YABU

And I have also done a good deed by answering an unanswered message

lesley33 · 05/03/2012 15:15

It has been a long time since there was one.

Kendodd · 05/03/2012 15:15

All people on benefits are scroungers

thought i'd start

i'm on carers allowance

CreepyWeeBrackets · 05/03/2012 15:32

My free goat arrived today and I was looking forward to boasting about it
Sad

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 15:36

You got a free goat? How can benefit scroungers get THAT?

DID THE GOAT GET A FREE COUNCIL FLAT TOO?

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 15:37

I hope you are not thinking of selling the goat milk and not declaring the income? Shock

BigGirlInASmallWorld I'm a pensioner and I receive a widow's pension as well. How much? Nothing because it's included in the pension.

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 15:42

Oh no Rule :(

It is a jokey thread. My carers allowance is £55 per week :(

PomBearAtTheGatesOfDawn · 05/03/2012 16:01

The goats ate the thread? those buggers will eat anything was in the Goat Club at school, and we had real goats!

Agincourt · 05/03/2012 16:03

Did anyone read Katie Prices 'insightful' column in yesterday's Sun on Sunday? surely there must be a thread on that?

(it was in my works staffroom before I get chastised)

Voidka · 05/03/2012 16:05

I saw on This Morning that 2500 people are on out-of-work benefits for being obese.

I cam on here expecting to see a thread, but there isnt one thank God

Agincourt · 05/03/2012 16:06

was that in Blackpool alone? Wink

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 16:45

BRB

RabidEchidna · 05/03/2012 16:47

here are the bloody goats again

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 16:51

Rabid that thread was hilarious. Grin

RabidEchidna · 05/03/2012 17:07

I am so sad I book marked it, I thought it was so funny

Triggles · 05/03/2012 17:39

I actually saw a goat at a farmer's market the other day and told my DH "OMG THERE'S my goat! I wondered where it was..." Grin Poor DH. Truly puzzled, he was.

CreepyWeeBrackets · 05/03/2012 17:43

I'm not even on real benefits - DH and I get Shock tax credits.

But it's too late now. The goat butted the 98 million-inch plasma T.V and we have drowned it in the hot-tub had to re-home it Angry

carernotasaint · 05/03/2012 17:48

This Morning = the television equivilant of Closer magazine.

Synyster · 05/03/2012 17:51

Katie price is making a record, she will be "singing"

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 17:57

Creepy my laptop had a wash, with hot tea!

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 05/03/2012 17:58

On the other thread there is a picture link of goats in trees

Kendodd · 05/03/2012 19:55

I have heard of a couple living in a massive house in central London, neither of them have ever worked, four kids who have hardly ever worked either! Taxpayers foots the bill for all of them, fancy holidays all over, flash cars, the lot.

Hmm Would you start a thread bashing disabled children? Why start a thread bashing people who live off benefits? Don't knock someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes!
