I have to admit that it pretty funny. Very, very sad though, especially at that age!
 
Maybe they messed about with her pension??

I wonder if she had a buggy waiting outside for her as she fled, perhaps a getaway driver? LOL
 
I actually feel sorry for her. When you live in a society that wants you to spend spend spend and at the same time give you very little to live on, then pound you with taxes and fees of every kind, what can you expect?

I don't know how uk is but US is debt based society, everyone lives from paycheck to paycheck and your average American is in debt up to their eyeballs.
 
she did it on thursday mornin!!!

all she had to do was wait till the weekend for her pension collection :p ooo did i cross the line there :embarrass
 
:salamext:

ROFL!!!!!!! Sorry this is bare funny lol. And chacha, yeh u did cross it :ooh: :D
 
:sl:

I wonder why she did it.

We shouldn't be so quick to judge, you know....

Not that I'm saying what she did was acceptable...it wasn't.

But we don't know the circumstances that could have led her to make this decision.

Maybe it's our pity that she deserves more than anything. Maybe.

:w:
 
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that anyone did judge her.

Just saying that we shouldn't, y'know.

Sorry, my bad!
