  • Or you could just buy food in tonight and draw your tattoo on

    Unfortunately the story is all too mundane. Despite having to survive on JSA alone, Tink and her boyfriend like to buy fruit individually and one banana apparently costs them 50p. She doesn't want to buy a packet of market value bananas from Tesco thereby ensuring she only pays 13-14p a banana because...well...she doesn't know if she'll fancy another one.

    This, and the fact that she's feeding half the world's population of hamsters, are all factors which ensure her giro doesn't last.


    add on bus/metro fare and it wouldnt be that it would be more ;)

    You worked before this yes?

    Where is the money from the pensions there as you'll been pensioned off. Your husband will get something so yeah you just don't get £53 a week

    I gave up work several years ago, to look after my children, my O/H was self employed so no pension. Where did i say i JUST got 53.00 a week, i said, if you take the time to read, other benefits hadn't come through although why i am even bothering to explain myself to you i don't know

    didn't you laugh at someone not so long ago when they thought you lived in the middke of nowhere because of all the excuses you make about not being able to get a job? and told them you had shops near you and it wasn't as if you lived in Emmerdale? You live in a town/city right? there are always shops open at this time, your so full of it :rotfl:

    as if im spending my bday money on my OH

    But you could replace it when you get your giro *rolly eyes*

    What a wonderful girlfriend you make - letting your boyfriend go without food rather than spending your birthday money on him.

    I would refer you to the 101 postings she's made where she states she doesn't give a crap about anything or anyone's opinion...but that would take more time than I could bother to employ on the exercise.

    Mind you, I bet her boyfriend is wishing he hadn't spent 50p on that banana last week!
