But this generation, or their parents more like, seem especially wet. I was glad to get away and hated spending money I didn't have on unnecessary travel. ETA: I would have gone abroad rather than back here. Edited September 8, 2020 by pongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure your parents were delighted you didn’t come back either, would have had to buy another pound of dripping & loaf for the journey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unlikely that I am going to choose to have children. An only child is clearly unacceptable and currently I would struggle with the school fees for two.

That’s usually the tried and tested excuse of overweight soap dodgers who can’t get a bird. At least if they’re heterosexual that is. I’m not sure it’s an issue for most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
