I have a progressive condition and was pretty normal for the first 30 odd years and had no idea what lay ahead. If I had met myself from the future (eg: current me) there's literally no way I could have comprehended what a disabled life is truly like. I would have heard the words, understood...

Can you elaborate?

The correct response would have been to pull away from him when he first reached for her hand and joked, "I'm a married woman!" You don't voluntarily sit on someone's lap and offer to conduct and interview from there. She's the one condoning the behaviour up until she chose not to. With people...

And that's why it shouldn't be allowed to happen. Media should only be allowed to report on these things after the hearing and a verdict reached. What they've done is immensely powerful with no duty or care towards the truth or the rammifications of lies or embelished accounts. That's not the...

To echo some of the points here... He had a 'brand' and hung his career off it. No woman could claim they didn't know what he was about, I can see that he was probably seen as a pest in the industry as he would most likely proposition anyone with a pulse. I saw a video (probably in this...

Allegedly... ;)

Just dipping back in on the whole 16 year old thing.... Would I want my 16 yr old daughter dating a 30 year old? Of course not because we all know what men are like. I remember my mum stopping and confronting a guy on the street who was looking at my sister, 'what are you looking at? She's 11...

I don't need to caveat this with his former addictions and reputation but here it is. I found the programme strange... I kept waiting for the big thing, the 'gotcha' and it didn't seem to come. "Russell asked me to work with him" (uh oh) "and it went really well for ages".... ok "Russell and...

Yunno, I thought about this before posting but there's a too cold and too hot thread and invariably you get people saying 'well I love it when it's hot/cold'... those people need somewhere to post. Plus why not focus on the positive rather than negative. I'm sure the TPTB will delete if...

So nice to have some better temperatures.... Here's a thread for when the weather actually suits you, hot/cold/sunny/rainy, if it's your thing this is your thread :)

i won't be reading 23 pages of this thread ;) but it does make me chuckle that many vegans seem to think that nature isn't brutal. It's a daily struggle to not be ripped apart by a predator for most animals. That said we treat animals terribly for the sake of cheap meat, often injected with...

Paramedic!

Stupid thread ;) A 'good' salary makes sure all your needs are met and also allows you to do the things you want to do. This varies massively between every single person.

Is "good" having a roof over your head, paying all the bills and not starving? Maybe it's having a holiday abroad every year? Or two? Maybe three? Maybe it's also having a nice car on HP? How big is your family? House? What are your long terms goals? How old are you? Where do you live? It's...

Define "good".

I'll get my coat.......

I may have fizzed my buck reading that ;) I'll normally drop a quick like as a means of recognition/approval, it's pretty rare I'll just leave an emoji. If I've got summit to say I'll say it.

The only mortgage I could get 22 years ago was a tracker, 2% above base rate. £144k. Within 2 years I couldn't afford the repayments and begged to go on 'interest only'. By some miracle they agreed. Then the rate plummeted for many years and I was able to stay in my home on very low earnings...

I went to Ibiza 3 times in my 20s, stayed in apartments and villas and mostly did the clubbing/beach/pool thing. Big groups of friends 'onna mad ting bruv'. I went back for my 39th b'day, solo. Completely different experience, stayed in Ibiza town (which I never bothered to visit the previous...

Without a post to nudge you into further explanation would it have come or would the post have sat there, as is? It doesn't come across as parody or whatever angle you're trying to sell here. It came across as screw them, ruin their day, damage their property, fein sympathy, their wives are...
