I thought you weren't supposed to fill it in until census day?

Providing your circumstance aren't going to change between now and then, i.e number of people living in the property then you can fill it out now, as per information on the attached leaflet as and when you receive it.

How do you know that it will not change? Have you consulted with Mrs S as to what her plans may be for you? :lol: :lol:

We've filled it in :clap:

I did expect some questions about availability of buses or a Broadband service, getting to a Hospital maybe else the number of toilets we have etc etc but they seemed more interested in finding out if I was a lesbian who spoke Urdu. :angel:

Which means we can all be counted in England this year and then go on holiday to Scotland in 2022 and get counted again. Result - UK population recorded as 120m by 2023.

If one is in said situation then the other one updates the form using the unique id number but if one is only a one then the 2021 Census will be out by one :angel:

Statistically I once heard that if one buys a lottery ticket on Friday one is more likely to die before the draw on Saturday than win the jackpot. That's why I never buy a ticket.
