Right.

Good job you woke up and smelled the coffee ... or is it roses?

All the best, Jackie! It's nice to have friendly neighbours, isn't it - particularly when things are difficult. :rolleyes:

No, Not just here, anyway Hb.

Pete, While I am no expert, I think I would be inclined to give up. Biulding all that anticipation after all those years? well it could be damageing and I cant help feeling that you are doomed to fail. ttfn

How would anyone like to be the teacher of the Brown offspring? :eek: Now that's pressure!!I can't say I'm surprised "Our Gordon" has taken that position. Unlike many of the others, he did go through the state system himself, albeit at a time when there were Grammars and Secondary...

I just saw this on Sky News 7 Days and it was absolutely beautiful to watch it live! But it was all too quick to capture the moment above, which is priceless.

Can't imagine where you saw that one Nathan......Is he teasing us, Jjordie?I love Leonora's one about cats and vacuums... :rolleyes:

:D Glad to hear it!

Dear Honey-Bee, I understand your frustration and your horror. I myself hadn't seen one before in my life (and we are talking until a couple of months ago!) and now i could write a book on them....For those who don't know we are talking about head lice. I give you my "Italian" advice, as we...

Good one, Blackthorn! :D

Also, if you hear something on the radio that you don't what the track name/artist is, enter 2580 (a staright line on your phone) on your mobile, let the music play for about 2 or 3 seconds, almost instantly, you will be sent a text message with the name of the artist and track name. Works...

I think I want to move to the coast. From Wales to Hampshire is out - the scenery and gardening may be wonderful but the property price on the coast is high for my budget which is round �£180k, and the rain is, well wet, on that side. So am thinking of the Norfolk/Suffolk coast - further north...

Yup I think you got a case - particularly if you were specific about the reasons why you were requesting not to do on call. If its being done via the RCN - then there will be no risk of costs, so go for it. There's a good few cases now, where employers have been warned of potential problems, and...

I'm happy with the conventional view expressed on the web site you quote HB. Most ancient history is a mixture of myth and fact. To quote the web site"Then as archaeology developed, the artefacts of Iron Age Britain and Ireland began to be identified, and in important ways showed links with...

Waco, you had to muck out the horse AND GROOM? anyway we were so poor we only had one set of clothes between three kids, it was all right for my sisters! David.

the old gordens gin is still the same as ever,however i am a little partial to a Jamaica rum,when out there you could go to the local shop and try at least 10 different grades free of charge,hence you bought more than you wanted,quite clever really,on that subject we went into Ohios...

Liz, I remember my friend's was sweet but very pleasant. She had a dreadful sweet tooth and I not so much. She collected her berries from the hedgerows in Bucks where we lived near the Oxon border.I'll get back to you on this.

I have often thought that some of the things given away would make a good living for someone with storage space, a van, and time to attend boot sales... However as the aim is to avoid things going to landfill, does it matter what happens to things given away? Now that I can't get things from the...

no Roders not really - you should try dancing with Mr Waco!come to think of it - nou you shouldn't!
