I went through the Blackwall Tunnel in November, for the first time since they started charging for it. Went on the TFL website to pay and got an error message when I tried to sign up for Auto Pay. Continued to get an error message every time I tried for the next two days. Finally rang a number and was told that I was too late to pay the £4 charge and they had now sent me a PCN for £180!!!!!!!!!! London Mayor and his cronies are taking the piss. I challenged the PCN and got a 5 page explanation letter back (twice) from Donna Milton telling me why TFL were rejecting my appeal. I wrote back to Ms Milton and said that I must not have explained well enough that their website was at fault. They then sent me a 6 page letter saying that they were still rejecting my appeal and that I should pay up £180. So on 17 Jan I sent an appeal to London Tribunals Adjudicators (with a video walk-thru of the TFL website f***ing up). They gave me a virtual court date of 13 Feb. On 31 Jan I got a letter saying that TFL will not contest that appeal and will pay any further costs. This is how they are wasting your congestion charges revenue. Clown show! Later I got a letter from the people who had previously sent me a total of eleven pages of reasons why they were rejecting my appeal. They wrote this gibberish "We have reviewed the issue of the PCN and the handling of your representation. As a result it has come to our attention that an administrative error occured in the processing of the representation... we have decided that the appeal can be non contested and the PCN can be cancelled and no further action taken. We apologise for any inconvenience..." |

That performance confirms my pre-tournament belief that Ireland will finish fourth this year, behind come permutation of Eng/Fra/Sco. |

Bill Hicks, even after all these years, still my favourite comedian. Such a tragic loss... |

It's got to be a baseless rumour. How stupid would the management at Oxford be to appoint someone with no experience as a manager, to save their side in the Championship? I wouldn't be surprised if they went for someone like Steven Schumacher. |

I think the likes of Louise Brooks, Jean Harlow, Jane Russell, Marylin Monroe, might disagree (if they were still with us), but I think Bardot was probably the most natural stunner. |
