(V): im sick and tired of being told i cannot wish ppl a Happy Christmas anymore has it may offend it will always be Christmas in my eyes and wishing ppl a Happy Holiday dosnt mean the same in anyone eyes
Artful Dodger: am i right in thinking just before Bush went the USA was very close to being bankrupt if thats the case whats happened since that they suddenly can find this money
Ämne: Re:The Dems are crooks, liars, and swindlers. And man of the Repubs aren't far behind. They all need to be replaced!
(V): but the point ppl are making to you yes we all love our countries but you go overboard saying we dont have nasty things happening in fact were no better or worse than any other country in the
(V): oh wow thats a first i knew something you didnt
ive known about it for long time has i used to do the old ppls bungalows where my mother lived when i visited
from what i remember being told the bins are suppose to be stocked at start of October until they removed at the end of March my council is really good at things like this they refill them has soon has someone tells them they need doing
but of course has in rest of life you get the morons you use the salt for there own purpose ie there drives etc
Artful Dodger: but its the high flying lawyers who are really to blame and the silly jurors who back these claims
ive been reading so many in the last hour but this one i thought takes the biscuit..lol
What is illiteracy worth in Ohio? about 8 million!
In September 1988, two Akron, Ohio-based carpet layers named Gordon Falker and Gregory Roach were severely burned when a three and a half gallon container of carpet adhesive ignited when the hot water heater it was sitting next to kicked on. Both men felt the warning label on the back of the can was insufficient. Words like “flammable” and “keep away from heat” didn’t prepare them for the explosion. They filed suit against the adhesive manufacturers, Para-Chem. A jury obviously agreed since the men were awarded $8 million for their troubles.
(V): and i think your talking outta ya ass again when claiming it wont be hard to prove in a court of law over councils gritting pavements they get round to it AFTER they get the roads moving again
show me one case where it happened cause ive heard of NONE
(V): there is a massive difference in pointing out there mistakes to them than seeking your day in court IMO
its all to easy to bend the rules for one falling on a pavement and claiming damages i know at least 3 ppl who have had other accidents and then gone out and found a raised paving slab and got money from the council
Artful Dodger: heres another stupid one for you luckily it was thrown out of court and the defendant picked up the bill One idea would be to adopt the “loser pays” system used in the United Kingdom and most of Europe to deter frivolous lawsuits. For example, in England last fall, a patient, who sued his doctor for $350 claiming the doctor had given him a cold during an examination, was ordered to pay almost $1,500 in costs after his case was thrown out of court.
(V): And from what I remember of my law classes at college, if someone breaks a leg, etc on the paths then the council is liable and can be sued. I remember this as my tutor sued the council over lack of maintenance regarding a broken paving slab that resulted in her breaking her ankle... she won.
i think were talking about very different issues here firstly falling on a pavement due to lack of maintenance is alot easier to prove has all you need do is take a pic of offending pavement and a hospital report and most councils pay up because they dont want the aggro of going to court but theres still a lot of ppl who will do nothing and put it down to bad luck
geesh you keep telling everyone how much better the UK is from the rest of the world yet if im reading you right your planning to sue your local council for not gritting a pavement IMO if ppl start doing that we be even more in line with Americans who sue for any little thing
i think you find it very hard to prove in a court of law
(V): and i also remember a case where someone sued the householder because they had cleared the pavement outside there house and someone had slipped the next morning on the ice that formed overnight so its a no winner has far has im concerned
councils do grit round the homes of the elderly least they do in the NE
(V): but has every council in the country is facing major cuts its goes without saying that having salt spread on footpaths is way down the list surely its better spend on keeping the roads running free
i dont think clearing snow from footpaths is a good idea anyway unless said pavement is going to dry very quickly which is very unlikely with this cold weather because next day it be a skating ring twice has bad
Ämne: Re:still the same Jules no new evidence so he changes the subject
(V): geesh that's old news we knew that in April/May so has ive been saying for LAST 2 DAYS we still have NO new evidence on the subject all your ranting on about was disclosed to everyone in April/May
(V): here we go again changing the subject to suit yourself ITS POINTLESS trying to have a argument with you you either change the subject or you twist things round to suit yourself HAS PER NORMAL
(V): key words in that sentence UNDER SUSPICION funny how 9 months down the line he hasnt been charged and dont try and be clever everyone in the UK who gets a newspaper read the same flaming news DOH!!!
