@HMRCcustomers For weeks i've been trying to get hold of my tax overview for '23-24. Your website is displaying a system error when I try and access it. Have been sent in circles by HMRC online support and the Online services help desk. I need it urgently for a house purchase.

Another scale busting map!

September rainfall for the UK.

Huge variation but parts of southern England seeing over three & a half times their average rainfall.

Incredibly Bedfordshire & Oxfordshire saw their wettest month (of any month) in at least 188 years.

Nope. Sorry. Get gone.

Paywalling 'wild' camping is not the answer.

Rights of access run deeper than these permissive pay-to-take-part schemes.
