  • Sorry Nenen forgot to answer your observation.Yes you are right (but I regret it now I should have thought of another catchy title), the reason I used that title was to draw people in to read my question and it certainly succeeded.:T.

    I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.

    And if my husband had referred to me as 'not the brightest penny' I would have indeed thought that he was calling me 'thick' and I would have been extremely hurt and angry.
