Anti-rant

I feel, after being so nasty about the DSS the other week, that it is only right that when they deserve it I give them some kudos.

Today I revisited the matter of the National Insurance Number, armed with enough paperwork to make the trees around me shiver with fear. They guy who dealt with me was very friendly and explained the whole procedure very well. He filled out all the forms and told me if I haven't heard anything within a certain time period that I could call him personally. All very nice and friendly.

It's just a pity that couldn't have happened 3 weeks ago. Silly man! Anyway, another thing to cross off the to-do list and move on to the next.
