Now that is hilarious :lol: I’m always behind the times…I was dumped by text :lol:

Now that’s low.

No!!! I was dumped by text once.

Way to go in this modern age.

I feel good about popping into JC after a few week’s break, and finding it still as funny, infuriating and downright random as ever.

Aint life grand!

We could do with a spot of old Gaz.

Most of a year on and Blossom still has the best answer to the question.

Women’s position in society has sadly gone backwards in recent years, as the right to sexual freedom and expression has become the obligation to flaunt it and be available. So much for celebrity culture. There are strong female scientists, business women, political leaders and athletes but (Olympics aside) we hear very little of…[Read more]

We made up the calender, and choose the year from which to start counting.

We even changed it by several days at more than one point in history. As recently as the 20th century Russia and western Europe used different calenders as can be seen by the Bolshevik revolution being the October or November Revolution, depending on where you stood.

Surely all the Government had to do was say yes we will allow same sex marriages, however we will give those licensed to conduct marriages the right to decide whether or not they will marry same sex couples; if they are not happy to conduct the wedding then they should direct the couple to someone who will. Just like doctors who…

I’m thinking of going into hibernation.

Bah Humbug!

I can see how all those options must somehow seem so second best.

ML, I have always valued your aptitude for empathy.

Very impressive.

Go on admit it – you used to be the Chair/manager/head honcho in a club like this real life.

I’m afraid that, having been the younger sibling, I never quite got the hang of authority (Wordsworth Minor at School, Cambridge instead of That Other Place,…

The Joseph Barrow or, more recently, Wesley Snipes font is not compulsory, but has become a convention among some the more corporate members.

But as gentlemen, we pride ourselves on masculinity without machismo. We do make allowances for some of the more Outward Bound types.

Watching her moving around is inspiring. I am also amazed (and impressed!) that the surgical team did such wonderful job the very first time they did such a complicated procedure.

Apologies for stating that Kate was being cared for by the NHS in my previous posting. King Edward VII’s Hospital Sister Agnes is a private hospital.

Despite the condemnation of the tastelessness of the Australian radio show, rather than everyone having sympathy for the hospital and its staff, the press immediately called for action. In…[Read more]

I understand that the NHS Trust involved was “supporting” the member of staff.

A breach of confidentiality is gross misconduct and can lead to a member of staff being sacked, as well as a referral to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), which can result in removal from the register.

Public servants appear to be public enemy number one at the…[Read more]

Yes where are Gaz and Eddie?

People do tweet. I have a Twitter account.

By the way the past tense of tweet is twat, or is that the name for someone who tweets?

Apologies and final long posting on this subject.

Was just trying to make a complex point in a difficult area, rather than directly disagreeing with others as such.

I honestly believe that we are failing people in too many ways, and the more cases of “we’ll do something if more people come forward” I hear, the more worried I am. Serial…[Read more]

The concerns I am expressing here are actually less about the accused and more about the effect on the victims.

No matter what other allegations there are, each case still has to stand or fall by its own merits, and cases brought against serial criminals fail for lack of evidence (the Yorkshire ripper was found guilty ten times, but not guilty…[Read more]
