Professional Footballers?
So we've seen recently several professional footballers convicted of serious crimes yet seem to be able to continue playing. Why? Adam Johnson is a convicted paedophile. There seems to be a campaign to find so called paedophile coaches going back decades. They never work with children again, quite right. I ask why the difference. Teachers, council workers etc. Lose their jobs if convicted of crimes, so how can footballers continue? They are very much role models for the young and are very privileged and well rewarded. Isn't it about time the FA had rules to bar convicted criminals from the game regardless?

Anti-social Scooter riders?
I do fear not being mobile. Living in a rural county where public transport is next to non-existent I worry that I ever won't be able to drive, but these folk on their Mobility Scooters!!
Have you seen them? They are 3 categories
They drive around with no thought to crashing in to people, leave countless accidents in their wake!
Yes this council/police are right they must be made responsible. There are laws and regulations and they should be enforced.
Have you seen them? They are 3 categories
- Fat Folk - who are just too heavy to walk - get OFF your scooter and get some exercise.,
- old dodderers - genuine frail old folk who need to get about and would not be able to use a car.
- oldish dodderers - who are the above but when they get a mobility scooter every one else becomes in visible!

Why buy water in bottles?
Why buy water in bottles?
It has always puzzled me why people buy "designer" water in bottles? In Our country we have the best public piped water in the world. Who would NOT drink fresh water from a tap?
Yet water costs a phenomenal amount in a bottle.
Is it environentally friendly to put water in bottles and ship it miles around the country?
Some say it should be banned, I do think there is a case for people having the right to buy water in bottles if say you're going camping/hiking and what about civil emergencies? WE keep some bottled water in case of emergency.We could be flooded and cut off from mains. We only buy the cheap supermarket brand. Besides when the bottle is empty refill it from the tap.
Also why is it so expensive in pubs? I ask for a jug of water in a restaurant and don't expect to pay.
Then there's soft drinks - often they are more expensive than beer! That is downright scandalous. WE are exhoted not to drink alcohol and certainly not if you're driving so why is a pint of coke" more than a pint of bitter - it should be pence!
In some supermarkets their own brand Cola is cheaper than bottled water so there, drink Cola!
ITS A RIP-OFF and should be illegal
