:gnthb:Yea must have been wind as he's full of hot air. :dh:

A general warning about this sort of thing. A company who have a legitimate reason to get in touch will normally know your name. Anything addressed to 'dear customer' (or even worse 'valued customer') should be treated as automatically suspect. Similarly genuine companies don't tend to make you...

Kandy- thanks for your reply. I DO have polycystic ovary syndrome (its a miracle that i've got 3 kids) and my thyroid is checked every 3 months with my regular bloods (cos of the lithium i take) and as far as i am aware, my blood sugar levels are ok. but my dad is diabetic (old age one) and my...

Have only just seen this posting today, Marley. I'm so glad that your friend is safe and it is heart-warming to hear of people still being pulled from the ruins alive. Yes, the people there are tougher than we are and I am sure that they will pick up and get on with their lives again quicker...

Hi Victoria Plum welcome back under you new Nom de Plum:hehe: (e)thanks for letting us know

My Dad had all sorts of uses for these envelopes, particularly in his greenhouse. In summer he'd pop a plant into a large envelope, give it a good water and go away for a couple of days without having to worry about watering it. In winter, he'd use them as 'insulation' for individual plants.

I've done what I can, but our building will be demolished when I've finished with it. Not enough roof space to put any more insulation in, wall cavities (timber framed building) filled with fibreglass matting, windows double glazed. E.ON quoted one price but I see that they have charged me a...

Glad to hear he is on the mend. All things pass-including bad times..................and gall stones.

What a ridiculous design, all that concrete - no way can that be carbon zero, why does it need to be so big for just for one person - I hope the planners show some common sense and throw it out. If ever there was an example as to why footballers are needlessly overpaid this is it.

A final message and thank you to all those who have taken the survey. The survey will be closing at the end of this month (February), so anyone eligible who hasn't taken it, please do, the more I get the more accurate the survey! Thank you again. Noel Thompson

I've always enjoyed Norman Rockwell prints. Have a few back in our attic at home in Canada that were hung on walls. Always used to get calendar each year as well. I think that it was possibly his illustrations that gave the expression 'a picture is worth a thousand words'......thanks for...

Hec; that ThinkJessica web site is quite an eye opener, it's terrible that so many people will take advantage of the old and vunerable

I have spent a good few hours over the last 6 months sat in Police station front desks observing their Desk Staff for their NVQ'a.They are getting lots and lots of people coming in to produce documents for points for using their mobiles phones whilst driving.The staff say they get far...

Wow, what a show. Maybe they will do a follow-up with the wedding.
