    Whilst thinking guys like you are a catch. I don't know who I pity more here.


    I believe the word is self-pity for not getting out and joining the fun

    I'm a woman so I'd look a bit out of place chasing a few young wans considering I'm not a lesbo.

    But live & let live is what I say. Most of them will get locked on a small amount of drink which means more dole money left over to buy shoe(s) :D

    the festivals for one night,ive been looking for a job since i was let go back in january,unless one miraculously appears by then i think im good.yes i can see how spending the first bit of money since january that ive had that wasnt bus money raised by flogging posessions on e bay could be so offensive

    Ah relax, I'm only havin' a go in the vein of some others on the thread. I know what it's like to be on the rock'n'roll, although it's been a while and hopefully will be a while. Go and enjoy the yacht race.

    my dole expenditures goes something like.

    60 a week rent
    20 a week bills
    10 085
    10 083 (internet dongle)
    60 for food
    8 euros on rolling tabaco
    12 on a book
    and the rest goes into my 3v card for clothing which I buy on line as it cheeper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,992 ✭✭✭✭partyatmygaff


    Boo
    My smooth sole just got scuffed on the pavement.

    Im talking about scuffed to discolouring.

    Let this be a lesson to all affluent Dole takers

    Concrete Pavement + Rain + New Leather Shoe sole = Bad idea.

    Exactly. What's the point in being so morbid and serious all the time. As old granny Pighead used to say "Laughter is the best medicine" Great advise. Not so great for six of her kids though who all died horrible prolonged deaths from influenza.

    At least they all had big smiles on their faces, huh?
