You must have wanted to film them and then dob them in. I know I would.I know plenty here who have never worked. I’ve got neighbours, a brother and sister in a four bedroom council house. In their sixties now, she’s never worked and he had to stop work 20 years ago cos he ‘hurt his neck’
They have horses and since his ‘injury’ I’ve watched him filling eight 20 litre containers with water several times a week and carrying them round from the back of the house to the car to take to the horses field. Every now and then she appears out with a white stick and dark glasses for her ‘blindness assessment’ then she goes back about her day as usual.
It gives me a warm glow inside knowing I help to pay for their lifestyle
Alter the date on your camera to one when you will be away, then do it and send it in at the appropriate time so they can't know for sure that it is you and film it from a position that isn't from your land or anywhere near.
This sort of thing makes me furious. It is also a crime.

I'll give that a try after - at the moment it is 'feeding time at the zoo'.

Farmers claiming benefits are being told their businesses are “hobbies” and that they should seek paid employment.
The older benefit system calculated on a yearly average is being replaced by Universal Credit, under which households are assessed on their monthly income.
But farmers say their income varies wildly over a year because of agricultural seasons, meaning the system does not work for them.
When monthly income works out as effectively lower than the minimum wage, the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) can require claimants to look for alternative paid employment.

They voted for change. Its no different to me being laid oft for 2 months wivvoot pay. Yer dun't automatically claim. You apply to claim. Said claim would be job seekers. In reality farmers have a lot of kit to do other jobs like cutting back hedges. They can do that during quiet times.Farmers claiming benefits are being told their businesses are “hobbies” and that they should seek paid employment.

Spent quite a while this arvo sruggling to get the second Kenwood head unit out. Some of you may remember that I had one which was OK except it stopped playing tapes.
Used two thin kitchen knives.
This second one would work fine, playing everything including the CDs. then it'd stop, then later start again etc. Totally Naff. Me not being an electromagician I think it might be a "dry joint".
So I took it out and fished out my old LR one originally from my D1. It used to work very well with a CD player until that player went fubar.
It works fine and plays tapes which means I can use it with my gizmo that plays from an MP3 player or W's ipad. so we can listen to her "stories". Don't play the discs though.
Kenwood should stick to making mixers.
