OMG!!!A baby has miraculously survived after his pram rolled off a railway platform in front of a train.
The six-month-old baby boy had only a cut to his head after the accident in Melbourne, Australia.
The train was slowing down as it came into the station but dragged the baby's pram about 35 yards along the tracks before coming to a halt.

Why didn't the silly tart put the brake on?
I bet she has the nerve to try and sue the railway company now.

Hi Raymond, my boyfriend (see that, I said boyfriend!!! ) just showed me that... OMG, that is a heartstopping moment isn't it?!
|
Raymond
|
Even though she was a silly cow, can you imagine what must have been going through her head?

I had a similar thing happen to me once.
A woman left the brake off her pram and it rolled into the road right in front of my car.
I lost count of the number of swear words I knocked on her door to give to her disturbing the chat she was having with her friend.
Obviously she didn't do it on purpose but I can tell you it was a real heart stopping moment.

the mother was a mess hysterical while the bub didn't even get a scratch.. don't think she will sue Raymond its not a big thing here sueing
these things happen with prams people need to wake up .... we are responsible for our children..

One thing is for sure.
She will never live it down but the baby will seem vasly more precious to her from now on.
|
Raymond
|
But you see it all the time.
I have lost count how many times I have seen these dopey girls strolling along chatting on their mobile phones while their kids are running along near the road.
They really do need a slap.

Scott

that is shocking. i hope the baby was ok. i no what you mean tho raymond. i see people with their kids all the time and they seem to have no control or care whatsoever. when i have kids i will make sure as much as possible that no dnager comes to them
|
Raymond
|
You want kids???
|
Scott
|
Yes of couse i do. i want at least 3. don't you?
|
Raymond
|
I honestly couldn't think of anything worse.
|
Raymond
|
I do hope this isn't going to be our first argument.
|
Scott
|
no of course not. we'll discuss it later
|
Raymond
|
LOL. Ok.
|
david hobbs
|
Now I am confused!!!!!
|
Raymond
|
Why so?
|
david hobbs
|
Well babies don't come from Sainsburys do they and I thought that Scott was gay.
Is he planing to adopt or hold his breath and think of England?
|
Raymond
|
I'm sure he'll do what most Mary's do when they start feeling broody, either get a cat or fine a couple of nice fertile Lezzers.

Gay people actually want children?? doesn't that kind of defeat the point? i'm just trying to understand, so sorry if i appear rude, but how the hell does that work?? doesn't being gay or a lez kind of make having children void?? seeing as you need the opposite sex rather then the same sex??
confused i am

I have many gay friends that have children... was a lovely photo in the baby column of the paper yesterday of two proud fathers..and their new born baby... it is very much the norm in Australia.. but then our gays have been allowed to marry for years .. you Brits are so behind the times
|
Raymond

Well, to be honest, I've always considered one of the perks of being a 'theatrical' person was you don't have to spend your life being surrounded by the screaming little brats.
My time is my own, my money is my own and I come and go as I please. And I want it to stay that way.
Obviously not all the homosexualists agree with me.

desiring to be a parent has nothing what so ever to do with your sexual preference ... its just that not everyone has realised that yet

Oooooooh! Get her!

i've always wanted a family. even before i knew i was gay and had girlfriends i always said i want a big family. i dont see why that should have to change just because i'm gay. i earn good money, pay my tax, don't break the law and try to be helpful to people. why should that mean i shouldn't have something that straight people take for granted just because i'm gay?
|
david hobbs
|
I think that the question is this.
Do you intend to adopt or father children yourself?
|
Scott
|
to be honest i havent really thought that far ahead yet. of course i would like to have my own children but for obvious reasons that may not be possible. my best friend said that if she isnt married by the time she's 35 she'll carry my child for me. i doubt that will happen though. i suppose it depends on how much money i earn as i get older. i will not even think about having kids until i can pay for them and support them well. also, i won't be thinking about it until i'm in a very stable relationship. one thing i do think is important is for kids to have two parents. it's too much of a big job for one person anyway. it wont be something i will just do. it will be something thats very well planned and controlled and any kids that come out of it will be loved and cherished by me and my family. most kids today should be so lucky

you sound very sensible in your approach to fatherhood Scott. and I happen to seriously believe that Raymond. yes Raymond would make an excellent Dad.
|
Raymond
|
Well that's something we're NEVER going to find out. I am absolutely determined that I will NEVER, EVER burden myself or throw my life away on having little brats around me. EVER.
|
Waffle King
|
But Raymond, if you had kids in your image, you'd never be alone in the world again, and you'd all have so much fun!
|
Raymond
|
I wouldn't be alone Waff because I'd be in prison because I would end up killing them.
Why anybody with an ounce of sensibility would want to have those whining, screaming, ungrateful little f*ckers around them 24/7 is quite beyond my level of reasoning.
|
Waffle King
|
they'd only be ungrateful if you breed them to be, pedigree is what it's all about mate, you raise your kids to be brats, they'll be brat, raise them well, they'll be good kids, personally, cant wait to have a son i can take to the football when he's 16, never gunna happen cos i don't have the necessary equipment to produce sperm, but still, be nice

You can have mine if you want it. I swear I will never change my mind on this one. No matter what.

the thing about life is you never know when or if you are going to become single... so if you want children you really have to be prepared to raise them on your own :)

spoke like a true sole parent :)))
|
Raymond
|
I agree with you EG on that one.
I happen to disagree with gays having children anyway, either single or in a relationship.
|
evergreen
|
i known you do Raymond.. and I know a couple of gay friends going through this drama in their relationship right now.. one wants kids the others thinks it is wrong.. what can you do? such a huge thing to differ on (I also have some straight couples going through the same drama )
|
Raymond
|
Simple. Either one has to give in or they should seperate.
It is a big thing for a lot of couples (gay or straight).
There's still this out-dated notion in society that people aren't 'whole' unless they've spat out a few kids, and unfortunately it's starting to creep into the gay community.
Some people just do not want kids. Why should anybody be made to feel in any way 'incomplete' unless they've bred?
Why should it be considered wrong if a person chooses not to have children?
|
evergreen
|
no one can make you feel anything ...
I don't think there is anything wrong with not having children...
oo can just imagine my life without my 3 guys... living it up, all the money to me, traveling the world over no fixed address lol hmm doesn't sound too different really and this way I get lots of hugs n love and spat and pushes.. hahah
|
Raymond
|
Well at least you can see the benefits of not having children, and some of us want to keep those benefits.
Hugs and kisses? That's not high on my list of important things anyway.
|
Scott
|
why are you so anti children raymond?
|
Raymond
|
I'm not 'anti-children'. If other people feel the need to breed then that's fine.
Just as long as I don't have to pay for them and just as long as they keep them away from me there's no problem.
|
Scott
|
what if you were in an ltr and your partner said he wanted children. what would you say?
|
Raymond
|
Like I said above, we would have to either seperate or one of us would have to give in.
And guess who'd be the one who wouldn't give in?
|

Weren't you???

No sweating at all. I never sweat. I'm too cool for sweat.
