    I'm not a bad driver but...

    interfering with post

    Hello I posted my son an envelope which he claims not to have received. It was clearly addressed to him and nobody else. Although he is just turned 17, is it legal for anyone else at home to retain/open it? Thanks

    property - raising funds to survive

    hmrc 'harassment'

    Hi I had a company for 10 years which was driven into bankruptcy last year. It's folded, done and dusted letters in writing that it had been struck off but I keep getting bugged by the HMRC, their collectors and red letters. This morning I got a call from HMRC asking me when it was dissolved...

    Moral issue: unpublished computer system vulnerability

    Dear all I've worked with a commercial computer software product suite for 15 years. I know it well. I was told to "shut up" about certain features known only to the deeply technical/implementers. The reason I mentioned these features was to give the customer a chance to execute a security...
