Has this blogsite died a natural death ??
Just checking!
Methinks not a natural death.Perhaps a slight case of rigor mortis with caution as the watchword.
Hi 
. What a great initiative. I work at a retirement village in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and one of our 97 year old residents is one of the most computer savvy people I have ever met . He often teaches some of the other residents how to email and download pics and info' etc ... one often sees him with an eager little huddle of fellow residents surrounding him whilst he tells them, "Nowadays, using paper and stamps is called 'Snail Mail'!" (which inevitably leads to an awed "ooooooooh!" from his audience).
This seems the most appropriate place to post this.
I went to the conference of the NPC,
the pensioners Parliament at Blackpool by the Sea.
The minister came to give us his view,
there’s no more cash for folks like you.
You’ve never had it so good was his outrageous claim,
the cry from the floor was shame shame shame.
Pensioner credit is here and its going to stay,
it doesn’t really matter what the pensioners say.
He can’t understand why we make a fuss,
you now all get free rides on your local bus.
We paid for our pensions, was the cry from the floor.
why cant you help us, you paid for a war.
Turner reports this year on the pension position
the government wont say if it will really listen.
A future that’s fair for one and all,
is labour`s motto and rallying call.
There’s nothing fair for pensioners today,
look at the council tax and what we pay.
Our claim we feel is not overrated,
a fair share of the wealth that we created.
Things have improved since ninety seven,
but we need a lot more before we’re in heaven.
