OSW: How on earth did you work that out ?

Back in the 70/80's it was A$4 to the pound. Considering it was 70/80's that was bloody good money. In fact that's good money now for a lot of people. Except Lawyers maybe. ;-

It was a lot dearer to live in London in those days. Rent & food were very expensive & still are. How did you find the quality of milk. I went to get milk one morning, came back with Full Cream milk when I poured it was thinner than our light milk. Apparently if we wanted Australian Quality we had to get "Breakfast Milk." Very dear.

Further confirmation that you have no idea of what sociology is, Jayb,

<<Pure Quackery. Reading works of Authors long dead, whose world was far different from the World today. Then applying those ideas now. No one is that stupid, surely.>>

Pure crap. If sociology is such quackery, then you might want to tell everyone involved in politics, medicine, law, marketing, urban organization, city development, homeland security, research co-ordination, project management, impact planning, etc, etc... that they’ve all been misled. Yes, despite over 150 years of research and the successful application of sociological theories - and the mountains of evidence to support it all - ol’ armchair expert over here, Jayb, apparently knows that it’s all just hokum.

No-one studies the works of long-dead authors, but there are long-dead authors who have provided demonstrably reliable perspectives from which the development, structure, and functioning of human societies may be analysed.

Here’s an idea: since you’re such an expert on this stuff, how about you pick a sociological perspective and educate us on how it is utilised nowadays and why that utilisation is of no use.

This should be fun.

All well out dated theories that the Modern World has to put up with. Bumbling's by Conservative old men who still thought the World was flat & God created the World in 6 days.

Welcome to the World of AJ.

SPQR,

Good one. Now we won't mention living in Ivory Towers, will we.

So you’ve got nothing then, Jayb?

I figured that’d be the case. Worse still, you’re not even embarrassed about it. Instead, you just repeat the same claim hoping that it’ll eventually mean something…

<<All well out dated theories that the Modern World has to put up with.>>

And yet you can’t provide a single example of any of them. Your knowledge on this subject is as existent as your videos, it seems.

Hi Again JAYB...

Hell, I'd apparently lived under the mistaken impression all these years, thinking I was very poorly paid ? It was back in 1969 ? I lived in Sinclair Road, W14 at the back of Olympia, in Shepherds Bush, in a comfortable Bed-Sit. paying about 12 quid a week (without utilities) I had this little slot meter in my room for gas, and another for electricity which worked fine for me. The place was full of girls, and being the only Aussie, well I was pretty well catered for, put it that way ! Again, I'm sorry for side-tracking this important Topic (again)?
