I was full of hope as i scrolled down the Page, i saw the Link, I pressed it, it downloaded, and then windows is yet again asking me too Buy office too view the file. I'm no computor geek but i think it says .doc file and if it was pdf or a page of its own i might be able too view it with paying who knows how much??.
I upgraded too windows 10 the other day, doubtless i wont be the only one, cheeky windows. perhaps someone who doesnt have windows 10 could just copy n paste what the link(page text) actually says I'd be grateful lol.
I sent original link to Northants county council. When I click on link now it come up with whoops message, which presumably NCC will now receive. Not sure what to do now....feeling a bit silly
I'm sorry you're still having trouble viewing the Helpful information for Blue Badge services document. The document is 5 pages long, so it would be awkward to copy-paste into a forum message.
There are Open Source (free, legal and available for anyone to download) alternatives to Microsoft Office - like LibreOffice, for example - that allow you to get all or most of the functions of Word. Have you tried any of these?
hi sea angler there is also open office which is completely free and compatible when the file you are downloading is Microsoft word and this is really easy to install.
It took me just two minutes to convert the document in question to a pdf. document using the free version of Open Office which I happen to have Unfortunately, I haven't been able to copy and paste it into this comments box for anyone else to use. Presumably you can only down load documents from the appropriate PDUK publications pages pdf. is fairly standard these days. and if this document is not available in pdf like all the others can someone not take an executive decision and take the time to make it available.in the usual format?
Have just made my first Blue Badge application on basis that I cannot walk and carry anything at same time or push or pull a shopping trolley. So cannot shop alone or use public transport for this and need to be able to park close enough to get assistants to load car for me. Took me ages to do application (supposed to take 15 mins!) and may have to attend a mobility assessment as I don't get any benefits. So hope it is successful ! Should know in 10 weeks, meanwhile Amazon et al will continue to benefit as I shop as much as poss online.
Thanks BB & GG . I'm too old for PIP, I was 65 this year, but If I am refused a Blue Badge I will enlist the support of the Parkinsons Support Team in getting the decision reversed. Hope won't be necessary.
Did your original submission of the renewal form go through ok? Perhaps you could call Northants County Council to make sure they received your submission?
firstly, I must thank Kendo for his Dropbox version. I printed it off, scanned it and emailed the scanned version to NCC. I have now received an email from NCC confirming receipt of the document which has been attached to support my application.
