Sadly there is no alternative to anyone but the Tories - led by Theresa May - to take us out of the EU in style. All the other parties want a wishy-washy exit or none at all. Now Theresa May is being castigated for changing her mind about holding a snap election. Others say that she's being adaptable to a changing situation.

A polite way to ask someone to keep their hands to themselves...
by White Dove inwhat's a polite way to ask a man to keep his hands to himself while conversing in a group with you?.
this neighbor of mine and i were sitting in chairs on the deck with other people.. he always touched me whenever he said anything to me or i said anything to him.. it was as if he was using touch like an antenna to send and receive signals.. i didn't know what to do, so instead of risking embarrassment for us both, i did nothing but stand up and step away.. i stepped away after he attempted to caress my hamstrings on one leg.. *shudder*.
wonder why 60+ year old men think that a woman being nice to him means she's hot for him.. also wonders why it's only the smoking, beer guzzling, scrawny, bony, and smelly old men who do that.. .

I'm in my 70's and women are always hugging and kissing me. Some have said I have the softest most kissable lips they've ever encountered.
This usually happens on a Saturday evening in my local pub around midnight.

Cirencester Congregation UK: My story
by erbie indear all,.
i have been a member here for some years although mostly in the background.
many of you have bravely shared your own experiences and i am very grateful for that but i have never been open about my own experience.. nevertheless, i would be very grateful to those of you who would now take the time to read about my own personal journey from the jw religion and the circumstances that caused me to abandon that way of life and how i landed up where i am.

I'm afraid that many couples who leave the JW's will indulge in "flings". One or both parties may be tempted. My ex and I both indulged ourselves disgracefully when we left. The problem is the old forbidden fruit maxim, plus one's reason for not having an affair while a JW is the fear of disfellowshipping.
Once you're out it takes time for one's own real sense of morality to take the place of the WT brainwashing that we mistook for right behaviour. Some couples do survive and stay married, but I get the impression that the majority will split up. It's only when you're out that you start to mature and grow emotionally. I went through my adolescence in my late 20's!

Disfellowshipped people are dead people?
by snugglebunny inskimming though my iphone earlier today i came across a fb post - which i now can't find!.
basically it was a claim that a gb member had stated that associating with a disfellowshipped person was akin to sleeping next to a corpse.. so obviously i'm curious as to whether anyone else has come across this..

I know that a disfellowshipped person who is attending meetings is bypassed when the memorial emblems are handed around. I guess that's pretty indicative of JW's esprit de CORPSE....

Yep, it's a Kia Soul. Mine is the Searcher variant. It's top of the range with a full leather interior and all the bells and whistles. Plus the extra large wheels and roof rails. It seems very nippy.

National Insurance Contribution UK
by MrHappy ini just discovered that i have gaps in my national insurance contributions for the years i spent in bethel!
i remember signing a vow of poverty and a tax document declaring my volunteer missionary status but i don't remember them ever telling me that i would have to pay my own ni contributions out of my allowance.
i am wondering about all those who have been asked to leave bethel in the last year and who are behind on their contributions.

Stan's right. You need 35 years worth. If you have less, then you may be able to claim pension credit on retirement which will top up your pension to around £235 per week assuming you are claiming as a couple.
