Wasn't this back in April??? I will be honest I didn't know that until I saw this post and googled it.. Still, wouldn't wish that heartbreak on anyone..

I am indeed, just based on my own experience.. can't vouch for others

Well I tell you what I learned from getting a thick ear back in the day... Respect If you gave your parents lip you got punished for it, I remember falling out with my old man once and he chased me out the house and because I was faster than him he picked up a crate of empty milk bottles on the doorstep and hurled them at me... Getting the belt was also high on the agenda if you ever brought trouble to the door... If you gave seniors any lip at school you could also expect to be on the floor nursing a big fat lip.... back in my day they were known as the school hard nuts, mouth off at them and pay the price.. If you were silly enough to give any lip to senior citizens then you were in proper trouble, most of the men were ex army and the women ex boxers and they were not afraid to dish it out or drag you home by your ear.. then you got double trouble It taught me to respect people older than me and it has served me well over the years.. All them punishments, wether it was a thick ear, the belt, the cane at school or just a plain old slap kept me grounded in life, It meant I couldn't just do what I wanted or say whatever I liked just because I felt like it and I don't believe that I have any adverse phycological damage as a result...

What happened when you gave your parents lip in the old days...

As good as mate.. Close enough to the royalty and just far enough away from the smell of the peasants.. And when I say peasants I mean Brentford and the like... I am sure there must be some still out there but depends on which ticket outlet you trust enough to purchase from.. Here for example England women versus USA women tickets | Wembley Stadium (livefootballtickets.com)

Get in!!!!!!!! 3-1

As Stan say's you can have a private pension and if you are working and do one in the workplace they have to match whatever you are putting in to it... I have both, A private pension and a work pension.. The government pension is determined by your contribution throughout your working life, The more you have worked/paid then the greater the level of pension given to you when you retire..

For faster colour change don't forget to add a side dish of algae and brine fly larvae.. Yum!

You would need to up your intake of Beta-carotene for that to happen...

Quality that is mate...

My eldest daughter was round tonight with the Grandkids and tells us they have to dress up as Victorian children on the 30th for something they are doing at school and have also been told to pack a Victorian lunch for them... So she tells us she does not have a clue what to give them for lunch, then promptly said " Help me out, what did you used to take back in them days??" Bloody cheek of it...

I will tell them I got a on a train that went to the wrong destination and by the time I got back it was too late...

So the Simpsons predict the world will end tomorrow.... And we all know how scary and accurate their predictions can be.. Just wondering if it's worth rocking up at work tomorrow??? Wouldn't want my last day on earth spent doing a shift when I could get a lay in..

Chelsea sack commercial director Willoughby for sending a string of 'Inappropriate' messages to finance agent Catalina Kim... Exclusive: Chelsea sack senior executive after claims of sexual harassment over inappropriate messages (msn.com) The club statement... “Evidence of inappropriate messages sent by Mr Willoughby, prior to his appointment at Chelsea FC earlier this month, has recently been provided to and investigated by the club. While they were sent prior to his employment at the club, such behaviour runs absolutely counter to the workplace environment and corporate culture being established by the club’s new ownership. “The club’s owners are working tirelessly to set and achieve the highest standards both on and off the pitch, and are determined to establish and nurture a culture of transparency, accountability, inclusivity, diversity and opportunity. The club is committed to creating an environment which embodies these values.”

Crazy! You would get less of a sentence if you had committed murder...
