  1. look up your phone model on the internet. There will most likely be a you tube video showing you how to reset it.
  2. I fractured ribs and couldn't bend my body; the pain was unbearable. Don't remember it actually lasting very long. Couple of days before it became bearable. Which I spent laying down, mainly. Of course, you have to spend some time doing nothing and letting the bruising heal. No lifting, yoga classes etc Try arnica cream - speeds it up.
  3. Hilary's also pro war - particularly pro "Sell arms to Israel and destroy Iran" She's got a damning history - she just evades responsibility for it. Trump - future is uncertain, but Russia doesn't hate him as much as Hilary
  4. I do that with my name - it's on auto correct now
  5. May's appeal is scheduled for 7th Dec.

    In fact - your attitude sucks. It's disgusting, disrespectful and reminds me of someone who wants something for nothing.

    Bajanbelle - you are exactly like the guy who runs Sports Direct - with a bit of racism thrown in. I doubt you will ever get a cleaner now.
  8. ok Johnnie's - maybe TV is ok for daytime but evenings need to turn it off and have music instead. We love coming to eat at yours - usually Saturday's after swimming - and will definitely come in the evening to show our support.
  9. games is not a bad idea. but does change the nature of it entirely!
  10. we had a Toyota Hilux and it was really just awesome. completely reliable and my main thing was if someone hit us, we'd be safe....rather than get squashed. oh - and also because of work - tools - equipment.
  11. Happy Hallowe'en Johnie Jim Jams :-)
  12. That sounds nice. I'll be at my nan's house (she's 96), probably playing cards or pottering around in the garden doing jobs she needs. Or just nattering. It's all good.
  13. yes - agree RH - the person we spoke to went out of his way to help - he was not front office - spoke to the case assessor directly...very different world.
  14. I think it's grey area - freedom of speech dictates uttering the actual word is not illegal but using it can be seen as inciting racial hatred/ harassment etc - which is illegal. So, really, you should know better. Why use something which you know is offensive, just because you think you can. Because you can't.
  15. Pop - is your personal moral code defined by what the Law actually dictates you can and can't do? Do you not have one defined by your own conscience/ values?
  16. I watched Ken Loach on the news the other day, talking to a politician - who really did not get the point at all. I suppose unless you actually KNOW anyone that is having or has had problems getting their benefits paid - and the stress, the serious lack of money/food/ threat to housing - then it's probably very easy to think it's not as bad as all that. I've seen through a friend the way the social security treat people. We've wondered if they get commission for stopping people's support. The offices don't share information you bring in, but are very quick to cancel payments if another department does. One has repeatedly lost documents, so payments have been halted. Housing benefit stopped as a result. Would only restart when the incapacity restarted - but they kept changing goal posts and taking SO long...asking for things already given, asking for things not possible to get (for instance - and how stupid does this sound? Bank statements of last six months. Bank said they didn't have them. Benefits closed his case... if you don't know what to ask for there is not support or guidance - bank had not told him they could order them - they did not offer to - they just hadn't been asked 'properly') Basically - and I do really believe this - making it nigh on impossible. I believe they make it as difficult as possible. And when you're stressed, worried about the basics - it is possible to find it completely overwhelming. His landlord waited - all sort sorted after several long months and many phone calls. LL calling the housing office and threatening to evict him worked. Numerous solutions discussed - appointment offered - help given. All resumed, back dated - just took a call from someone determined and challenging. I can imagine the genuine cases who really need help. It's a shocking tragedy. It's the real poverty and not the 'hand out britain' we so fondly like to spit at.
  17. Miga - are you trying to be obnoxious? Or is it just coming across that way?
  18. LOL - you counted! I'm sure the invitation for comments is open to comments about the actual presentation.
  19. ultimately, it depends on the nature of the business you are seeking to secure.
  20. Thank you Uncle Glen. Please channel your comments to the email supplied for that very thing! It's a great opportunity.
  21. A City for All Londoners http://www.london.gov.uk/get-involved/have-your-say/all-consultations/city-all-londoners Start date: 24 October 2016 End date: 11 December 2016 The Mayor, Sadiq Khan, has published a new vision for London: A City for All Londoners. This document outlines the capital?s top challenges and opportunities across priority policy areas, as well as the changes that City Hall wants to deliver over the next four years. We want people to tell us what they think about this document. So, over the next few weeks, we're inviting stakeholders, community and voluntary organisations, and Londoners to take part in workshops and discussions to shape City Hall policy. There are three stages of consultation, outlined below. You can also tell us what you think throughout this process (from now until 11 December) by emailing [email protected]. .
  22. so, even then, you're saying people were unable to make an intelligent choice but were tricked into the choice they did make - which you disagree with, so was clearly wrong.
  23. It sort of reeks of 'anyone who's different to me - or thinks differently to me is stupid' Glad to see intolerance is accepted - if you approve of it.
  24. My sister's invited a friend for dinner - who's a magician. Should be fun.
  25. very good JL
