Folk who feel the need to share their sexual preferences with the world....who cares!
And the media for banging on about it

Stop making it an issue!

I tend to agree Slim

I don't like Ulrika but I also don't like how the fact she has four kids by four men is used against her.

Mick Jagger has 8 kids to 4 women and non stop adulterous affairs in between.

Evander Holyfield (boxer) has 11 kids to 6 women.

Not a word said about that however

I don't have a problem with her but agree 100% about the double standards.

"Are you aged between 35-40 and have unsecured debts of £5000, then you're legally entitled to Government legislated support that can right off up to 81% of your debts"

Yep just dump it on the tax payer who's been careful enough not to build up a debt

Loud background music on TV shows - it's all over nowadays - I can't hear a word they're saying!

Don't forget the terms and condititions. There a laugh

Deliberate

I've often harboured desires to be a nurse but then thought better of it when stuff like this is happening

Case 1 - https://www.chroniclelive.co.u...th-minister-24038564

Case 2 - Called the support team for my Mum as we've recently been advised to discard all wet wipes as they may be contaminated. Asked if we could just use them as hand wipes instead of throwing them all in the bin. Was told that's all they should ever be used for - never intimate care. So ... called support team asking if there was any other 'wipe' available only to face a barrage of questions basically asking who advised us ever to use wet wipes for intimate care!! Which hospital and when  ... basically the nurse was itching to kick up a storm. So I told her we were never advised - we assumed. Jesus - little Hitlers.

That’s awful Renton ….but I wonder what the heck the wet wipes could have been contaminated with .

VIRGIN MEDIA - don't join, ever

My mobile broke years ago. Asked them if they could get the info out of the phone (numbers/phots) - they couldn't have cared less and declined.

Today ... spent ONE HOUR and eleven minutes on the phone to terminate my broadband and then got cut off. Go to their web site and there's no way to chat to them  ... if you can't remember your sign in details ... aherm. So if you're new . . . there's no way to chat

Will try again to log in and chat but after that will try and ring again. Failing that I can write to them  ... based in Sunderland of all places!!! And say I'm cancelling my Direct Debit from July

See how that grabs them

Renton, I hope you’ve given them a big kick up the rear .

VIRGIN UPDATE - so I rang at 3.30pm and they answered after just 10mins!!

Very cordial and wanting to help after they realised I'm on o2 for my mobile, "You do know we merged recently? Why haven't you called us earlier?" etc ...

Let me reduce your bill to £27 p/m and send you a new hub which will give you super-fast speeds and we'll double your browsing allowance on your mobile"
