OK this comment is therapy to quell my anger, so I don't really care if anyone wants to join in. I have just heard that Quentin Davies has just defected from Conservative to Labour. What a major coup for Labour, what a...

bananamanuk Hi there thanks for your message, I have to say that venting my thoughts and frustrations as I did, was really therapeutic and enjoyable. It's the first time i've done it. I am quite a politically minded person myself but respect and understand why others like...

Do you flirt to tease or flirt to please? If you see someone you like in a bar, club or even on line do you brazenly flirt with them? Is it just a bit of fun to you or do you take it seriously? Do you like the thrill of the chase...

bananamanuk Hi there, thanks for your comment. I think a sense of humour is a great ice breaker too. I guess flirting depends how out going you are to some extent. I find that I can flirt in a friendly/ funny way with people at work or whatever, it doesnt' really mean...

bananamanuk Hi Plunt, thanks for your comment, I really did go off on one with my reply yesterday didn't I!?! I have a reasonable knowledge of the British system because I based my university dissertation around rail transport on a particular section of the UK railways,...

OK, from the outset I would like to say that I am a generous person, and very caring and compassionate. However, I tend not to give my mum presents for mothers day, or gifts for my dad on fathers day. I can't help feeling that...

bananamanuk I kind of get the feeling here that most people are of the opinion that it's not wrong, and that as long as there's love and appreciation for parents then thats most important. Otherwise it's down to personal choice. I have bought cards and things in the past,...

bananamanuk maybe that's my problem, being a guy LOL. But seriously, I do understand what you mean, I suppose a lot of guys are a bit more cynical about things like this. I totally agree that Christmas is just a commericalised opportunity as well.

Are you allowed to chat on your cellphone while you are at work? At my department, our supervisor strongly emphasizes that no one gonna chat on phone while working. You can do so during the break time or so.

I don't get any kind of sick or vacation pay. If I don't work, I don't get paid. I got a cold and got grief from my coworkers for coming to work sick. I wasn't very sick, but I was sick. A couple of them even said that they will...

bananamanuk well it would be pretty silly of people to blame you if they became sick, sickness, colds, flu etc are airborn, some will affect everyone, some affect noone, some affect some and not others. If they are that worried then they should get flu vaccinations. How...

bananamanuk Well i probably drink too much, we all have outlets. The thing about smoking is that yes, it's a bad habit, but it's not something that you can control easily because it's addictive and nicotine is a drug, so it takes a heck of a lot of will power to whene...

bananamanuk I don't know if that's a bad habbit or not, that just sounds to me like trying to put off studying until the last moment, I was similar in a way, well preparing for exams at least. There are always 101 reasons to do something else other than revision.

bananamanuk Wow, maybe my question wasn't in vein, thank you for the advice. I should have said that in the replies i've posted before I've always tried to quantify my response or at least extend the questions to try and add to the debate. I didn't know it was in direct...

bananamanuk I think that's quite sad actually that you used to enjoy a particular subject matter but because of the negative comments and discussions going on that you felt the need to give it up. In any other form of life that could be construed as bullying, i.e making...
