Re: The 'hidden hunger' in British families
 
I got the impression the article was highlighting the charity and how, should a family come into desperate needs, they could reach out to them.
Bear in mind, a proud couple who were trying (despite losing their family home and means of transport) to sell their car and their house STILL had no money while they were trying to do this. They didn't just come to the decision they would sell their property and car and then everything suddenly became alright in a snap. They were still struggling to feed their kids and needed some help.

Does the EU still handout excess stocks of beef (in cans) dried milk, butter, etc?

Last time I enquired about it, the system was being run in the UK by a church group that didn't seem to pass stuff out except to their own congregation.

there you go. am I now allowed to make a joke about something which won't give you reason to post such a big amount over something so small?

Maybe you should have kept it in the matchbox it came in then.;)

I have not seen many nigh on fifty grand cars frequenting the JS, well full size ones anyway, you live in a dream world mate. I'd hazard a guess the RRS is probably a five speed push-bike with a bald tyre.:)
