Sometimes political correctness is very bizarre. Religious differences often appear to be behind a lot of these problems but if people choose to live in a different country should they not respect the historical views of the country they move to rather than trying to impose the views from where they originated – just a thought

It would appear that things in this story have been blown out of proportion but like most stories there are three views, one side, the other side and the truth

No?
go to step 2
Step 2
format hard drive
reinstall Windows

I re-install windows about every six months – just have to save e-mail, passwords and data to an external hard drive. Restarting with factory setttings and then installing all updates and software I use takes about a day and a half but I am then back to a clean system which runs much quicker

Should women take their husbands surname once married?

Some people use double barrel names whilst others keep their maiden name.

Did you change yours?

There would be an outcry if men had to change, maybe we should.

Personally it does not really make any difference either way as to me the married part is the thing as opposed to the surname

I have found it amusing seeing some of the double barrelled names sounding more like villages than anything else – i.e. those that include surnames like north or west etc

Here in France most forms ask for the ladies maiden name and most mail is then directed to that surname – so changing surnames means naff all lol

Funnily enough Helen, our daughter and I were discussing this just yesterday. I was admitted to hospital with a severe ear infection in January 2001 but before I could be admitted I had to get Helen to buy a pair of PJ’s so I could be admitted safely. Typically she went and bought two pair’s for just one nights admission. So I two pairs of PJ’s that have seen just one nights use between them, so yesterdays topic of conversation was why buy two pairs when one would have done – course two females idea of logic won though I still disagree

Oops! Seems I’ve trodden on your toes. I forgot you’re obsessed with Jokecliffe. Sorry Coaty, I won’t do it again.

Good Girl, now run along, and don’t do it again, theres a good little minion :D

Oh thank you! How great thou art!

*Sings

Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works thy hand hath made,
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed;

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

Can my misdemeanour appear in your next one dimensional story about Jokecliffe?

some people will do anything for a name check

Oh Coaty! I so want to be immortalised in your great literacy works! I’ve cleared my bookshelves of works by Hardy, Wilde, Dickens and Shakespeare, and filled them with print outs of your far superior work.
Honour me! Let me just have a line to myself in your next story. Pretty please?

yes you are trying hard Dear but I’m just not sure ….

”Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative. ”

and you are consistently desparate …. :D

It’s not a good look Dear :lol:

You are so my hero!

is there any point to this? answers on the dot of a full stop

there will never be an answer to too soon that will fit everyone

just a couple of thoughts that may or may not be right

kenty – perhaps your mother realised she could never replace the person she loved and married and never tried to do so but took pleasure from the time and the children they had together

Anc – young love is always much more raw at such a young age and therefore the results can hurt more at the end of a romance though moving on to the next is not so difficult – so for your son it may not take too long

lol no idea – ours was an English wedding
