fluctuated. NI and Tax contribution slightly up Pension contribution slightly down

I wish!

Yep

Yeah this is what i'm thinking... that said I'm 49 years old and have been employed since i was 15, and am yet to know a properly functioning HR.

I'm technically in the same job, but have been TUPEd with the exact same conditions and contract.

Yep.. NI and Tax rose ... but no one can tell me why.

Did anyone else suffer a small net pay drop in October? My employers are saying they've changed nothing, so I called HMRC and they claim nothing has changed... yet I'm £35 out of pocket. I know it's not much, but it's still £400 a year. Google says employers might be passing on NI contribution...

I think you also got 15 minutes extra on blank Betamax tapes 😂

I mentioned earlier that I loved it, but if there's hundreds of hours of interviews etc., it would be great if when it goes to whichever network platform it's being streamed on, they showed perhaps an extended version / director's cut over a few episodes. I guess there's no scope or desire these...

Just got back from the 20:00 screening. Excellent, and can’t wait to see it again. And in part selfishly because I got to see myself with a decent amount of hair again on the Goldstone pitch. 😂

Last few hours for this beauty #chewits Link: 1991-93 away

Born in Brighton at the RSCH. MY parents lived in Orange Row at the time, and we moved to Portslade when I was still a baby. In fact, I’ve never lived any more than 8 miles away from the centre of Brighton 😂 Neither parent was into football but both my grandfathers were. One was a Spurs fan...

Last bounce for this one
