Why do we have peanut allergies?
We never used to when I were a lad?
Why do we have so many Fatties and Wheezers?We never used to when I were a lad?
In my school days we had about 4 fat lads.. spread between the different Houses - ideal for rugby prop-forwards or goalies.
Likewise, one asthmatic per class.

Quite right, I belong to the ‘climb trees, build dens / tree houses, get cuts and grazes, eat dirt, learn why eating dirt, and not worrying about cuts and grazes, isn’t a great idea the hard way’ generation. I very rarely get anything like colds and the such like. I think there is far too much paranoia about stuff, of late. Probably driven by companies who make cleaning stuff.
I don't think anyone would argue otherwise.It's the fact that they expect everyone else to fund their 'blissful' lifestyle.

I was reading about why there is such a prevalence of autoimmune diseases in first world countries over third world, and it looks like we are just eating too clean. We live in bleached homes. I actually think if you have a family all chemicals should be banned, use natural only, it is getting ridicoulus and end result is not what we expect...

I am not against benefits at all, I grew up with a single mother who relied on benefits (she also worked hard 5 days a week) but people who can work should work. You shouldn't be able to choose not to work and get paid for it. They should be for emergencies and those physically unable to work.

Charles knew his partner was being unfaithful with one of his neighbours when she came home one evening with blue stains on her knees and buttocks and splinters in her scalp.I like the fact you can cater for the voyeur if you purchase the optional shed roof ladder

This seems to be the "in thing" these days if you look on FB marketplace, knocked up by some mediocre handyman with his cordless Ryobi. Utter council st.GOATever said:

I agree with this philosophy as well, I grew up doing exactly that and I rarely get colds etc. What I don't agree with is someone who thinks "F*** it, I don't want to work full time, so I won't, others can fund my lifestyle."Steamer said:
