How over populated do we need to get before someone states the obvious, how many can the world sustain? Fish stocks dwindling. All kinds of animals becoming extinct or perilously close. Trying to reach oil a mile below sea level. Aren't these all signs that mankind is out of control, close to the edge of collapse?

The tax payer, they always cough up.

Perhaps it was 50% of the domestic fuel for houses. It must be right, I heard it on radio4!

My humble apologies, I shall try harder in future.

The three million unemployed are just that and not working for your benefits does not benefit them or society. There are plenty of jobs to be done around the place, so why aren't they put to good use and maybe learn a trade for when they get out.

Dear Grand National Jump, I am very sorry to have upset your good self, it was not intentional you understand it just blurted out as it sometimes does as I approach the morning of my senility. I will do my best not to blurt out any more of this nonsense as you suggested in your crystal clearly defined post. Ps are you ever referred to as 'easy chair' or possibly er wooden chair.....

The only time toads enter the water is to lay eggs attached to vegetation, other than that they are in the words of Kenneth Graham's 'Wind in the willows' "nasty dry things".

Quite so zeban. I have never had much success with job centres either, the local newspapers were the only places we could afford to advertise in, and had any joy from subsequent employees. Brook st bureaus type places were far too expensive to even consider.

The more that join the better your chances, because you can barter when you buy in quantities, and you can buy large 'economy' sizes. Dishing each portion from the same sized ladel, would avoid greedy pigs.

That is rarely the case they are usually fully alert:)) Pablogrande perhaps if you advertise the post on the Borough forum too you may get more interest shown as the people would be able to walk to the job. Just a thought.

When we had babies I put the cot next to her side of the bed and raised it up on books so that the cot mattress was the same level as the mattress on our bed. This way she could scoop up the baby and feed it with minimal movement and inconvenience, and then shove baby back to her cot afterwards and not emerge from under the duvet. This prevented mum from traipsing around getting freezing cold hands and feet which would ultimately land in the middle of my back. Has any man out there been to bed with a woman with warm hands and/or feet, because I never have?

I do try to be aware all the time of cyclists, but with the best will in the world they can and do surprise you being suddenly and instantly alongside very close to the car. It is not acceptable to arrive suddenly on the nearside rear and expect everyone to know you are there, the only one who would know is the driver behind you. If you had been stationary and the car overtook your position I would expect the driver to know your whereabouts, but not if you arrived on the scene when the car was already in position at the roundabout. Ramble I must pop along to see what this 'exciting' roundabout gets up to:))

Franklins farm shop would suffer very little as it is a permanent fixture, and the market would be only for Sundays I presume.
