    I can't believe you're all going to meet in London, like the furthest place for us Northerners to go - oh well, we'll let you off this time only!! We know who our friends [STRIKE]are[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]aren't[/STRIKE] whatever!!! :(:(

    That was only an idea - suggestions for an alternative venue are very welcome.

    Anyway, I thought they had those super-fast trains up north which can get to London in about half an hour:rotfl:

It is what is known as a kit and caboodle moment (unfortunately i have them quite regularly) if i were not asian it would have been a blond moment. V sorry.

    Hopefully tax credits and other resources that are classified as wasteful. I mean its utter bollix (pardon the french) that someone on the dole (with or without 20 kids) can earn more than someone working, sorry - that is wrong and my main hate of Labour.

    Labour made it possible to be better off unemployed, when we were in Cuba we seen a family of dolites and they were proud [STRIKE]their benefits[/STRIKE] my tax paid for their holiday - yea right, what an insult to those that work and cannot afford such luxuries....

    Bring back "work houses" (watch everyone google that) :rotfl: OR make unemployed people work for the community to EARN benefits/wage etc.....
