Or do you mean omyes?

Unfortunately, no amount of money would solve my problems, at least not the deep rooted ones.

£83. Think I'll pass.

I was thinking, as I was posting the topic, that there is good and bad. My question really is, does the bad outweigh the good? It seems that generosity of some very wealthy individuals goes with doubt. What about the wealth of oligarchs and others with wealth to influence policy and direction of governments?

A bit late in my response, but as a fairly low level professional in the NHS, I entirely agree, even from a point of view from the frontline, out on the streets. It seems obvious to all of us involved in patient care that the elderly are treated very badly by the NHS in much the same way that MH is. It seems to be considered by Gov as a necessary burden but a burden nonetheless which soaks up money. As you say, with the correct and dedicated focus on how these sectors are important and directing treatment correctly, so much could be improved, financially and compassionately. Sadly, the NHS is becoming a victim of it's own success. As was mentioned, we are able to keep people alive for longer, even beyond what would have been a natural death 50 years ago, which clearly adds to both expectations and cost. It's probably right that we can do that, but surely there has to be a point where it becomes unsustainable for the money available?

Their powers are what they are. It's the use of those powers that is abhorrent.

Is it? It might seem obvious in these modern times but has it always been the same? Money and wealth can do good, but throughout history so much suffering and conflict is caused by the desire for money. Does wealth create true satisfaction? Most people would love to be rich, with no worries about being able to afford a nice lifestyle, but what does it really bring?

As a teacher or a student? Or a fan of Waterloo Road?

It's worse than that.

It's awful. Just a conduit to get... Well, we know what I'm getting at. I've no objection if there's actual talent on show. Like so many examples in all walks of life, the real talent is pushed aside in order to achieve other agendas. I know I'll get stick.

My fear is that, when Sir DA shuffles off this mortal coil, we'll get someone the likes of Chris Packham.

The Wheel is about as low as it gets. Then there's Strictly Come Dancing. And that's just Saturday evening.

Thornton's. Every time.

Quality Street, Coronation Street. Neither make me want to get involved.

And Mr HVB has managed to post a football thread in non-football topic. C'mon Harry, tell us how old you are. It might cut you some slack among the vipers on here.

this kid's actualllly abot that cantspell. I'm quite pleased as I haven't had a laff for a while.

Susan Whelan looks quite attractive in comparison?

Stupid, making this comment.

So you get someone in who does.

I could've said all that, myself. Meaningless rhetoric. Nothing positive. Dull and repetitive. I imagine that's how he comes across to the playing staff.

I agree. Not one player, (Vardy aside for sentimental reasons) that I actually feel good about, or that will leave me with a sense of gratitude for what they have done for us.

Hardly a game to inspire enthusiasm from either set of supporters.
