For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.As of the end of this month, everyone over the age of 60 gets free BUS travel throughout the whole of Scotland. I received my pass the other day, but I'm not sure whether I want to travel on a bus to Kent or Cornwall, (beautiful though they are) at 67 years of age. The cost of b&b would be prohibitive, I think, but I suppose the thought is there.
What doesn't surprise me, however, is this old stuff about Scots in the government. The story about copper wire shows the intellectual level of certain AB members. I assumed the idea of the News topic was a sensible discussion of the news, and not for the schoolboy humour of some of our more childish members. Try again bluejonjo?
Why is it that now Scotland has its own devolutionised Government, (its own bills for education and local taxation) that so many Scotish MP's still vote in matters that have no relevance to Scotland? (I'm talking about the top up fees bill)
gary baldy...very tongue in cheek.
more on education?????. When and how....in some future date the spending on per pupil in state schools will match those of spending by private schools. in the future, unspecified date and with no evidence of where the money is coming from. In the future at one unspecified date the spending will match that of private schools today. so in 2011 it will match the spending of 2006. Oh you are a gullible lot arent you.
Free bus travel for pensioners........read free local bus travel for pensioners. No you cant go from kent to Scotland for free.You gullible people. Put that in your pipe and smoke as you pay the increased prescription charges.
i can go on and on....
People over 60 will have free local bus travel from 1st April this year and anyone over 60 does not pay for prescriptions anyway.
As for property that has soared in value ....try telling that to some young people who cannot get a foot on the property ladder and haven't a hope of ever owning a home .
Povemeister, I must say I really admire your defence of bluejonjo. Perhaps you might reread his original posting and then look up racism in your dictionary. If this sort of joke (I'm assuming you found it very funny) were to be told about certain other nationalities, he would be accused of racism. I enjoy a GOOD joke, even at my own expense, and if you think my remark about his intellectual level was so insulting, I wasn't even going to mention his invention of the word "devolutionised"?
I can see you are a new member and if you think that I was insulting, you aint seen nothing yet.
