Njord Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I'm guessing a lack of a permanent address? Partly. You need a fucking postcode to begin the claim, and then a phone number. My phones microphone has been goosed for months but I only use it for internet tethering and texting. Once that's all done, the nearest dole office is miles away. It's like someone in Dundee having to sign on in Edinburgh , and I really don't want to take the car anywhere near the city No wage since end of July/ start of august but funds getting low. Sigh........ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh........ Don't quote me on this, but I think they cover your expenses to get to the office, that's if they require to do given the distance involved. For example, I've got a mate in Durness who signs on over the winter and never needs to go Inverness. As for the phone mic, come on, how much is a new el cheapo phone really going to cost you?! They might be satisfied enough with a phone interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njord Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I'd heard of the expenses , but that isn't the bother hc. I'd need to get someone to look after the pooch whilst I was away (full day out on the bus). Cheapo phone is dilema stuff. I'd need a 3g one as three sim needs one, or an unlocked one for my Vodafone sim (have dual sim phone). 'If' spunking £50 on a cheap 3g one, I'd be better off waiting to get the one I want, Jiayu s3 @ £120 ish. Plus selection of phones is 'limited'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) I actually meant a landline, which they'd probably need anyway to prove you weren't on a mobile, potentially phoning from Bondi Beach (or Nigeria as they're more realistically concerned with). Have you considered carrier pigeon? Edited November 28, 2015 by Hedgecutter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh........ My friend lived up Brora and when he was on the dole he just had to phone them. Best way to deal with the dole is get a job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered carrier pigeon? If the snow keeps up I could send the dug I suppose. MUSH! Landline, lol. It also throws the council list for housing into the ring if I do sign on, which I am totally unsure that I want to do. Bizarre but true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I'm just over 30, and I'm definitely a beast, so I certainly qualify. My favourite type of melts are those circular caramel wafers that you sit atop a hot coffee and they go gooey. They're ace. PM me your details and i will add you as a friend and maybe we can play scrabble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 That boy Eugene reeks of small town mentality he just looks like your average student w****r you'd expect to find in the West end of Glasgow although that's probably a bit harsh on them as they'll no doubt moved on from that played out hipster look over a year ago. They're literally all wearing Palace gear now, m8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njord Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Pretty sure Wunfy's in a private bin. I'm guessing his mortgage outgoing a must be close to 10p a month. Actually, how much is council tax these days? 2007 last time I was due it so way out the loop . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Jagfox tracked someone down from off here that he doesn't know, then tried to add them as a friend as if that's a completely normal thing to do? What a complete and utter loser. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Walked past the frankly surreal sight of a fully costumed Popeye shouting and screaming at the ATM opposite Sainsburys at Queen Street station this morning because it was taking its time dispensing cash. Gotta love Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 There was a boy in my work the other day with a skateboard that had one of those Palace stickers on the underside of it. Wouldn't have thought there was much style overlap between skaters and Palace buyers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
