I'm going to put applications in writing in future
silly Numpty forgot the first rule

Rule 1 - do everything i writing(creates a paper chain)
Maybe that would be something different to send to an MP:o:p

That's the spirit Numpty, don't let 'em get to you. I wrote to our MP last year when I was in the same position - got so exasperated by the morons (and I use that word advisedly) at our local JobCentre that I thought I had to do something. I got a letter back from him (very surprised actually) plus a letter from the Department of Employment and one from the Chief Executive of JobCentre Plus - this does contain some useful info which I will email you. Going to PM you some info as well. If you need any help writing to your MP let me know (my letter seemed to work, maybe if you do something similar it might also). The whole JobCentre setup needs a severe kick up the **** - total bl00dy waste of tax payers money IMHO (sorry to anyone on here who might work at the JobCentre, I'm sure there are some great people in there, but there are lots of idiots too..). OK, rant over, sorry :o:o

Sorry about your pan scrubber, Numpty, Nargle's right, though, could have been your knuckles - and I've done that too!

Nargle - your avi is very animated this evening - or maybe I just haven't noticed the eggs jumping around so much before...

Hope everyone else is well - no snow here yet, but it's imminent I think, bloomin' freezing here today :(

They say elephants never forget a face ...

If it's true, I wonder how they do it???

Don't know MF, but they certainly never forgot another elephant's face, or so I believe - they are incredibly intelligent animals....

I've been out and about today, it's not snowing but it sure is cold. I'm away for the next few days and it's only now occurring to me I should probably check it isn't snowing where I'm headed! Just assumed it wouldn't be as it isn't here

Apologies for neglecting my duties. I promise to work extra hard when I get back! :A

And please do keep up the effalump piccies MF - they always cheer me up My folks never would let me have one as a pet when I was a kid - I still don't know why :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

MF's elephant pictures remind me of the tale of the bloke travelling in the jungle who came to a lake where he saw some elephants in the water. There was also a giant turtle basking in the sunlight nearby. One of the elephants came out of the water, went up to the turtle, picked it up in his trunk and threw it with all his strength into the lake. The man watching this turned to his native guide and said "Why did he do that?" The guide explained - " About twenty five years ago this very same elephant was walking along when that turtle walked in front of him and tripped him up. That was the elephant getting his revenge!" the man said, "Twenty five years, though - that is one hell of a memory!" The guide said, "Yes, we call it turtle recall!"

Yes I know it's pathetic but I am a bit shattered after a busy day charging about, so what do you expect, genius? Night all!

That's because they have lots of grey matter (groan)

I'm surprised at that nicca, seems a bit unreasonable of them
Have a great time away and hope you don't end up snowbound somewhere:(

There's only one response for that Nargle - the Basil Brush "boom..boom"....
