    I can feel myself taking the bait. Here goes...



    I presume you're refering to Adam Applegarth, the Northern Rock blokey? On a very simplistic level it is quite shocking to see someone be rewarded for failure with a nice big pension. When people are given jobs with these inflated salaries they get paid to balance risk on behalf of the company which it seems many of them got wrong. He was probably contractually obliged to that pension no matter how things went, so there we go. Like you, it doesn't seem right to me either.

    I don't understand the point of your second line, so you must be right, I'm too thick to understand it.

    No, sorry. Bad grammer and meaningless drivel is lost on normal people.

    Bad grammer and meaningless drivel is spouted by dimwits.

    Irony is the lack of ability to understand irony.


    Bad 'grammer'?

    I,m a fat capitalist leech and Applegarth is my name.with a pension of £1000.00 per week which is my reward for failure

    Or i am a benefit recepient on £47.60 per week?which i don,t deserve.

    I,m - I'm
    .with - ,with
    failure - failure.

    i - I
    week?which - week, which
    don,t - don't

    I spelled grammar wrong in my rush to get it out. How do you excuse the above?

    The OP is supposed to be a Granny!! God help your grandchildren if this is how you behave on an internet forum.

    PS: I understand from your sensitivity that you are on benefits and a wee bit bitter. There are other outlets for your anger, you know. No need to come on here and start calling people stupid, you eedjit.
    I'll have some cheese please, bob.

    You can still be on benefits and contribute to society.
