You have a lot to learn about people in the UK. Ladyhm had a disable husband and worked up to the end. Never once did Ladyhm complain.
Instead we have linda crying poor Ladyhm.
Ladyhm spinning in her grave with embarrassment, I know I would be.
Linda get the message, we’re not victims.
You just proved you’re an attention seeker and didn’t know her that well.
Ladyhm would have hated this thread. She wasn’t one of self-pity or sentiment. Its why none of us started one.
Naaa they both still pee standing up
Hell yes they do
And you’d think they clean there finger nails too……. especially after were they’ve been
Just H I think your a bit off track
RNLI do send staff overseas to help train people. There open about it and done it for years.
See:

Its not much different to the London’s fire services work and there tax payer funded
See:
And even the NHS
See:
Over all I’d say the RNLI actives overseas are inline with our fire services and NHS.

You mean John & Lewis
After 5 people drown over the weekend…..I’d through I’d take a few mins to talk about water safety.

Waters a real killer, drink too much and you’re dead.

People have drowned in the bath too.
All sailor’s know the sea is out to kill them….its why they don’t take risks and do take precautions.
So I’m going to tell you something that’s odd and not changed since we crawled out of the swamps. Most people drown within 200 meters of land. There not miles out to sea on a sinking ship in a storm………there trying to cool off or rescue pets in rivers, lakes or on the beach.
The problem was so bad they came up with the Manby mortar around 200 years ago. They were only replaced once inshore lifeboats became more common.

I know you cant watch kids 24 hours a day or keep dogs out of water. You cant keep a water rescue kit on you while walking along a river bank with the love of your life too. But you can limit the risks.
Make your kids do a water safety course. Most local councils run them.
For adults there free online
And put your pets in a lifejacket. They don’t cost much and you can find them easily online or in pet shops.

And dont be tempted be a rescuer unless you’re trained to do it. Waters a serial killer and always looking for its next victim.
