    Cheerio

    Going to say goodbye now, although I doubt any of you will miss me particularly. 3 reasons really. 1) We now live in Wolverhampton, and I feel no real ties to Stafford. I was born in S-O-T and raised in Yarnfield. 2) Tha lack of moderation on here, both from the 'moderators' and by many...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    Money and land are pretty much one and the same Tek a lot of the time, effectively. I for one however don't really fancy going back to serfdom. lol I also have seen with my own eyes that all communism does is to put another very small minority in charge of the wealth. Whether that wealth is...

    The Post House in Stafford

    There is the thing Hothouse, there are some lovely venues where you can dress up etc, without paying quite as much. For some people however, they seem to think that 'fine dining' and high prices are one and the same. I just don't agree with this, you don't have to go to places like the...

    The Post House in Stafford

    Seriously DB, give posting on topic, rather than just trolling people and launching personal attacks. Then again, that would require some thought, rather than just posting stupid images.....

    Samsung S3 - Best contracts?

    Try to test 3 with a different handset Tek, as signal is VERY handset dependant. Heck I always got a weaker signal on my old Samsung none Android touch screen phone, but my Ace gets a fantastic signal. I always go 3, they give the best deals for data of any network from what I have seen...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    The "factories gone" is a figure of speech bud, compare how much we produce here in the UK to say even the 1960s and 70s, and you will see there has been a HUGE drop off, and a huge increase in imports from places like China, India etc where they don't have to pay decent wages. Heck, our GNP...

    The Post House in Stafford

    First of all, I am perfectly entitled to express an opinion, just as you are. It is hardly like I am actively causing them to fail in stating this opinion. As to people chosing to pay this, heh that's their choice, so long as they then don't complain about paying their taxes blah blah...

    Bring Burger King to Stafford

    http://www.3g.co.uk/PR/May2006/3040.htm That was news in 2006. lol My Galaxy Ace is on 3. I've only ever found 2 places where I couldn't get a signal. One was in a dip in the middle of the Wyre forest (back to full signal once we came out of the dip), the other was in my parent's old house...

    Mobile 'phone sat' nav's

    Samsung Galaxy Ace here, so my sat nave uses google maps. lol Works a treat, saved a lot of getting lost many a time. The only thing I will say is that if you do 80 in the outside lane of a motorway when it's just told you the turn off is in 1/4 of a mile, then expect it to tell you "turn...

    Supermarket 'promotion' prices - Are they for real?

    Invitation to treat. Sainsbury's - Pringles on bogof, £3 a tin. Asda - Pringles - £1.50 a tin... Shop in Sainsbury's, you MIGHT get a voucher giving you £2.45 off your next shop (note, your next shop in SAINSBURY'S, who just told you they aren't the cheapest on that voucher...)to price...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    What came first:- The chicken or the egg? The lazy assed parent or the illiterate child? Who is to blame for our nations problems? We are, all of us. Do I believe that the welfare state is to blame? No, I don't. I don't believe this because from personal experience I have found that...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    Nobody actually suggested that Tek. What was said was maybe some kids are starting too soon, that parents need to try to take a larger role in educating their children (if thick as pig.... you can still attend meetings at the school etc) and most importantly that eduction needs to be child...

    The Post House in Stafford

    Hothouse Flower, if somewhere isn't upmarket enough for you, move to somewhere that is rather than looking down on those you live with. Shame on you for been such a superior snob. Ade PS. £40 per person for a meal is just shameful! Charging that kind of money just for a meal in the current...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    Comes down to the educational institution and the child again zebidee, but I do indeed agree that some educational institutions switch some kids off. On the flip side, some kids in some schools absolutely thrive! Again I can give an example. On of our children has an autistic spectrum...

    Bring Burger King to Stafford

    I was brought up that it was rude and common to wolf your food down... It takes me considerably longer than 2 minutes to eat a sandwich. I take it back, you are a snob. That or you have never been in the position where you can eat whilst walking, or go for 12 hours without food. Seriously...

    Illiterate school-leavers and workless households are destabilising UK economy

    I agree with the 2nd part completely. However I feel the illiteracy (which I doubt is even genuine, some of the folks who whine about this should try some of the work kids have to do these days...) and whether kids are ready for school are different things. I also believe that the 2nd part of...

    The difference between you zebidee, and a "more vocal individual" is they don't care with what they post is popular with somebody. Post it, Gadget and myself will be interested I am sure. I do agree though, 5 is nothing. I couldn't walk until I was 4 and a half. Was this my parent's fault...
