Discussions I've Participated In

I feel queasy just thinking about it but the Dr has advised that this is the answer to all my problems. I faint every time I have an injection so the thought of this is really turning my tummy. Can...

I didn't, not a chance. But my best friend did, the vicar sold it to her and then she tried to sell it to me?. Also who wrote a wedding report on WP? Own up, I think I was to drunk by the end of the...

Our next-door neighbours don't appear to have realised that their bathroom window is completely see-through even though it's frosted. They have their shower right next to the window and we get treated...

I was asked for ID last night and didn't have any so wasn't allowed into the pub. In my whole life I've only ever been asked for ID three times, and two of those have been in the last month! I'm...

MrSun has just asked me to re-book his appt. that was due next week for another six months time, he doesn't think he needs to go after only going six months ago. I guess I, perhaps naively, just do as...

I'm trying to remember the name of a movie I saw a few years ago, and short of registering for some sort of movie buff forum I figured I'd give the Hitched folk a shot with this one! I saw it in the...

To cut a long story short my MIL says that you should be very wary about giving little boys asthma treatment because when they are in their 20's their lungs can collapse. It sounds like utter nonsense...

I called our bank who we have our home insurance through to discuss our policy as it's up for renewal and I have done a price comparison and found a much cheaper policy. Bank said they can't match the...

Has anyone had any experience of kiva.org ? It was recommended to me from a mailing list I read (I know there are a few Hitchers out there who'll recognise which one since I know a few of you are...

...why did you do this? Was it for professional or personal reasons? I'm genuinely interested, I don't consider myself a possession of my husband but felt I was following tradition by taking his name,...

Do you keep getting cards addressed to your husband and your mother in law too? It never used to bother me but this year it's got right up my nose. It's not difficult to get my name right - it's the...

I want an ipod touch for Christmas, and I have looked it up on the web. Pixmania are selling the 32GB (2nd generation, this is the brand new one right??) one for £259 + £5P&P. Comet/PCWorld on the...

Permission to use the little green man?

Just a little bit of history... I have been married for over a year. My husband was married before and has 2 children from that marriage. We dont see or speak to the children or various reasons which...

I'm currently standing on a crossroads and I'm not sure which road I should take. OH and I had a huge falling out over the weekend and not only am I not surprised I'm also not overly upset either. I...

My straighteners have decided to break, just in time for for party season, and me getting a short haircut which requires straighteners to avoid looking weird. Anyway, I really want some straighteners...

Does anyone have one of these? What do you think? Do you still have periods? I'm on Microgynon which suits me very well- no mood swings, weight gain etc. Does anyone know whether this means I'm likely...

I though you needed less as you got older but I'm constantly shattered. I went to bed at midnight last night and woke up at 6.45 - I look rough as and can barely keep my eyes open. I remember staying...

I came on here this evening to find a post so that I could copy it and paste it (with quote marks of course, or a link to the thread itself) into an email for a friend. It perfectly summed up...

Gah - I keep having to retype screeds of stuff because I've caps locked by mistake. I know you can change the case in word, but by the time you've copied the text, pasted into Word, changed the case...

Walking home from the tube last night I was stopped not once, but twice, by random young men on the street who were blocking my path and doing the whole 'hey baby, where you going?' routine. Both were...

As a fair few folk on here know (i've had enough careers advice from you lot over the years ?), I'm a recent graduate in software eng., and have just come from a Masters which is highly, highly...

I went to view a bungalow yesterday (didn't think I'd be buying a bungalow in my 30's but there you go!) and I think I really liked it. I say think because FIL who came with me had his doubts and I...

I've always been a bit snotty about people who do this [with no logic or rationality, i will freely admit] but i am now eating my words, as i'm considering doing it with our house. Baby is now...

What a fab, fab book! It was recommended on here about 3 days after a friend told me about it (one of her ex-colleagues is in it!), so I bought it with my birthday money. It is brilliant. I keep...

Clearly BT related but that place scares me! So, Hitchers, lend me your gobs. If you're already a parent - when did you have kids and why? (relationship? age? career? money?) Would you change anything...

I am reading the evil seed at the minute - have recently read a lot of ok but slightly disappointing books (probably because i grabbed them off the shelf at asda) can you recommend me gripping and non...

I was wondering how many people here have a name plate on or by their front door. We've never bothered with one - when we moved in to our flat we weren't even engaged and having two names on the door...
