    DJKillaQueen?

    I imagine it's difficult for her to fit the building job in, what with the legal expert, medical expert, and nuclear physicist roles she clearly holds.

    Check the lounge.
  3. In related news, the FA have charged Suarez, but still haven't suggested any evidence. Surely if there was TV footage, we would have seen it? Before UDT jumps on me, I'll say again. If he is PROVEN guilty, I'll be the first to say he should be heavily punished. It still looks like Evra's word against Suarez's.
  4. The way I read it, he seems to be saying something along the lines of "We don't want to be dealing with serious issues, so if you experience racism, just man up and take it on the chin". The man is a moron.
  5. We've still got our old Baby Bjorn Original, which you're welcome to for free. It's still in good condition, and is handy for nipping down the road, but not for long walks, once baby is a bit heavy
  6. Personally I love the baby bjorn Active. It's comfortable for me, and my daughter (4 months) seems to be doing very well in developing her straight spine. My older daughter was in a Baby Bjorn original, which she loved, but it was a bit hard on your lower back when she got heavier. My wife has tried several slings, and they have their good points, but for us, nothing feels as secure as the baby bjorn Active.

  8. My wife love books, and is a qualified primary teacher. She said she wouldn't ever try to "teach" a young child how to read, but she has always read A LOT of books to our daughter. In turn, our daughter would always bring you books, wanting to be read to. This seems to have taken a bit of a back seat since she developed her obsession with Peppa bloody Pig, but she still loves books, and will memorise the words to them, so she'll recite them as you go along. Obviously this isn't reading, but it has to be a good start. Daughter is now 2.5, so obviously not reading yet, but I do hope her interest in books continues. Not because I care at all about her acheivement in the first few years of school*, but because I love the fact she enjoys stories so much. *Obviously I don't want her to find it really hard, and struggle, but I can put my hand on my heart and say I couldn't care less if shes not one of the top of the class.
  9. Things might have changed a bit since Clough though? Venables got the job.
  10. Excellent news. I'm amazed she was able to wander out at 3am, is there no night warden at the home?

No one is suggesting that all meat should be Halal or Kosher, only that it should be available for those who want it. You clearly don't want it, so don't buy it. But please don't try to say you're having things forced on you, as firstly it's not even remotely true, and secondly, it just makes you sound a bit thick.
  12. Well said Hugunot. When has anyone ever forced Halal chicken down anyone's neck?
  13. Not world class, but you get a good scrap when you watch him fight.
  14. Lets bloody hope so!

    I thought AM was just making a joke at his own expense?
  17. Harry will manage England before he retires. FACT!
  18. Best friendly I've seen in a long while. Spain clearly the better side, but fair play to England for stopping them.
  19. Agree that that phrase was wrong, and yeah, we don't know details. I still feel though that when smoking was legal in pubs, an adult shouldn't really have had to consider whether their smoke might be too close to a kid.
  20. Exactly! Whether or not smoking should have been banned, it wasn't at that tine. So why the Hell should an adult in a pub feel guilty about it because another adult had chosen to sit their child close to it, rather than in the area set aside for people who didn't want to be close to it?
  21. Agree with that. Not really fair to expect regulars to mind their Ps & Qs when they're in the boozer.
  22. I'm only really offended by people who appear to actively seek to minimise harassment and hate crime, Never my intention, and sorry if you feel that's what I've been doing. However, I think I can possibly claim to probably have access to the bigger picture, have slightly wider experience than my own and have more primary sources of information than most here do. Fair enough, and I think I can make a similar claim. I never set out to disagree with, or offend anyone, and I apologise if I have.
  23. No I'm not. What I am trying to say, is that your terminology is fine, but it doesn't mean that any other terminology is wrong. You call yourself a Disabled Person. For me, that means the disability defines you first and foremost. I'd much rather be known as a person with a disability (if the disability had to be mentioned at all). An individual with his own mind, who happens to have a disability. I'm not saying your preference is wrong though, just that I'd use something else. Basically Andrew, you seem to actively look for reasons to be offended, and label people as anti disabled. There are a hell of a lot of people out there with disabilities, who have a wide range of opinions, and some of them would run a mile from the sort of opinions you're voicing. The problem is, you put your personal opinion across as if you are the voice of disability, and frankly, you're not.
  24. Are you having a pop at Helena now, for missing out a "the" before disabled? It was probably a typo.
