    It's a practicality issue from what I recall SS ;) I've had a fun youth let's say *tries to look innocent and probably failing miserably*... and trying to balance trays and trays of litre jugs of beer is a messy business ;) Especially as the days get on and people are usually exceedingly happy/unco-ordinated/fished as parches

    "Apparently" as in "in OH's opinion"? :confused: Unless you have those special boobs that come with black ml/oz markings on them (and frankly, where did you get them cos I want some! :rotfl:), how would he know how much she's getting from you? :p

    Would be better if they had a little fuel gage in their arms, 'Empty, Full, Just wanting attention.'

    I really must get round to listing all the stuff I took photos of and get some money !!
    But it just seems like so much effort :)

    I know exactly what you mean. I'm currently looking to see what to do with the four crates of books I have in front of me.. Do I bother to ebay/amazon them all, try selling them in bulk for local car booters, or just FreeCycle them? :confused: I remember how much they all cost so it pains me to just FC them but then I don't know if I can be arsed with listing them individually...

    I appreciate it's possibly a pride issue SM, but without signing on he's missing out on the money (don't know how much it would be - £42something?) which is at least something more towards your debts and also the National Insurance stamp which goes towards his pension.. :confused:

    Ah, that's why I said I didn't know how much it'd be - I think the £42 is the contribution based one I was on years back when I'd had a job for a little while (or rather, officially been on the books for a little while! ;)) previously.

    I suppose watching Benefit Busters might have spurred him on if he wasn't doing anything about looking for a job but as he is it just makes it worse to see all the ungrateful ones on there who don't actually want a job anyway! :(
