Discussions I've Participated In

Basically I spent that past 8 weeks organising a secret surprise for H - for H's family to meet him for the first time (he is adopted and not met his Dad before). Since then, although H was gobsmacked...

You do realise that what you're doing is putting such a huge terrible strain on our marriage that right this moment in time, I want you to leave. I also question whether this will ever settle down, or...

My friends/family say I am putting up with a lot, but I want to ask you as "outsiders" to see what they are telling me is just something they think I want to hear... I have talked about H finding his...

Please forgive me for just posting this but I need to get this down as I'm going mad, and need some fresh perspective on things. H is adopted. Since I've known him (6 years) we have been searching...

How can I do this without making the pasta go all stodgy and stick together? We only have a microwave in work. I've already frozen the sauce, so just need to work out the pasta - I'm fed up of having...

My payrise was due in August, and yet, it's still pending. This isn't just me, but lots of other people who had their appraisals around this time. I work for a global company, and the issue I've been...

What sympbols do you put round text so you can put it in a cell. I want to use symbols that are normalls used in calculations. Thanks

It appears that my smear has picked up the bacteria that leads to PID, as a result of my recent coil insertion. My doctor is sending me some literature, but wouldn't recommend a course of action. I...

If I wanted to hard boil a shed load (well not that many, but lots) of eggs, can I do it the day before and serve them the following day? Do I keep them in the shells until I want to serve them, or...

I have just been diagnosed with this, although I rather feel I've been fobbed off. I have been referred to the hospital's breast clinic twice now and had several cysts aspirated, and am still getting...

What do you think??

After a bit of advice please if anyone here uses the above. When I compose a message using yahoo mail it won't let me send it - when pressing the send button, it seems to always default to the attach...

Since giving birth, I've lost a stone and a half (without trying [:I]). I've been told on a couple of occasions that I look "athletic" (as well as a lioness! ?). Is this a compliment, or am I now just...

I can't log in, is it just me?

I've had this fitted today (10 year one) and was wondering if anyone else has it and how they've found it. I know each person will find it different.

He's never brought me anything before (for which I've been really rather grateful). Today, my first ever gift. A piece of cooked chicken skin. In the middle of Clara's play gym ?? Oh yes. Aren't I...

Do you actually think of yourself as the person who've changed their name or do you think it's "just" a name and you're still the person before? For example, I still think of myself as Clare B rather...

I went out for dinner with 5 friends last night. We went for drinks first and four of us put £10 into a kitty. The other two turned up just as we were leaving for the restaurant so one bought a drink...

I have just been offered some data entry work and was wondering if anyone here did similar. I have to go to the Co-ordinator's house next week for a morning of training. She said they pay 20pence per...

I applied for a job through an agency last Thursday, and then followed it up with an email on Friday, enquiring whether it would be a good idea for me to phone in and have a chat with them as the job...
