    People take up doing things for the good of others and voluenteering to run childrens clubs etc.

    The 2 day work week is greated with huge success and profitability actually increases compared to a 5 day week

    Criminals get made to work a 6 day week as punishment for crimes.

    Ooops, did i say all that out loud

    What??? you mean you'd give 'em a day off!!!!!! serious offenders have to work 7 days a week doing nasty jobs like clearing up poo in care homes

    And for light offenders they can go around doing everyones housework so no-one has to do that either

    Yeap

    It's been an ever so "cracking" day since I found out a mate broke his neck in 2 places on Saturday/Sunday morning after climbing his back gate to get in as he was locked out the front.

    He's in hospital now awaiting a few operations and they have given him a 50/50 chance for full feeling in his limbs again.

    I'll do it, just outline views and proof that tis an awesome idea. I think the thread had that within the first few posts though

    Some people use it properly though (not that this isn't). Like anti-bush/blair e.t.c. (did you see the thing about ethnic re-branding!)?

    Ah, Monday. Sun is shining, and I've just had my tea and toast in the garden, watching the dogs chase the ball. Right, lets get the water on for my bath.

    Hard life, but someone's got to do it.

    Its not all sweetness and light though - my favorite large bath towel was upstairs.

    EDIT - And there's only blue Radox left, I prefer a mix. Now I know how Jesus felt! Truely do I suffer!
