    I would have stuck it until I found something more enjoyable. You are slightly missing the point I am making, its not the time scale (3 months) but the attitude to do meaningful work and not be a burden on the state, unfortunately the work was not as meaningful as I hoped but I knuckled down on got on with it whilst searching and applying for other roles that would interest and challenge me to help myself and develop my skills in the workplace.

    Oi! You have crossed a line on this one. It is fair enough having a go at me, but publishing pictures of my wife and children is out of order.

    I could never understand spending that level of money at Christmas...even when we were in a two income family, much to now ex hubbies annoyance.

    We recently celebrated my son's 5th birthday party, and bought him a colouring book, some felt tips, a Bob the Builder toy, and 2 books. All in all, it cost about £20, and he was very happy.

    We certainly don't want him to be a bolshie spoilt brat.

    No, it's not Methodists! Methodists are normal people, not freaks.

    Depends - some of my second cousins are strict Methodists, and they didn't dance, drink alcohol, play cards, or go to the cinema.
