    Here's one to make you laugh (true story)

    Not necessarily the procedures are the same for fraud checks and we both live in the North West , and Local Authorities liaise with each other and link up .

    My point is that there are different methods of surveillance and it would be over a prolonged period and then evidence would be presented . The case would be investigated and either acted upon based in the evidence gathered, or closed and the person being investigated would be notified of the...

    Here's one to make you laugh (true story)

    MC it sounds like an urban myth :-) I worked for a local authority for 30 years and this method of investigation is completely new to me . Plus, you let a strange man claiming to be from the Council, into your home and offered to take off your clothes and show him your underwear ? Seriously ...

    Abroad - how adventurous are you?

    I don't really plan to turn up in the likes of Australia looking at some deserts , I have seen a bit of desert in Peru and I think they all look the same . I would probably look for populated areas which look interesting and a bit lively .
