th1stleandr0se Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 back in 4th year i missed the skin test so didn't get my BCG and the next year they scrapped them. bullywee - no BCG You'll get BCG then, whatever it is, because you're not inoculated against it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forehead7 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I don't have a car or anything so this might be a really obvious answers, but when someone sticks about £20 worth of petrol in their car how many litres is that?(roughly) I ask because I noticed my Tesco receipt had 5p off every litre of petrol and it seemed like a small saving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Probably @ 15 litres depending on where you live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Pete Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Should unpaid internships be stopped? This came up in conversation between me and some mates yesterday and it set me thinking. Yes, its exploitative, but at the same time, people take up these positions willingly, because they see the experience and networking opportunities as worth the effort. Obviously theyd prefer to be paid, but if they're happy enough to do work unpaid, why should they have to be? Does anyone else have an opinion on these? I think P&B might be turning me into a market liberal. Thanks a bunch, Ad Lib, Swampy and H_B edit: although it doesnt help that the only 'socialist' worth reading on here is renton and he's not posting much atm. If you think you're possibly bored of socialism then read any post by "uni" and his inane, childish ramblings should ensure that you're put off completely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) Yes, they discrimnate against those from lower income backgrounds. Full-time ones do, absolutely. Part-time ones, do they? I started in my current job as a volunteer doing seven hours a week, while also working full-time. edit: also TBR I recovered from libertarianism over a year ago...

I started in my current job as a volunteer doing seven hours a week, while also working full-time. Mmm, you;d need to take it on a case by case basis I suspect, but this is a fair point. When i think "internship" i think of the Americanised "6 week placement" type of thing, rather than someone volunteering a day. edit: also TBR I recovered from libertarianism over a year ago... I favour mixed-market solutions in line with European orthodoxy can you expand or define that at all? In what way? Sorry just curious. As Swampy points out, Young Graduate doing an unpaid full time intership at, for example, a PR firm is going t have to find an income stream outwith of the 35 hour work week the full time internship demands. Now they could keep up their weekend jobs, and work 7 day weeks but it's far from ideal. I don't want this to descned to "rich wans" and the "Bank of Mummy and Daddy", but it will be easier for young people who have financial support to do unpaid internships, which tend to be in fairly elite indutries and organisations which under-represent peoplefrom low income backgrounds in the first place 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Dufresne Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 How much are private number plates? Depends on what you want,My wife got mines for my birthday from the DVLA website and it was £255. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckles Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) When you remove a private number plate from a car does the original number go back on the car by the dvla? When the private plate is removed, the car must be re registered with the DVLA using the original number.

Spain Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) When the private plate is removed, the car must be re registered with the DVLA using the original number. Incorrect. The original number goes back to the DVLA when you put a private plate on it. When you remove the private plate the DVLA will issue you with the original number plate if it is still available (which it almost always is). If it isn't they will issue you with a random one of the relevant age. Edit: Just to point out, this system is just to ensure that they don't run out of number plates in extreme situations. Most likely you will get the original registration back. Edited November 13, 2011 by Spain 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely you will get the original registration back. You will certainly have the original registration number returned as this is never allotted to any other vehicle. The time to have this done should not exceed 14 days, and can be done much quicker if you visit the relevant DVLA office.
