General Discussion / Re: Go forth and multiply...

The clever ones out there are those who know how to 'Work the system'..
... that being the only 'work' they know of..
We didn't know how to do this because there was very little system to 'work'..
 
We were offered jobs.. After three attempts and still not working we went on the 'Dole'.. 
which was peanuts and did not involve benefits for this that and the other..

I am sure there was no such thing as 'Carers allowance'.
No 'Cheap' motors provided for those who had 'Walking' problems...
No free 'Holidays' because they needed to get away.. 

Now it seems that everyone is caring for someone.. and are given nice motors to take them 'out'..

Please don't get the above remarks confused with those who are genuine and those who are not.

I agree.. Russia is too busy elsewhere then to start problems with the UK..

If they staring bombing US air bases in the UK they would have the US and Trump to deal with..
They couldn't afford that..
Russia has spent millions and lost millions in the Ukraine (war)..
Even it's people are fed up with it all..
As for snooping around our shores !!!.. they have always done this..

Putin's Subs are lurking in the waters beside us, according to the News . Lately I've often seen The Navys Destroyers when at Dunnet or Thurso beaches. They're over near Orkney too.

I had a quick look in my Gmail spam folder. As well as the expected scams there was a promo email from Google play. They got it right so far as I'm concerned as I don't do gaming but I wonder what their marketing department would make of that  :grin:
