If they have a works pension it puts them over the limit for the Medical Card so they have to pay for every scrap they get.

Mind you, since me and my husband reached pension age here, our experiences of the NHS has been very disappointing when it comes to getting treatment.

I must look scabby cos mines always insurance or medical card or it just Sligo general..I have a friend who found out he has a cancer spot on his lung, they told him how much it would cost for op or treatment..they never told him what was best..treatment is thousands more expensive and thats all he's thinking off..the expense cos he has family....

My biggest thing I'd like to go to America for is shopping in NY, a hotdog and chinese food out of them little cartons..gawd I'm sad....

600 Chinese takeaways in Ballina Stonks. No need to travel.

But there not in them little boxes you see on American movies Tates.. ..Gawd I sound like a right food fiend.... [/QUOTE

Went to Vegas a few years ago, asked hubby to got get hotdog for me and our son (who was 4) at the time. He came back with two hotdogs that were bliddy 3 foot long. Funniest thing I ever saw watching my son try to eat the hotdog, it was bigger than he was. Had chinese out of cardboard carton and went shopping in New York New York hotel, does that count

Now I'm jealous..what were the hotdogs like? anything like ours?....

To be honest, I really didn't like them, but if you like the frankfurter(sp) they are very similar to them. I'm a bit common and like them to taste more like chippy sausages

Helloooooo! Sorry I'm late to the party, but here goes:

1. The influx of new (possibly American) members may come in August...we've got top secret, exciting things coming but like a fine wine, sometimes it takes time...

2. I wear flip-flops on my feet and knickers are pants that end at your knees.

3. This forum will not close after BB ends. I promise.

4. I'm pretty sure no-one in America minds being called a "Yank."

I had an American friend who raised his eyebrows a bit when I called him a Yank. But he was from Tennessee!
