The yearly tax-free payment to help people pay for their heating in the winter was worth £250 for the over 60s last week, and £400 for the over 80s. But the payment will revert to £200 and £300 for the two age groups in the winter of 2011-12. |

It is in the wrong place, not the end of the world but the categories are there for a reason. As someone already pointed out this has gone way off thread already, owing mainly to the fact that it is in this section.

It is not a life or death situation but people just voicing their concerns/ opinions or whatever. Who really gives a toss what section this is supposed to be in? Unless the pedantic squad have taken over this forum.

Should I start posting about Audi's on here with all the people from the car forum I go on just because I live in Newbury? Should we all be writing about Libya in the Newbury section because there's a chance someone in Newbury knows someone out there? |

I don't think this forum is busy enough for it to matter which section posts are made, although obviously it would be better if people did create threads in the appropriate category.
