Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Fully agree Haystack.
I first saw the bus poster on the BBC news a couple of months ago and remember thinking that it was a stupid thing to allow.
Mind you there have in the past been many examples of religion being intolerant (I though tolerance was supposed to be a Christian philosophy), IE burning of witches, now that was intolerance at its best!
If your last few posts have been replies to Fred (on my squelch list for years now), they are a waste of time as all he is, is a wind up merchant best ignored!

Hays,
I wouldn't like it, but I would not attempt to prevent such posters, unless they were likely to incite others to violence or other illegal acts.
I have seen many very "ugly" posters, which I disliked and preferred that they had been self censored.
-----------
On the previous postings, I would prefer state funding and allowances only for state run "secular" schools.
Those who wish their children to attend "Faith" or other "Privately" run schools would be able to do so, but the cost of doing so should not be borne by, or subsidised by the state in any way.
That would not interfere with what I would be the rights of the individual.
My children are their 40s and 50s and when I reflect back remember that they did have periods of private education and tuition, which for various reasons I was prepared to fund.

what a naughty boy! ...... but no doubt it was to give your children a better start in life, rather like many of your labour politicians do - e.g. slimeball blair

I would hardly have provided language and music tuition for them, if I didn't think it was for their benefit.
A bit like tennis coaching etc..
Other parts of private education, was due to me having to move bases and it seemed to be the easiest way to get round a problem, until I had a more permanent base, when they could attend local schools.
I would do the same again, if it was necessary.

of course and why should you not - or anyone else for that matter? ...... i'm sure it bettered their chances in later life .....no doubt you also took as much care as you could to live where there were good local schools too ..... and if you were in the forces, i believe that they look after their officers' children pretty well too

Your priorities and mine, may differ.

priorities almost certainly, but i would hope the aspirations you have for your children are very similar albeit that you may choose a slightly different route to encourage them to achieve or even exceed their potential

Cant remember ED having posted here over the past weekends mind.

If ED did post here he would probably get a lot of abuse, especially if he posted anything similar to silly things he says .

Just looked at TV page in the paper (Mirror he he)
Some right sh-te on as normal for a saturday. Would have gone fishing but not educated in eskimo techniques of breaking the ice and lobbing some stinky stuff down the hole.

Dreams.
Your posting 22459
Is that the part of the body you like kissing so much?
=========
A little ditty for Cameron and Osborne to his backbenchers.
Isn't it rich?
Aren't we a pair?
Me here at last
You on the ground,
I'm in mid-air.
Where are the clowns?
Isn't it rich?
Isn't it queer,
Losing my timing so late
In my career?
And there are the clowns?
Around me in pairs.
