  1. Month a baby is born 'suggests what career they will have'

    I don't think for one minute that the month you are born means anything much. A friend of mine was born in January and she was a Teacher, not any kind of debt collector. Her husband was born in December and he was a Solicitor - not a Dentist. I don't think the report gives that much...

  4. Hospitals Inquiry Into 'Usual Rubbish' Advert

    You could be right. It still shouldn't have been said though, regardless who said it or what their opinions on the matter were.

  8. Hospitals Inquiry Into 'Usual Rubbish' Advert

    A Liverpool hospital trust has launched an inquiry into how a job advert stating the usual rubbish about equal opportunities was published. The advert, on the Royal Liverpool & Broadgreen University Hospital's website, invited applications for a trainee anaesthetist...
  9. Police Should Wear Uniforms To / From Work

    I'm not sure if it's the same for police over here, I'll have to try and find out.

    Yea, he plays more forum games than I do !
  11. Bolivia Bans Motorised Transport For A Day

    Don't they walk on footpaths over there then ! I can't see it being any worse than trying to get through other traffic, especially on busy roads.
  12. PC monitor delivers pop-up health tips

    Oh Gosh - I'd better not get one of those, it would be popping up messages on piece work - I'd probably work it to death inside a week the length of time I spend on here and elsewhere !
  13. UK's summer 'coolest since 1993' says Met Office

    Some forums have their shoutbox at the 'top' of the index page, probably for the same reason
  18. Chit Chat Zone

    You seem to do a lot of cooking outdoors Jazzy, don't you have a cooker indoors ! (just kidding) There does seem to be something about eating outdoors, food somehow seems to taste better.
  19. One-in-five teachers 'physically attacked' at school

    Can you imagine how he behaves at home ! That student is typical of the type that have no respect for authority. All this 'don't touch' stuff being aimed at teachers and parents is, in my opinion, at least partly to blame for this kind of behaviour.
