    :): ) lol. You should hear some of the garbage I've gotta listen to for most of the day. I have a mate at the meeting and we usually play "buzzword bingo", makes it bearable and keeps us awake!

    I hope I didn't cause any trouble in this thread :) As I said, I found that comment unneeded as the woman is sick and she is also old, didn't seem fair to call somebody like that a cow..

    You have a good day yourself too sweetie :) xx
    hi amanda my father in law another straight talking man used to call his wifes mother "the old f-ing cow" and they used to have such battles he had the same humour as Nid but if you needed him he was the best and first to help you. He was there for her in the end when she had a very slow and painful end but still having a bit of black humour with her even then. So really I think he was just speaking out loud. Lots of peeps think stuff that is not very PC but dont dare say it we have gone a bit PC mad in this country, and it can be a way of coping in a difficult situation .Nid did post later on that he was very pleased the lady in question was finally getting help. He is quite clearly a loving father and husband and if he had to face what i had to years ago he would be such a strong character I can tell he would move heaven and earth for his family. Thanks for your comments and you are entitled to your opnion as well cos we live in a country where we can without being tortured or shot but lets leave it at that have a good day yourself.

    go here -http://lurkertech.com/buzzword-bingo/ and print. At your meeting try and say words from the sheet. Whoever gets a line across/full house then you win. You need at least 2 ppl to play and it's important that the other ppl do not know you're playing.
