Or ... you don't get an email. Nor a call. I ordered a PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II some time ago. After a week, it still hadn't arrived. So I call the shop. They tell me it's going to take about a month for my printer to be delivered. Which they knew at the time I placed my order. I don't mind waiting - but I do most certainly appreciate being kept in the loop.

Apparently, the German government now wants to tax the pensions they pay to Belgian citizens who were forced to do hard labor in Nazi Germany. The tax is retroactive, too (starting from 2005).

Un-bloody-believable. Whoever came up with this, needs a beating.

Unbelievable.

Please provide some more information.

Germany tax levy on Belgian Nazi slave labourers provokes fury

A decision by Germany to levy a tax on pensions received by Belgians who were slave labourers for the Nazi regime during the Second World War has provoked fury among survivors.

The Telegraph (www.telegraph.co.uk)

Some sort of solution has been worked out, I believe.
