With the economy remaining sluggish, it is no longer a rarity to see news of closed shops, failed businesses and company administrations. But it isn't just businesses receiving final demands for payment - debt in the UK has become personal. It is said that most of us are only one or two pay packets from bankruptcy.
The fact is people can smell desperation a mile away. Even through a computer screen. An online dater may think they're are being smart that they're breaking the rules, but all everyone sees is a loser in a bar with a bag over their heads.
Many people are complaining that your hot baked goods tax is just another way of taking a swipe at the working classes, who apparently eat nothing but Greggs's produce. It's alleged that you've failed yet again to tax silly middle class fripperies and have chosen to fire your budgetary bullets at foods so common that you can't even remember eating them.
I know there are a lot of people who have problems with Octomom and her choices and I'm not saying I agree 100% with everything she's done or said, but I do think her stripping down for the cameras can be seen as a healthy experience for all involved.
Until the Other dad Who Collects and I got to know each other and formed an unofficial support group for dads Who Work Full Time Yet Also Pick Their Daughters Up From School (And Enjoy Doing So), we hovered awkwardly in isolation on the fringes of the playground.
In 1992 the lonely hearts section of the internet was dominated by the kind of socially inadequate wackadoodles that collect badger porn and stroke your bottom on public transport. Fast forward 20 years and these websites are fronted by attractive young professionals with long swishy hair and pearly white TV presenter smiles.
Now British summer time has officially begun... The days are getting longer and warmer. Possibly the odd barbeque or two is on the horizon? At the same time our palates begin the seasonal migration from the cosy winter nest of full bodied reds or richer whites to more lighter, cooler style wines.
Currently, if a couple do not want to wait at least two years before they can divorce, one will need to blame the other, and show that the marriage has irretrievably broken down by alleging that they have either committed adultery or behaved unreasonable.
There have been tales in Family Law circles recently of difficulties arising between ex-couples when one half works for an investment bank. Given the fabled salaries and bonuses of investment bankers, I found these stories a little odd, until one of my old clients got in touch with me last week.

You don't have climb Everest or eat a giant cactus for your cause (although either of those things would be awesome). It doesn't matter what your day job is, if you're driven enough to help and to make a change, then there's always, always something that you can do. Just think about it.
Occupy London has created an additional rod for its back: its acceptance of numerous rough sleepers and substance abusers in the camps. Like moths to a flame, they have found a place to stay that's better than a shop doorway.
As a society, at face value we do take the welfare of our children seriously. But scratch beneath the surface and it is not so clear. In 2011, almost 45,000 people across the UK contacted the NSPCC with concerns about a child - a 29% increase on the previous year. But 56% of people whose call to the NSPCC was so serious it needed further action said they had been concerned about the child for at least a month. Over a quarter had waited at least six months to report their concerns.

If you are working ridiculous hours to get things done, unfortunately, you only have yourself to blame. Go home when you are supposed to every night this week and see what happens. You might get a talking to by your boss, but I can guarantee that you won't lose your job.
"I don't like chardonnay"Sound familiar? What is it about this noblest of grape that people just don't like? As a varietal it still ranks amongst one of the biggest sellers in the UK, next to sauvignon blanc and now pinot grigio/gris.
People with mental illness die 20 years younger than average, often from preventable physical conditions - but it doesn't have be that way.
