I was remembering the last advert I saw for TV licensing which said
that if you are watching TV without a license you could face a fine of
£10,000 and then have to buy a TV license.

Similarly the £400 figure was based on the last time I had a request
refused where the authority stated they had calculated that the cost
of fulfilling the request would be more then £400 so they were
entitled to refuse.  Presumably it's gone up £50 since then to reach
the figure you quoted.

I wonder if classifying a request as vexacious is the FoI discussion's
equivalent of Godwin's law?

Apparently I'm a "Eierlegende Woll-Milch-Sau", I think it was meant as
a compliment.
