Not something I worry about, but it's a good point.

Oh yeah and another thing, you seem a great positive type person who i'd expect to get a job in no time, perhaps your shy in the real world (I am!) but confident online?, its just a case of thinking "sod it, i'll try anything", that determination will eventually get you a job and no matter how crap will be extra money coming in.

Also ignore the harsh "lazy" style comments people tend to throw when they here the first words "dole money", the fact you know your trying is good, don't let the lack of a job lose any confidence you've got though, also get tons of application forms for jobs that you aren't even qualified for/couldn't do, its good practice filling them out and try to get feedback on the forms.

Well that's okay then I still don't think it's for me though, but maybe, i'll have a look I suppose.
See, you go in the jocentre and they point you at a computer, but you go on the computer and they point you at a job Fab.

They can only do so much, you have to do the rest yourself.

How far is "I can't get to it"?......

If its anything under 5 miles then a bicycle solves that problem.

Oh I wish! :rotfl:
Try 8 and a half. Uphill. On a dark, very dangerous road. And that's if I can find a job in betws, which is hit and miss at the best of times.

Yeah the dark nights are a problem if the only transport is a bicycle or moped.

How about cycling to the nearest bus route?, is that still a couple of miles?

Yeah, we have buses that leave from here but they are not really great, the next one is in betws, so again 8 and a half miles

You do seem to have an obstacle for every Avenue of opportunity.

how about working from home? doing the data entry malarky?

We seem to have gone full circle and back to the moped thing. Which is too dangerous apparently.

I read about as far as this when I was reading the thread.

What must be remembered when viewing data about motorbike crashes in Wales is that people travel from far and wide to ride their motorbikes in Wales, and so the figures are very distorted.
