Many years ago the stone quarry in Tetbury had it's telehandler pinched and was used to drag out a cashpoint. The police thought it was an inside job, the workers were amazed it got as far as town and definitely didn't want to see it back 😁

Your lucky l am on the old rate plus extras = £692-84
IIRC you're a good few years older than me though Bob :unsure: did you get your full 38 years in? if so it's pretty unfair

Yes done 50 years left school aged 14 in 1961 done 2 weeks work before my 15 birthday and paid stamps up until I was 65
you're 10 years older than me then ... pretty bloody unfair that Bob ..... :mad::mad:
TBH I haven't taken a great deal of notice of the 'pre-cut off' point, for the change in entitlements, as it didn't affect me, but that is a significant difference ...
your contributions may have been lower, but for much longer and we both have to live in today's markets/prices. :rolleyes::mad:
were you on class 1, or class 2 stamp?
IMHDO neither are at a realistic level .. in fact a long way short of what'd be considered necessary

to all the rest of you guys .. go on the gov website and make sure your contributions're on track/adequate to get you full entitlement ... can always top up missing time ... if you're a couple of weeks missing from a year, you will lose the entire year, for the sake of a few quid to top the year up ... MAKE SURE YOU'RE UP TO DATE
