Just had a fight with a TV licensing man at the door.

Hello, I'm from... I'm from... these *shows me a card thing*
Oh, we were just talking about you guys last night, we are writing you a letter as we don't use the televisions for anything other than watching DVDs and playing computer games.
OK well I need to come in to check on that.
Do you have a warrant?
No
Then I can't let you in, sorry.
We will get one.
Ok
Can I take your name?
No, I won't give out my name
So shall I put you down as non-compliant?
Yes, goodbye.

The thing is, we're not doing anything wrong. We ARE only using them to play computer games, and I would have shown him in, only there is a freeview box on top of the TV in the kitchen, which has never worked because the house aerial is too old. I didn't want him to see that and get grounds to sue us in court.

They won't get a warrant, because he hasn't got reasonable doubt to think that we may be watching a broadcast signal. I could do what this man is doing and let them harass me with letters, but I think that now would be a good time to write that letter that we were talking about...
