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.

Exec , her father's answers are not always that helpful. When she text asking if the water was safe to drink in Ireland I told her to taste it and let me know so she went and bought bottled water from the shop.
This is the same daughter who asked if she could vote on Friday for Brexit because she was busy on the Thursday and then asked her younger sister who was 17 at the time if she would go and do it for her.
She is training to be a teacher :-)

She previously used her older sister's passport as ID for a night out in Cardiff and got it confiscated by the Police.

Hmmm? I see what you mean. She does seem to be a bit lacking in the 'common sense' department.
She might need a bit of help:
http://www.wikihow.com/Develop-Common-Sense (There's more stuff out there on doing this)
But on the other hand, someone once told me, that just because someone is your mother, father, brother, sister, son or daughter doesn't mean you have to have strong, loving, respectful feelings for them. In fact, it's quite OK to not like them at all and to go even further and have nothing whatsoever to do with them.
I am reminded about 'common sense', when driving along and seeing kids without coats toddling along in the pouring rain or freezing cold. Fortunately for me, I'm one of the people who do realise, that 'fashion' is NOT much more important than keeping dry.

How many of those threats are Labour supporters ( Unions )?
MPs tell of death threats and abuse at 2017 election
By Brian Wheeler & Alison Carter- BBC News - 7 hours ago
Standing for Parliament in the UK can mean facing death threats, online intimidation, verbal abuse and vandalism, according to MPs surveyed by BBC Radio 5 live.
All 650 MPs were contacted by 5 live and asked for their experiences, under condition of anonymity.
Of the 113 who replied, just over half - 51% - said the 2017 general election campaign had been the worst they had ever experienced.
This was especially true among Conservative MPs, with 41 out of 47 saying they had been targeted.
But nearly all of the MPs - 87% - said they had faced some form of abuse on the campaign trail.
"Does a man coming into my office threatening to bomb it count?" said one female Labour MP.
"Intimidated at hustings by large crowd shouting abuse," a female Conservative MP reported.
A male MP, belonging to one of the other parties, said he had had a "bottle smashed on me".
77 Male MPs and 36 women took part in the survey, which was conducted in July
Party make-up of respondents: 47 Conservative, 45 Labour, 10 SNP and 11 belonging to other parties
British politics has always been a rough business - election candidates are used to being heckled at meetings or harangued in the street by voters with a grievance.......
