!, Yes

2. No

I agree driving is a privilege and a potential lethal weapon when combined with drugs or alcohol or both,

However also a long suffering tax payer, often resenting my taxes on those I consider more than able to support themselves are we suggesting that genuine people needing a hand up be penalised for the dismal minority that rort the system, there are genuine cases where through no fault of their own people find themselves made redundant often a result of a failed company or enterprise (telecom in Australia for example, Westpac banking corporation etc etc) these people and there are many hundred....probably more suddenly find themselves unemployed and requiring the help of our welfare service to whom they themselves have paid their taxes to as well, should we now suggest they go through further trauma not to mention the demeaning embarrassment of submitting a urine sample to qualify for the meagre payment which is way below the poverty line for short term existence, It's usually very difficult for these people to even walk in and ask for help, they need help, not further obstacles and soul destroying tests, to hell with those that do abuse our system, but there are many genuine people out there needing help   , they deserve it 

They can be, but it's also good to be able to distinguish good conversation from endless, often centred rambling, which can become very tiresome, being a good listener or demonstrating an interest in others is commendable, balance is the key

Congratulations to you both, hope you are forever happy xx

Not always, technology has in media, amongst other places made me doubt the authenticity and integrity of some material, even though I'm often looking straight at it, how do we know anymore    what is genuine and what has been altered or enhanced

Okay, I give in, why?

Obviously a much loved pooch, she is indeed beautiful

I try to look on the bright side, but find it difficult sometimes, I have decided to make sure I do just that from today on

For me intimicity means trusting someone with your views, thoughts, fears and hopes, someone that you are close enough and comfortable enough to discuss your inner most feelings with, your problems, someone that will listen without judgment

Not sure, but this would be fine, also good health and a close family, family is important to me

They were great photo's, I've seen snow, but nothing like that ever, glad you and the pets are safe, hopefully warm with a good strong drink, or at least a warm one
