Can't you disconnect it and shove it in a cupboard? I have a TV card in my computer and a TV aerial in the flat, but as I can get no usable signal whatsoever, the aerial is boxed away in my wardrobe. So far as I'm concerned this exempts me from paying the license, and the nice lady on the phone at the TV license place seemed to agree.

too much of a problem with people who smoke a bit of weed now and again, as it doesn't tend to impact too much on society in terms of having to provide healthcare later etc. I do however resent funding the habits of many junkies who are on benefits because they're too dependant to get jobs, and funding the cleanup when they go into withdrawl and end up in A&E.
