There's hardly anything one write here that will satisfy anybody, if I didn't say this, someone will argue that what about those that can't afford it.

It's really difficult to write something here that will satisfy everybody, wow

Yes how about those who can not afford it? Those on benefit counting every penny that govt gives and you expect them not to watch TV because they don't have £159 to give BBC even if they don't watch BBC.

BBC pays Gary Lineker - £1,350,000 year for how many hours job week? That money is from tv licence and you just made it look as if tv licence money is for charity.

BBC should go commercial like ITV, channel 4, 5 and skynews and stop harassing people with those letters.

They responded and confirmed I don’t need to pay any additional funding and it is fine to access the full time nursery.

I included my email and their response below. I referred them to their website too like you did to make things clearer.

Hopefully this clarifies it and I will just keep the email for future ref.

Just to say this: I have no opinion either way as to whether what this school is offering you is public funds or not, but what I can say is that this email you've received is very ambiguous in that the responder did not take a position, and in your shoes I wouldn't rely on it as being definitive.

Not sure what you'll get while TV live is ongoing. Surely, you'll get BBC coverage wink cheesy wink
I guess you concern might vary between whether you're going or you're moving to ...
A quick one on coverage. NB: I've not been to Londonderry but have to Ireland. So, this is desk-research.

For coverage, seems there're just four providers: EE, O2, 3, and Vodafone. 3 seems to lead from behind fighting relegation. O2 appears to lead the log but not sure if that's an Arsenal temporal or for real. Vodafone comes next as being robust and all time championship qualifier, but the fall flat with 5G. However, EE is enterprising; not sure whether they're real contender like Tottenham or maybe Brighton.

Try checking coverage here https://www.nperf.com/en/map/GB/2643736.Derry/-/signal/
This gives you option to search area or better still with postcode https://www.signalchecker.co.uk/county-derry-londonderry/
For buying electronic, without a firsthand experience, probably follow the general UK rule of thumb. All the best

Hello house, pls I will be going to Londonderry, Northern Ireland next week.
I need suggestion on good mobile network.
Where can I buy electronics like Smart TV and laptops?
Good WiFi modem also.
Thanks

I detest the TV licence, and as a result would NEVER pay it ......... grin

I posted this with my full chest ........... tongue

I would rather put the money on GBPJPY or GBPUSD, and take my chances, afterwards buy a pair of lovely Bally shoes.......... grin

Baba, GBPUSD is taking a beating. my TV license money has doubled in a couple of weeks, riding a 120pip loss right now.

How the great fall.... when I moved from US to UK it was 2:1. I can't believe how GBP has fallen against the USD even when US economy isn't necessarily doing better
