    I just think cats are a pointless pet. Why not get a decent pet, like a dog?

    Perhaps not everyone feels the need to have the type of pet that slavishly endorses every word they utter.

    Would you say you are happy in your £50k a year job? :confused:

    PN, for me its five pages...its easier to read longer, fewer pages IMO. FWIW though...I wouldn't bother. You've heard it all before and can probably write a script without reading it :);)

    I wasnt a big fan of maggie tbh. I am more of a traditional conservative andto be fair, far more likely to vote Lib Dem next time round as on the economy, they (generally) have had their finger on the pulse. You wont find Vince apologising for cuddling up to gordon browns new paradgim will you?

    Its a shame they went completely down the unrestrained capitalism route. Capitalism is great, I fully subscribe, but its falliable to greed, which is why we need 3X caps to prevent unrestrained lending. I actually think we need personal limits on unsecured lending too, at 0.4 salary, with any unsecured lending getting knocked off your secured maximum borrowing amount.

    Yes, I love my job, but I would be happier if I could afford a decent home to raise a family in...

    Lost, I was only bantering about pets. Who gives a hoot? I bet moggylover could do with a big snake to keep her company though.

    Dont worry, plenty of purple-rinsers on deaths door around here... just wait till the boomer generation expires and we will see what happens to house prices!

    Area- south west.

    On semi-cottage went down the road for just over 250 at auction with 0.5 acres, one on for sale in a local village with 0.75 acres (semi 4 bed again) for 250K.

    And yes, those are real savings figures my old dear! Now get back to knitting jumpers made out of matted cat fur... I bet your carpets stink!

    I just think cats are a pointless pet. Why not get a decent pet, like a dog?

    Removed the piccies in case they really did upset a child.



    Oh dear Lord! I could NEVER go back to being terraced or semi-detached:eek:

    I do have a dog - but sorry to dissapoint as I don't have a blue-rinse and am not about to peg out for anyones convenience either.

    Just please promise to stay in the South West - although I can't imagine that poor old GD wants you for a neighbour either:D

    Well, perhaps you would oblige and remove the pictures. Believe it or not I'm told children sometimes see these pages as they stand at their parents' knee.
