So the big, bad, day has arrived.

The dreaded new “Free over 75 TV Licence” came today. “No fee due” it states, and “Valid until 31 July 2020”. Meanwhile, another year, another bumper BBC report publishing the salaries of its top talent! Yes, that’s what they call it, Lineker £1,750,000-£1,754,999, Laura Kuenssberg bumping up her salary from £220,000-£229,999 to £250,000-£254,999, Emily Maitlis £260,000-£264,999. It just goes on and on.

Looks like we over 80s need to form a union! Or buy black and white only TVs.
