This is a question Terrible Parenting

My parents used to lock my brother, sister and I in the car while they went to the pub for a "quick one" after work. This quick one might last several hours, during which they would send bottles of Indian Tonic Water to us by way of refreshment.

On one particularly cold evening, bored stupid, we lit a small bonfire on the back seat of the car using the cigarette lighter and the contents of the glove box. We owe our lives to passing winos. (BTW: Please no more Maddie or Jesus gags, they've been done.)

I agree with some of your harsh endightment of the unemployed. Having been unemployed in the past for a while it is easy to become sucked into the 'government owes me attitude' and grab money where available for fripperies.

However, if you are earning £32 grand a year and can't afford satelite telly, then I suspect that you need to get thee to a financial advisor and sort your money out. It's only £21 pound a month and you can watch as much Spongebob squarepants as you like.

yipee!
