I don't watch soaps Of course, I haven't 'grown up' with shows like Eastenders, Coronation Street etc., back home it was Days of our Lives - which I never watched either. I do watch Friends and Fraser - guess they are more 'sitcom' than soaps.....but I did used to watch Dallas and Dynasty as...

I hope you don't mind me posting this, but I am doing a charity bike ride in July from London to Paris.The route is approximately 300km over three days. all money raised is going to The Brainwave Centre Limited Brainwave. They support Children with a range of disabilities and behavioural...

PM sent, thank youJo

Thanks Sussex. I'll make it a point to irritate the guides with questions about how close the Rome/Carthage dispute was. LoL As regards the currency thing, we'll have a look when we're out there.

this is what comes of letting Foreigners buy up everything .If essensial services had not been privatised it could not have happened.

I totally agree with having "an advisary" explaining the benefits of showing ones geographic location - I certainly need folks to know where I am as the winters have a reasonable amount of sun but the temp is very cold and the ground is rock solid from November until about now - at least that is...

Thanks Jazmine and Penny, I also got some garden centre vouchers from my dad so I'm a very happy boy! I think I'll be spending this Saturday at the garden centre. Chris

Have you ever thought of the billions going out of this country to Microsoft and its "partners". Maybe if there was a big shift to Linux systems it would help the National economy. I worked all my life for my pensions, which is enough to exist on, I see no point in subscribing to Bill Gates...

It's worth having a look atit's just about the easiest comparison tool out there at the moment
