Years ago in my 60s I had one of them wear you sent back a bit of you shit.
At the time this was limeted to people under 70.
BUT then the Govemnent extended to people up to 75 and I was given another one.
So UJ please explain how its a cut back when its extended to people over 70.
Bet I don't get a reply...if I do it will be a sneering one

Re: Irony of Ironies
Considering the man himself has said part of his problem has been made worse was lack of early testing it seems odd to ignore that completely. Poor man didn't stand a chance if his fear was so great he didn't do a test and the NHS has not offered them to younger people.| Thread Tools | |
