    Sep 2023 CPI Rate on the horizon

    Oh I miss RPI....8.9 apparently and 12.6 last year. I know its pointless keeping an eye on that now, but that's already now an £11K gap/difference in my expected lump sum.

    When You Hit 55

    Bit late to this one as sounds like OP got the answer in the letter. I would be interested to hear how much difference the 2 years made? For 05 EDP I'd expect age 55 figure to be Half again on top of existing. 75% up from 50% I'm currently predicting for my EDP to be a 100% increase (double) at...

    CPI Crash and Pension link

    So both 0.5 and 1.1 go on my tracker. Another big difference between what I'll get since the RPI/CPI change. Although I'd put 2 in as part of my random predictions. Not bitter.

    CPI Crash and Pension link

    It is a little bonkers I find myself wanting prices to shoot up so whenever I get to the point that the rises are added I feel better off, ignoring the fact that by wishing for higher prices only mean what I get now is worth less ha ha.

    Are we streaming via 4001 and 4002 courses?

    Off Topic But this is the big gripe - There are jobs still purely for the techie stream. Why? What is so special about these posts that require someone special? Surely if someone is skilled and talented enough to become a SGT within 9 years, they can understand a bit of Electronics, systems...

    Another latest rumour

    I have been told that there is a trawl going on for drivers to go and empty post boxes and also plans to use the army posties to clear some of the backlog of stuff at the sorting offices near homes of soldiers who are deployed. Has anyone else heard about it?

    Its that time again.

    Well its time for them to pull some names out of hats again I think? Good luck to all of you who have collected enough tesco points to be on the board. (Except those of you who have only done 3 years in rank but never moved after you got your tapes!) If anyone has any rumours on numbers, IM/...

    Free lunch? Not in the RAF

    Can they force you? Can they force you? I can see how it will work on a PAYD unit, you pay for what you want its up to you. But forcing you to pay a food charge is a bit grey? Why not just say you don't get a free lunch. Send you off to buy a meal ticket if you want to eat in the mess. Think...
