Barry kept getting his days in a muddle
Every week he got more befuddled
Which day was his pension paid in
And when was he supposed to meet Lyn
He didn't want to  miss his weekly cuddle!  


But one day he had to laugh
He couldn't recall if he'd had his bath

I'm afraid I don't Marmalade,  or Jam either.
Much too sweet for me.

I just have either spread cheese,  or Bovril on my toast usually.

I live in hope, but I agree that it will be a very uphill struggle.
The other thing which is happening in the UK is the number of young people who choose not to bother working.
There is, of course, a reason for that in that there is not as much work on offer these days, partly because of the problems with the economy.  However, if and when the money begins to run out it is possible that the dole and other handouts might reduce or even disappear.
If I were a young school leaver again, I'd be making every effort to find a job.  Any job.

I gave up marmalade when I decided to be a slim(er) boy. Too many calories. 300 plus in a decent thick slice of toast butter and marmalade 

You need those expensive posh ones with pleats and buckles at the top. About £200 a pair.

I got invited to a posh hotel for a Christmas do once by a company I had started working for. Very old place not modern at all. Flunkies when we arrived. The one thing I recall about the suite we had was the toilet. It sat in solitary splendour in the middle of a room I recall as, but surely couldn't have been, the size of our lounge. I don't do posh. It just makes me feel uncomfortable.

You need vegetarian piranhas to sort that out. Phone your pet shop tomorrow and order some.

Coarse Copper for me

I do wellies..green, most in the garden or green house, they do fill up quickly with potting soil when potting up plants or rain if I leave them out otherwise it just slippers
