Assisted Passage.

[Bill]

anyone remember it. my parents toyed with it but declined the offer . i was gutted . i often wonder what life would have been like. the UK is a shit tip.

 

[snorky]

Sorry Bill, I thought this a thread about @dronefromsector7G 's gerbil.

I have not a clue.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

A mate in secondary school went in the early 60s. I always thought it was to get a new start from WWWS!

Wifey's family were going to do it, but the son (my brother in law) is disabled so they couldn't because of health care

Sounds like an euphemism for constipation.

Amazing how long that little fella can hold its breath.

I disagree about the UK being a shit tip
Certain areas definitely are, but there are huge swathes of beautiful countryside and coastline
I stayed just outside Banbury the other night and the next day drove through the Cotswolds to Malvern and the scenery was fabulous

I might not agree with either, or agree with both interpretations, something arse related, or helping a loved one in pain. That’s not important right now. I want in.

I do agree with assisted dying, it’s done through love, could be abused for money or some other reason you want rid of someone, ethical questions abound, but I draw the line at arse adventures, before I actually see the arse. Only fair. What am I, mental?

.......Through to the final, I thought we already had a dipper thread?

Vaseline used to be the go to for assisted passages untill some bugger put sand in it.;-)

There are tens of thousands of people who would love to live in the UK, but I understand what you mean

My dad's family went over in the late 60's. Had to go the long way round and spent 6 weeks on a boat because the Suez was closed over the 6 day war. One of my uncles got TB and was hospitalised for weeks when they finally landed in Perth.

They lived there for 6 or 7 years and were seemingly very happy but came back - ageing family back home I think.

When I was about 13 or 14 we went over on holiday and saw the houses my grandfather and his brother built. My uncle moved back 15 years ago, but to the east coast.

I think they were hamsters because they had smaller claws. Drone only realised they didn't have long tails like gerbils so you couldn't pull them out after he'd got two up there. He sent the third in to look for them

My mums sister and her family (3kids) went for a tenner, only ever came back for holidays and funerals, had a great life there, I was booked to go and visit her about 6years ago as she was poorly, unfortunately she passed away 6weeks before my flight, I cancelled it and got no refund, gutted I never got to visit her there as she'd came over for my wedding.
Mum's brother took his family to South Africa, again they stayed and made a good life there.

I think my mum would've done it but my old man was too set in his ways, worked at AVRO Woodford from leaving school to retirement, not a chance of him upping sticks.

my dad was the same . i don't think he had the tenner . we lived in poverty and even back then I knew going would have changed our lives.
