Registering an Ex mil vehicle to get a number plate.

Raining today so thought I'd look at the first tax paperwork the dvla sent a while back.
Got all the forms but their phone lines are down till further notice and there's a note on the website don't send any paperwork to them either.
Guess that means I'm stuffed then until further notice.
Anybody else come across this?

I suspect that they have been offered full pay to sit at home as they are all Civil Servants.

The thought had occured to me, its all phone and terminal based so whats the problem.

Probably can't agree the expences rate for work use of home phone and PC. There will be a TU / Management working group meeting weekly to discuss it. I spent 22 years in the Civil Service. They spent 6 months calculating the resources cost of an e-mail before deciding whether to allow staff to send and receive e-mails to personal addreses, this was because e-mail was seen to be like using a Goverment stamp and envelope to post a personal letter, a dismissable offence. They decided it was 0.01p per e-mail and we were "allowed" to send and receive e-mails at work. They completely missed the £millions wasted since them by bored staff reading personal e-mails all day but that didn't matter, the intergirty of the expenses code remained intact.
