Useful information Celeste,
I received a letter a couple of weeks ago advising me that I may qualify and inviting me to apply, unfortunately though I spent 50 years working and paying tax and because I receive a small pension from one of my periods of employment there's nowt down for me, like thousands of others.
I take comfort from the fact that all the lazy barstewards that have never and will never go to work and contribute will be looked after.
