I have reached 78 with no major health worries,Have two wonderful sons from a 34 year long marriage and two gorgeous grandchildren,received 25 cards on my recent birthday proving I have lots of caring friends,live in a nice house with good neighbours so instead of grumbling I count my blessings.
You see, there is always something we can be "grumpy" about. I am only joking with you
dear Beany. I love to chat, laugh and hopefully spread joy sometimes.
Happy weekend Beany
Rant over.....I feel very strongly about this and no wonder Cameron has resigned from Politics, he was the one who agreed to borrow billions from China.
It only takes about 10 mins to find an ethical alternative not only to energy but anything else that we purchase.
The internet and its search engines have given us the power to change things, one person at a time and in a small way to contribute to a better future for all.
I am convinced the EU will break up Merkel and Juncker have proved unfit for purpose and it will be interesting to see how purposeful she is when it comes to drawing up the exit agreement .
I said it was EDF who will determine the price of Oil not individuals. The discussion was very informative and the concensus was that the Oil price would double ....at a time when Britain is not exactly rich with all the money the NHS is costing and more immigrants are coming here, plus the cost of the debt to China . I still think they could have waited until the water project was complete,, it was considered very promising.. I wonder if Cameron and Osborne will get the £1 million they lent the EU Bank, apparently ring fenced according to Osbrne.
People smoking and litter louts, plus self serving celebs who speak out on the worlds problems if they actually understand any of them !
It's another 3 months til Christmas and already we're being bombarded with all the usual 'must buys'.
Grrr, and of course before then we'll have Halloween and Bonfire night with all their associated commercial necessities. I'm sick of it all before it starts!
There, got that off my chest and feel better now 🙂
I know it's early days , but Theresa May did not make a good job at the Home Office and her
acceptance of a massive loan from China was obviously not thought through , the taxpayer will be paying the cost forever, while the Trident underground only needed a service according to the experts.
I feel much better now !
Your next comment well, I like to eat pork but don't want to see the pigs walking in the restaurant or Hotel dining room !
The remainders keep banging on about the result get over it and lets get on with it what will be will be .
The Scots still trying to leave one club the Uk for another the federal states of Europe? Not happy with £1200 handout per person from the rest of the U.K. Tax payers .its time we all count our blessing of being a Great Britain a melting pot of 4 great nations and the commonwealth to maintain our individual identities.
My family is made up of Scots, Irish Welsh and English, like other UK families .
If you ask me were I'm from I'm a Proud Lancastrian, proud to English but most importantly I'm British a product of our melting pot of great nations.
Like you I also have Scottish & Irish family (my mum was from Dumfries), but I am a down to earth Yorkshire lass who makes the best of things. We all had our vote, so don't be bad losers !
And why do apparently sprightly 'disabled' people, who hop out of their 4x4's with caravan tow bars, and dash into the store get the parking spots right at the door, when clearly they ain't that 'disabled?'
Take the blue badges away I say, let them pay for parking like the rest of us.
