hiya fran, thank you for commenting, i know you'v had to put up with so much of this shite that its unbelievable i hope no-one takes this as me taking up some moral crusade or being ultimate p.c because if im honest i dont really believe in that whole thing.
this entire series of posts was born out of frustration and hoping people would pay attention a little bit cos its hard work to get people to actually give a fuck about things that dont impact upon them directly.
also i hope nobody finds the concept of equal opportunities bingo offensive. it started one day at work when we were talking about how our equal opportunities selection process can be erm shall we say overcompensatory.
anyway it struck me as an interesting way to judge how equal things really are in certain things. you should add a gay man, a lesbian and someone quite old to the card if your playing properly.

anyway sorry fran this reply is no longer a personal one im very sorry, hope you don't mind me opening it up a little sorry. good to hear from you anyway
