Well, considering I am blonde, it's not too wise for me to wear anything to make me dumber :D

Besides, it seems a good way of disarming a rather heated argument ;)

To be fair it may look like a Lime, but its actually the latest Shoie helmet, and boy does the cat need it.

He can ride :evil: constantly getting his paw down on the corners and racking up an impressive 9 points in one hour on his mini moto. You have heard of "Ghost Rider" this is "Moggie rider"

He is currently "Wanted on Warrent" by the Paw police for fail to appear and is believed to be hiding out in a garage somewhere in deepest Lincolnshire.

Have you seen him??

hi all, ive just been reading the tread, my view is the poeple who can work but dont, should be made to or risk loosing the benifits, there just laughing at us who do work, as for people coming in to the country to work, if they pay there way and can do the job well, i dont mind, i lived in london most of my life and there are so many people from different countries coming in and you see so many not working and not wanting to get a job as the benifits they can claim are enough, thats what i dont like but weve got people like that from our own country you can blaim others for doing the same, ta

Range Rover Blues:
Having been made redundant a couple of times now all I can say is don't knock it till you've tried it.

It's soul destroying enough applying for hunders fo jobs only to be knocked back at the interview, without the state breathing down your neck telling you you have to get a job.

I payed my taxes whilst I was working so I'm entitled to benifits when I'm out of a job through no fault of my own.  However hard you try to reduce the benifit culture of some elements of our society you invariably end up hurting the involuntarily unemployed more so.

Lord Shagg-Pyle:
I can understand what you are saying RRB, but my main issue is with those who have made no attempt at all to seek work, but have just breezed through life taking all they can. The same goes for career criminals. If they are fined, and can't/won't pay up, then property is seized to the value of the fine.
The value would have to be what the item could be sold at, not what it was bought for. So these scrounging habitual criminals could wave good bye to their nice big plasma screens.
Then they could go out and pick up litter to repay society.
