Agreed, the Old Fart is a good egg. :))

Am I the only one to notice that this morning Laddy Muck aided by numbers had filled the whole page with Alan Medic threads. Hence the flies.


'A' for effort

"numbers" was an equal member of a very efficient team...


Cheers steveo and AQ :)-D

as a new visitor to the EDF, I can be objective here. I come here to take the piss and mostly, but this may be only serious post . evah


there really is an undercurrent of if not ouright nastiness, but something not sorta comfortable going on, not going to say clique, but an aggressive tone that feels a bit uneasey, that seems to be popping up more and more in discussions. have a look at recent longiush threads- sperm flecked dismissives all over the place. this cant be comfortable reading for new visitors outside general section


Not that it really bothers me, my lifespan here is measured in hours rather than years, so i will be off soon im sure.

im pretty thick skinned on the EDF , as i have no investment in the ebb and flow of the fourm and rarely get into an argument or abuse because


a) they are usually wrong

b) they are always wrong


I often comment, then remove it (.) as its not worth the bother


Graham Greene described our man in Havana as an entertainment- and for me, thats as far as it can go

It was the cat/sink post that gave it away...

No RD, haven't a clue how to make one. My mum used to make it too. She's in her eighties now.

Surprisingly I'm nowhere near that but am probably turning into her as the years go by.


Please just try to be NICE.

    • Hubby had to retire from work due to serious ill health which had meant he was off work for several months at a time. His hospital consultant advised part time employment only, Signed on at Job Centre and asked them to send him on courses, especially IT has not computer literate or had a computer. Job Centre refused and insisted he applied for full time work even though he produced medical evidence from hospital and letter from previous employment detailing the reason why had medically retired him. He applied for the (then) disability allowance but was refused as not disabled enough and the fact he could work part time. Applied f or several part time jobs but when they knew of his medical history turned him down. That was 18 years ago. Disabled people who want  to work find it hard to find employment. I studied Disability and Employment in Holland as part of my degree and found at that time, the Dutch system more flexible. If a disabled person found a job part time, they still received a portion of their benefit as well as wages. If found a full time position, benefit suspended and were subject to regular reviews as to how they performed in  the job. If there were no problems, benefit was withdrawn, however if they found the work was not suited to their disability - they gave up work and went straight back to receiving their full benefit. If a disabled person finds employment, their benefits stop immediately. If they cannot maintain the work and are sacked, getting back onto benefits is very difficult, Give those who are able to work at least part time, the opportunity to have reduced benefits to top up wages.
