Should gay marrige be allowed?
TO CLARIFY: This is about a government consultation asking if gay marrige (with a religious element) should be made legal. This is not to incite hatred as some posters have posted.

Dell Computers
Over the years the family has bought a significant number of Dell computers, and we have never had any problems with them. I've often suggested that people check out Dell offers via the dmxdimension site, as they have been a good buy. NOT ANYMORE, I have just been with a good friend as we were passed between 5 different…

Vent Barry M Cosmetics - Never Again
I've been a big fan of Barry M cosmetics for some years now, however my days of ordering via their website are well and truly over. I placed an order for two items on 2nd September. Given that it was a simple small order and not a great long list, I didn't expect any problem.... Alas how wrong I was. My order arrived with…

Sky/ABC Contractors
I had an engineer booked from Sky yesterday between 8am and 1pm. So I got up (on my day off - woe is me :p ). Come 1pm, no one arrived so I called and got an automated message to say that they'd be there between 12.15 and 2.15. This was annoying as it is 'cause I was told 8am and 1pm and I feel they should be able to work…

National Tyres incompetent staff and ignore complaint
I thought it would be useful to share my recent experience at the Paisley branch of the above. I bought three new tyres from them in July and asked for wheel alignment to be done at the same time. As with any tyre purchase, I also paid for balancing of the three wheels in question. On collection, it was immediately…

Fake store picture - The Bedcentre
Is it just me or is this a little weird/wrong. Looking for a bed and mattress, googled a few places and one store looked good. I wanted to try and see the actual mattress and bed rather than just purchase online, but this online company had a impressive looking showroom. This is their website…

Can I get away with firing a BB gun at children?
Getting a little fed up of the scum that hangs around outside my house. For my sins, I live in a maisonette above a small shopping parade. There's only a few shops (a co-op, couple of off-licences, newsagent, bookies, butcher's etc) so for the most part it's fairly quiet. Due to a mixture of being heavily pregnant and ill,…
