Umm... what?

2nd is a cheeky little thief of a squirrel, nicking the biscuit off the table! DSC_45851 by TorontoBlue, on Flickr He looks like a tree rat! 2/10. Got to be a red squirrel for me (unless he's a red sh*te squirrel)

I'd be more apathetic if I wasn't so lethargic.

That's the point really - spend money where it's needed, and stop those who want to use the wefare state as an alternative to work. Easier said than done though, I haven't seen any convincing methods of stopping people taking the piss whilst protecting those who need it.

My daughter paid a fortune for a Sony DSLR camera, which she hates. Personally I use a Canon bridge camera (SX30), because I don't use it for anything fancy. You get x30 zoom built in, and it's not as bulky as the full SLRs to lug around on holiday. Depends what you want to use it for I guess.

For Christ sake! I've just read 5 pages of this looking for the "my wife pays bedroom tax.... hur hur hur" joke. Anyway, bottom line for me is that we can't afford the welfare state as it stands, so we need to find a way to reduce the bills in the most equitable way we can. Don't know if this...

Richard Basehart was brilliant in that, loved it

Nice. I'm working in Cheltenham at the mo, so not getting up there as much as I'd like. Good bevy planned for the oyster festival this w/e though!
