I’m not too sure about the reference to the Reindeer getting their oats, Rose – but other than that it is really nice. :lol:

ForumHostPB replied to the topic Whose fault is this? in the board Getting serious 17 years, 5 months ago
I think you have a really good point there Bas and one that has escaped most people for years.
Being typically rebellious in the teenage years and over-indulging in sex, drinking and so on is OK if it’s nice middle class children / teeenagers doing it simply to irritate their parents.
But when the working classes get in on the act, they spoil it…[Read more]

Quite right Cherry.
My little girl KNOWS that Santa is real. Why??? Because last Christmas she woke up “in the middle of the night” and she told me that she heard the bells on his sleigh tinkling as he passed by outside the house.
Sure enough, the next morning (Christmas Day) there before her eyes were the presents that Santa had left the night…[Read more]

You raise some very interesting and thought provoking points Sarah.
However, the other side of the coin (which most of us fortunately never see) is the high number of malicious complaints of child abuse made to social services, as a means of one person getting their revenge on another person.
I recently was asked to offer some advice (as best I…[Read more]

Complete rubbish ….. Father Christmas IS real, everybody knows this to be true.

Well we blame the “system” and we blame “social workers” but I wonder, I really wonder if we are right in doing this?

Well we all know the reason why “…..those monsters will get new identities when they emerge from jail” don’t we?

Agreed …. but as I’ve said, that’s Contracts of Employment for you.
It’s all very well for the tabloid Media to scream for her blood, but they only do this to wind everybody up and thus sell more of their fish-n-chip wrappers.

I wouldn’t chortle too early if I were you. She will have a pretty tight contract of employment and my bet is that her union will be obliged to defend her.
How about the next headline is “Sharon Shoesmith sues LB Haringey for unfair dismissal” or better still “I was victimised” claims unfairly dismissed Sharon Shoesmith.

Bye bye “squeaky” Diana. Poor little Eoghan, he’s going to be soooo upset now that little splotchy red-face isn’t there to keep him warm at nights.

I’m not clear on whether the moral of the story is that you shouldn’t pick your nose anywhere …. or just in Manchester.
I’ve heard it said that Mancunians are a bunch of nosepickers, so maybe this habit is more prevalent there than elsewhere in the UK.
