Tony!,
Old age Pensions are RELATIVE to the local cost of Living "They" say [Here we go "They"-again!] Getting back to your original-How the heck can Estonia be compared to UK? Have you checked the NZ Superannuitants Pensions? You would get a surprise!! I have been involved with War Disability Pensions for several years now.We have a "Grim Reaper" in charge -an Ex Brigadier -who shall be nameless-but Disability War Pensions are now administered and CONTROLLED by the Defense Dept [Equiv to your MOD!} War Disability Pensions -here now are very much more lean and -not as I experienced in former years. We are all on the way out -Your Pensions War and Old age are somewhat much better than the ones I am conversant with! Gee! Heating allowance, Xmas Bonus for "Oldies" etc and don't tell me it ain't cold in NZ! {OK -only for 3 to 4 months} UP THE WELSH! -Estonia indeed! -Jack.
