    Oasis Songs Top A Radio Poll

    Music died around the time the elder people in that age bracket, late 20s to early 40s, reached puberty, around 1989. :guitar2::guitar2: TBF most things were past their best by then, cinema, literature, art, journalism. It's all generic copying with little originality or creativity now. :whistle::D

    Ever Feel You've Had Enough?

    Malaka, you're not a teacher are you? Many are close to the edge. I'm sure it's true in other walks of life of course. Everyone seems to have it bad in Tory Britain.

    A Spender or Thrifty ?

    I am neither a spender nor thrifty. I have always earned more than I spend because I don't want most of the crap that is on sale. If I want it I find myself in the queue to pay and only then look at the price. If I don't want it it could be a fantastic bargain but I'm still not buying. Yet I...

    Well done to all of you in Coventry south west who voted Conservative. They have now closed your only boys school, which used to be a credit to the area. So much for parents choice. Wake up before the nasty party dismantle all local services for the sake of competition and efficiency saving...

    Housing in the UK

    I still have the letter from the building society announcing the mortgage interest rate of 15%, from 1990, I think. A scary thought.

    Adam Johnson

    A 15 year old cannot give consent to sexual activity. She is a child. In the eyes of the law she is an innocent victim...whatever she did he was the responsible adult and is guilty of grooming, kissing and one other sexual act, described as digital penetration in the papers. It also says she...

    Adam Johnson

    I also know a chap who was sentenced to 12 months for an offence involving only webcam contact with an underage girl. He persuaded her to undress on camera I think but he was 19 and she was 15. AJ will get at least 2 years, probably 4 or 5.

    Adam Johnson

    His partner could go to court to prevent him having access to their child and would be able to make a decent case as he is a convicted sex offender. I know someone who did this but didn't win only because the charges against her ex were dropped. However, her ex still has restricted access to...

    Adam Johnson

    No offence, mate but you need to join the rest of us in the 21st century. The views you express are excusing a crime in all the usual ways. He broke the law and will get his punishment. Given his age, fame, relationship status etc he deserves no sympathy. When he comes out he will still be a...

    The EU referendum

    I can't help thinking the EU needs Britain in to stay viable. If the EU collapses I am very worried about the consequences. The Balkans descends into chaos. Russia starts taking chunks of Eastern Europe. We've been there before and had a century of wars and cold wars. I know there is NATO etc...

    BTW the girlfriend had already finished with him. She went with him to court as a friend not a partner. So, she deserves no criticism as a gold digger IMO

    Things you like and dislike about your missus

    I think you are still in the anal stage. The females I live with have much better toilet etiquette I'm afraid.

    The revenant

    No, no, no. The most popular is not the best otherwise things like Dumb and Dumber would win Oscars and idiots would win talent contests! Oh wait ... The awards are chosen by experts. The masses have no taste. I find these awards shows good recommendations for what to see rather than the crap...
