    ..if you want to know where your taxes are going , my grandkids ,in their lifetime have had around £200,000 worth of it...thank you so much!!!
    Early night for me, am exhausted.

    And I for one don't begrudge my taxes being used for these purposes, :):) although I do object to them being wasted at times on other things I really don't agree with.

    CM - sorry to hear about your cat, hope you can come to a decision soon and hope the children are OK about it.

    hi bully, glad your grandkids got on Ok,i've worked nearly all my adult life even having to go back only a few months after having both my children ,had acouple of short spells of being unemployed but apart from that have always paid my tax & Ni ,i would rather my taxes etc were spent to help the likes of your grandkids rather than people who have not helped themselves to be healthier eg obese people who have a gastric band & then want a tummy tuck for cosmetic reasons etc ,i know in some situations it may not be the persons fault but some people could help themselves more .

    I think you should get a lottery ticket tonight cos if it aint a fault on the system the chance of you getting another receipt like that is virtually the same as winning the Euro millions. BTW I'm yer best pal cos I Love Derby County, they are the BEST football team in the world (just in case you win 149 million):D:D:D:D:D:D
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)
