A little explanation.

A little explanation.


For some time the entries in the "Twitter" updates box on my Webpages have been showing a mixture of all sorts!
This is due to a problem that "Twitter" are apparantly having, and none of the updates come from my Twitter account, unless you see "iwmpop" or "mrlemarquis" mentioned.
It's quite amusing to see (sometimes) what people use Twitter for!
I could remove the rubrique, but I'm leaving it on, for the time being.
Should it become TOO much (use of a language objectionable in too hefty a form or other similar things) then I will remove it.
(Don't try to click here-it's only a picture....!)

No doubt sometime or other Twitter will sort out the problem.
Until then - have a little look, and let me know if you understand any of it.....!

The sad story of "Silly Tilly"

This is the sad story of Silly Tilly of zemanta fame (and fortune...?),
Unfortunately, her programme doesn't work on Google Chrome, which is the only browser worth using!
As you can see on the right hand side, it says "loading preferences" and sticks there!
I already know my preferences (relatively normal) and having my PC freeze is not one of them!
Overtime will be required by "Silly Tilly" to fix this, whilst I am in the mountains eating choco-chip ice cream!
Happy Christmas and a Good New Year!

(mr le marquis)
PS - this article will be published so "Silly Tilly" can go and read it, at the adress given - and my preferences are still (not) loading!

Thank you for nothing at all -UK & Europe..!


Happy Christmas...!  I haven't been in UK for over 40 years, but now they're asking me to spend my money to go there - to save my money!
I can live, happily, without a passport, it's them who insist- and so - they can make their own prices!
Logical would be that the passport office, and ONLY the passport office were responsible - even by post to foreign (in particular European - EU) adresses. That's what Europe is about, but the UK ALWAYS has to be different! That's also what Democracy is about! Socialist or Conservative - it's all the same! When will we get a truly EUROPEAN passport?
Thanks for nothing at all!

Passportcosts - e-petition response

We received a petition asking:
“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to equalise the cost of renewing UK passports for UK citizens who live abroad.”
Details of Petition:
“The cost of renewing a basic passport in the UK is £72. In France we have to pay 164€ (£145.73) - that is over TWICE the cost. This is very unfair especially as all of us who are in receipt of a UK pension have seen our incomes reduced in value by nearly one-third over the past year owing to the drop in the value of Sterling. I ask the British Government to create a level playing field for all of its citizens regardless of where we live.”

Read the Government’s response

It has been the policy of successive Governments that the costs of consular services overseas, including issuing passports overseas, should be borne by the beneficiaries of the service, rather than being subsidised by the UK taxpayer.

Whilst the Identity and Passport Service (IPS) is responsible for issuing passports to British Nationals living in the UK (and issues approximately six million passports every year), the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) is responsible for providing a passport issuing service to British Nationals living abroad. 

Although the FCO runs an efficient operation, it issues fewer than 400,000 passports a year from about 100 locations and must recover the full costs through the passport fee. The fee is calculated on the basis of the cost of staff, accommodation and overheads involved, and the calculations are carefully scrutinised by the Treasury, approved by the Privy Council and laid before Parliament. It is the FCO’s intention to keep costs down to as low as possible and fees are reviewed on a regular basis.

British Nationals, residing overseas, can however now choose to apply to the IPS whilst visiting the UK. In order to do this they need to make their application in person, supply a UK address and be available at that address to receive the recorded delivery of the new passport.


December - A personal Account of 2009

December - A personal Account of 2009
Final part!

  Time passes, and we're already at the end of 2009...!

Don't you feel a lot older, wiser and wearier...Like me....?

By the nature of things, a bit of this account will have to be "divination" since we're not there yet, but if you think I'm going to wait until the last stroke of midnight on the 31st.....!

In any  case, the month of December is never very eventful - more a recuperation from the dead month of November! Sometimes exciting things happen, like waiting for a pension payment that never arrives, but this December was not of that type!
The only things of note that happened was the re-appearance of what the hospital doctor had called "a common hernia" in the stomach area!
It was disturbing, because it hurt, and because this time it was higher up - under the rib cage, but on the right hand side.
I had thought about cardiac problems again, but that's the other side - isn't it....?
Anyway - all they have to do is "unzip" me!
Might mean an unscheduled visit to the Doctor, but.....after the holidays'!
I suppose these things are sent to trie us, but I'm having a lot of trials recently!
December also brought, for once, some good news! 
After some 3 years of complaining, the water company finally decided I may have been right with my assertion that I couldn't possibly use 75 cube metres of water in 6 months - all by myself in a small flat! 
Instead of demanding the usual 80+ euros they demanded nothing and paid me 40 odd euros back! 
The wheels of the utilities grind small - and damned slowly...!
Only thing that I need to do now is to finally get the owner to replace the corridor windows, or at least put SOMETHING in the open space, so that the outside air of around 0-Centigrade doesn't have to be heated by me as well! 
I doubt that his own home is the same, his wife and kids wouldn't allow it!
How about reducing the rent until something's done? 
If I alert the Social Services (as they want me to) the ancestral home would probably be closed down - leaving me ...where?
Ah yes - ancestral homes - the problem for aristocrats since time immemorial!

Wonder where 2010 is going to lead to........?



So - there we are, it's the 21st December 2009!

This personal account of 2009 is finished, you can follow the last few days of the year on my Weblogsites and Sites - from this link you'll find all the other ones:


Christmas and New Year in the next week or so, and with a little luck, I may get through!

All ready to start the "same procedure as last year"!

If not - bye bye and good luck.......!
