Does anyone know? I've tried Babel Fish to help me but failed .... ! Eliquatuero dip eros nusan vent etlam, conum la facillum initit doloreet ullame tuerotet. Lor adit commod tummy niam dolorti...
I've got a bay window in a property I'm about to let. It's on a busy main road with a path right outside. Ground floor. Before the fire it had nets and curtains and was used as a bedroom, but now I'm...
We're going away tomorrow (him on a business trip, me to sightsee and be waited on) and I've just emptied my handbag out of all the junk. I'd noticed a couple of times the black leather was looking a...
As well as Z Cars, what do you remember watching in your youth? I've got the Crossroads theme running through my head right now, even though I didn't like it (the daughter used to spook me) And TOTP...
Seriously - he has the most droppy stomach I've ever seen on a cat! He is a year old now, just over. He is huge! Weighs about a stone. But he's not fat. So why does he have all this loose, hanging...
This morning I tried to log on, and after what took an age, Hitched hung, or at best, loaded after about 15 minutes or so. I've tried to reply to threads a couple of times over the past few days...
What can I get my soon-to-be 16 year old Goddaughter? All I've ever done for her is put money into an account, but I've stopped that now. What can I get her that she will love? Something that can be...
Is it on in the UK yet? It's been out here since 7th August and I went to see it yesterday. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although I did find Merryl Streep annoying. Until afterwards the ladies I went with...
Which is it when you write something-***/come-something else-***/come something else? I'm not sure, and don't want to make myself look like a right twonk! I think it's ***, but well, if I get it wrong...
Hmmm .. it's not my cup of tea, but my Mum, who turned 78 less than a month ago, set off this morning to go camping with the couple she is staying with in France! Email received this morning said they...
I've dealt with the father for over 20 years. Son has joined his business, and I've started dealing with him, although I prefer to deal with the father for the following reasons. * Son is grumpy,...
I was stroking my 8.5 year old cat this morning and the length of his whiskers struck me as being far wider than his body. So I had a look at Tex's whiskers, and they are not only far shorter (about...
It's this - a wonderfully priceless (as in cheap!) soup bowl from Tesco. Bought it about 10 years ago, and now I need a replacement bowl, but can't find one anywhere. Can anyone ? Thanks!
Brother - much, much better since my Mum got back from her holiday in Austria. He was back at rock bottom again, calling me up to 30 times a day. I had to call the Doctors to him after another suicide...
I'm unpacking box after box after moving house last week, and I'm finding items I've not looked at since we arrived in the US back in Spring 2007. Thing is, most of them are sentimental items .....
So I'm living in box-city at the moment as we moved house yesterday! Quite proud of the fact I didn't lose it (much) during the moving process - which took 3 days to move 3 miles down the road! Did...
Are you able to stop being fishwifery? Sheesh, the stress is getting to me ATM and I've turned into a right 'un. It's not pleasant, and I don't like it. Clearly I don't like it enough to stop the...
Don't want to post on the original thread and bring it back up again, but on there I posted that I didn't feel Paris Jackson was sincere at her Dad's memorial. I haven't watched TV much since then,...
Sadly we're back to square one with my brother. I'm again at my wits end, and last night, when I asked him if he was talking about taking his life (he is a right poet, so nothing is in plain English...
I can't find one for love nor money either in the US or the UK. It's a bathroom cabinet with mirrored doors that swivel so you can see the back of your head. I bought one from Homebase, but left it in...
What I Want In A Man! Original List: 1. Handsome 2. Charming 3. Financially successful 4. A caring listener 5. Witty 6. In good shape 7. Dresses with style 8. Appreciates finer things 9. Full of...
What a game! Well done Serena! She played so, so well. I'm a bit biased towards Venus as we've met her, so love to see her win, but Serena deserved that so much. She played fantastically. (love the...
She's late 70s, and appreciates edible goodies rather than ornaments or nick-naks I've been searching and searching and can't find anything nice to send to her. Budget around 25 squid. I do find it...
Today we close on our house here in Houston. Very exciting to be in the fortunate position of getting our Green Cards and being able to make permanent plans to live here. Really looking forward to...
Can't remember who it was, but here is mine which has just been fitted in the house I lease out in the UK which was set alight by some barsteward. Yes, yes, I know I keep on about this SOB who broke...
Reading Flowery's post reminded me of this quiz I saw yesterday. How would you do in the Weekly world news quiz?
We're moving house, and today we had the full inspection (same as a full structural survey). It took all afternoon and lasted until early evening. As we were leaving our next door neighbour drove up...
I need to contact them but can't find a number online for the life of me. I'll be calling them from the States, so 100 won't work from here. I need an actual number. My head is about to explode with...
I've been to the dentist for my bi-annual check-up and clean. Apparently I've got tiny weeny cavities in my very back teeth (I think they are wisdom teeth, but can't be sure as I've had so many out...
Gosh, is this news to you guys? Certainly an attention-grabbing headline for me ? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8090683.stm
Mine is in F, so need to know top setting in C please. Thanks!
