    Warm baked beans? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Ever hear of Led Zeppelin, Mila? (Other classic British rock bands are available) Many, if not most of those groupies were American, I'll have you know and no, I was not there!

    I MAY have gotten a bit ranty! I didn't mean to offend but I'm so sick of people moaning at larger families draining benefits etc- it's actually just propaganda created to diffuse the real issues of tax avoidance and fat cat bailouts!:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    I agree with every word you said, Kim, and I have no axe to grind; didn't stop me sticking my oar in, though. I think we both know what DKLS is short for; no wonder he has no kids...

    I love these boards, they are a wealth of info and a fantastic support network if you are like me and have no social life (well except in my case that which involves discussing topics like weaning and breastfeeding in baby groups).
    I love to come on here of an evening and lurk around, comment on boards where I feel I can actually help someone and give support.
    Then you come across eeeeeejits like this one who goes on boards completely irrelevant to their life just to wind up other people and have an opinion.
    Opinions that are bigoted, daily mail lead and completely stigmatising to those they have an opinion of. Why go on a post about school uniform when you don't actually have children or know anything about school uniform costs/expectations. :mad::mad::mad:
    Its just trolling, and that particular person get loads of warnings from MODS for being so antagonistic.:(
    Anyways....
    Lovely Sunday.:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j
    Glorious weather, my mum came over and we spent the day having a natter and playing with the kids in the garden. We had a love roast dinner curtsey of Chef Moi. It was bleddy 'andsom too. the Yorkshires were delish and so was the veg, I have enough leftover veg to have bubble and squeak for lunch tomorrow :D:D:D:D
    All school work done and bags packed for tomorrow, ive just finished the ironing and now time to chill out with some Dave Ramsey youtube clips before I go to Bedfordshire.
    It sooooooo hot here I will be on top of the covers all night and still be sweaty betty.
    here to the last week of term :coffee:

    Nothing secret about it, our Kim, and I would not be seen dead in Doc Martens, any more than I would consuming a bat... I leave that to others. You are what you eat, apparently. High-heeled boots all the way, babe. Once upon a time I could actually walk in those... not denying the eyeliner but some of us had class, I'll have you know. Gun metal grey, once I evolved from dark blue (I know, right?)

    The last gig I went to? Little Caesar, at the Marquee club, right after it had moved to Charing Cross Road. Must be a quarter of a century ago. They were excellent. Still are.

    I always know you two will be up to something when I come on here! :D. :beer:

    Led Zeppelin oh yes. Part of my youth/college experience. That does date me... :eek:

    Loved your responses. I think some people learn to be hateful at about 11-14 yrs. and never outgrow it. What sour horrible lives they must lead, always sucking on lemons and spewing forth their venom. The one who answered they chose to not have children made a really good choice. We don't need that type multiplying! :p:D :T:T:T
