Discussions I've Participated In

I've not asked for vibes before on here but as I don't seem to be getting very far, maybe vibes can just swing it for me. Briefly, I worked for a company for over 20 years, got headhunted at the end...

Took the car we're trying to sell to a carwasher bloke who waxed it for me. He said his friend might want to buy it, and said "If I can get him to pay $4,500 you can give me $250 for...

If so what do you give them/include? We have started giving Al raw chicken wings as an addition to his food, and read a fair bit online as to how good/bad these maybe for him. At the moment it's as...

So on the Beeb this morning, they were discussing Brits abroad. And as usual a mixed bag of perceptions, but according to the piece, the further afield we go, the better behaved we seem to be...

Most people are going at Margot and Jerry, so MrG and I want to go as Tom and Barbara ? I have left it really last minute, (the party is tomorrow!) and have no idea what to wear. I have...

Are they his biological children?

I'm getting a new logo for my company (we've gone limited, the website needs a good update and a bunch of other changes have been made, so a new logo seemed like a good idea). So I've got this logo...

I work as an independent contractor, meaning I get 100% commission so make up my own hours and only get paid if/when I sell a house. As such I rarely go into my office (particuarly now I have my...

My first AIBU. Names changed to protect the stupid. I have a work meeting on Wednesday 200 miles away from home. Head Office told us that this meeting was going to take place a few weeks ago but we...

My sister and I still quote this ad a fair bit - the catch phrase "you don't say!" has really stuck with us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpswiH_Vkes Any ads that have stuck with you?

Ok I'm watching it whilst an arseholder but it's utter tripe! I like abba as much as the next person but it's badly acted, badly directed and has no real plot, I don't care who her dad is or that her...

For me is was the kiddy catcher out of chitty chitty bang bang. Sends shivers down my spine even now ? Did any scare you?

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've just had First Direct call me to say there's been some unusal activity on my card. I thought this was odd seeing as I've only had the card a week. I got a new one sent through because I lost my...

We're heading out there in July with our three year old daughter. We've been before and used the shuttle bus transfers but it was terrifying! The driver was horrendous and it took us ages to get to...

We're now 'legal permanent residents'!! Letter arrived yesterday, cards to follow in the next 3 weeks. My, that was fast! H is nervous about telling one of his colleagues from India who is still...

I had a slight panic the other week when someone tagged a close up of my cleavage on a hen do, as I'm friends on FB with a bloke at work who would circulate it round the IT department. I've checked...

We have garnishes and the odd bit here and there tonight we had a three-leaf salad with radishes, all from the garden (with smoked mackerel and avocado, which were not). I'm so chuffed ?. Battling the...

It was my 40th last night and I had a party, it was a vary planned party with formal invites which needed RSVP's and due to conditions at the venue I needed guests names for them to be enrolled onto...

And what's on your "to read" pile? I have just finished "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas" and it made me feel sick. I bought "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies", but WTP had nicked off with it, so I'm...

? If you eat something and then it comes out 90 mins later, is it definitely food poisoning? ?

Well the Save the Date card for the big bash arrived today....I so wish I had a way of showing it to you because it is a classic. It is shaped like a pumpkin carriage from Cinderella and has a...

Just pondering. Do you still do snogging and how long have you been together? We've been together for 11 years so not much snoggage these days. I think that's normal though.

Has anyone emigrated to USA off their own bat rather than moving with an exisiting company for example? I just wondered how the whole process (roughly) worked - is it like Oz where they accept you if...

I'll try to keep this short. My husband was having driving lessons a couple of year ago but never got around to taking his test. This was due to money. He's bought a car and is insuring it on friday...

H's family always HAVE to use napkins when eating. Even when eating a sandwich/piece of toast/cookie. I thought this was just an American thing, because my family only use napkins at Christmas or in...

We use a service for sending texts that people can reply to and that works fine. I now need to implement something whereby people will 'text this number to sign up', and my current online service...

I have just spotted one of our neighbours affixing a small brass sign to the front of his house bearing the legend "The Pinery". Now bearing in mind this is a pretty newish estate full of nice enough...

I posted ages ago about MIL joining Fbook and how it pissed me off that I'd have no privacy. Following advice from here (and amid outrage at my "ageist" comments ?) I set my privacy settings so that...
