The first batch of 10-year DVLA personalised registration certificates are now due for renewal. DVLA rules state that if a certificate is not renewed before expiry, your rights to the registration are lost. This does not affect plates already registered to vehicles.

NEWS: The work mileage allowance for under 10,000 miles will rise by 10p to 55p backdated to April 2026. So this means if you drive for work in your own car (like many care workers for example) you can be given up to 55p a mile tax and NI free. And if you're not given that level you can claim the tax back on the difference between what you're given and that amount Eg so if you're given 30p /mile. You can reclaim tax paid on your wages for the 25p/mile difference.

This man’s name is Kim. He is 77 years old. These guys on the beach were challenging people to see who could climb the rope to the top. 77 years old or in his case, young, and making it look as easy as if he was in still in college. I would surmise that he is in the top .01% of his age bracket. I hope to be half as agile as he is at that age. Phenomenal shape. Do you think you’ll be able to climb that when you’re his age?

Hospitality tickets at Leeds vs Chelsea are almost 3 times more expensive than Man City vs Southampton, despite being the exact same round of the FA Cup. Disgraceful that the FA are even trying to extort fans cause they know it'll be paid... This surely isn't fair 🤦🏼‍♂️
