The 3 figures compounded come to an aggregate rise of 8.6%
Or 8.634984% to be precise. :Very Happy
£100 + 2.6% = £102.60
£102.60 + 3% = £105.678
£105.678 + 2.8% = £108.634984 :Very Happy i.e. 8.634984%

I wonder if they remembered that p/t are on a different hourly rate to f/t and also pro rota payments should increase slightly.

Are they really?
Please post the hourly rates for f/t and p/t so we can compare them.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Actually its (7.37% of all posts / 17.21 posts per day) got to make sure your facts are straight. :nana :nana

Not a lot for a Moderator of an active forum who posts most of the News stories, and has a smart phone, a desktop and a lap top.

Still if it floats my boat and harms no one.

That's just this incarnation what about all the others. I think you hold the record for multiple accounts, not sure what that means because I won't judge you.
