[QUOTE Paul Herring]
'Witness the anecdotal evidence of teenage girls trying to get pregnant so they can get a council house for example (up until a few years ago at least - not so sure it's a guaranteed way to get a house these days any more,) or the more salacious stories in the red-tops of single mothers (or less occasionally married couples) popping out a sprog every 10 months or so, and either boasting about the amount of money they get from the tax-payer, or complaining that it isn't enough to keep them in Sky subscriptions and X-box games.

No, you failed to comprehend the 'or' separating anecdotal evidence and red-tops. I was talking about two different things. How you conflated them is beyond me, especially after it's been pointed out.Conjugating the verb 'to be":
-o I am humble -o You are attention seeking -o She is Nadine Dorries0 -

The OH is back working fulltime aswell now so we need to find more money for another day come January as I'm taking 1 day/week holiday to look after sprog.
So you're getting about £30 per week? That's £1.5k a year, or thereabouts. How much are you paying in tax?
Unless you're working for free, you're paying a good deal more than you're receiving, so you're not a problem :-)0
