Our boiler has finally decided to give up, after two years of struggling, so we have to bite the bullet and get a new one. If only it were that simple! I've no idea where to start looking, apart from...

Pretty much what it says in the title but not a new one - Im looking at **** really, has anyone had experience, good or bad? To do daily short journeys mainly. Many thanks. I can't find a car I like...

We've lived in our current flat for almost 3 years. Its a Housing Association property, and our downstairs neighbours are tenants of the same HA. We noticed the odd weed smell very occasionally since...

The time has come again for us to totally misread the financial situation and choose the wrong mortgage. Two years ago I was about to go on ML so we fixed to be safe - the rates have dropped to an all...

Meeting with friends in that area a week on saturday as we're camping in Leominster, and going to the fireworks comp at Eastnor in the evening. Need somewhere for us to all meet up and be decent...

Does anyone else get wound up by things that actually, you shouldn't? (The eating thread has made me think of this, although that habit is not innocuous). H has recently started 'holding' his side. It...

FiL has just had a quadruple bypass and valve replacement. Physical recovery is going well but 48 hours or so post surgery he started showing signs of extreme confusion and paranoia, to the point of...

We have just returned from the Supermarket, and I have been thinking about it the whole way home.... There was a couple holding hands in the entrance to the Supermarket and the female was about my age...

H had a Dominoes pizza last night (the one with BBQ sauce, chicken and mixed peppers) He ate it about 8pm, then about 3am he started being sick, he now has the runs aswell, feels weak and shaky. Hasnt...

We're off to Sydney in the morning - H has got a few meetings and some work stuff to sort out and I'll be checking out houses, the shops, the people, the vibe - basically trying to convince myself...

Sorry for the crap title, I have been umming and ahhing about whether to put this on here for ages. However, I know you all quite well and have been here for 5 years +, so I thought a little honesty...

Can someone please explain to me what the decision has been taken to release the 'Lockerbie Bomber'. I know it is on 'compassionate grounds' as he has terminal cancer but I've not heard of the...

Anyone got any experience of getting life/critical illness cover with a history of depression? At one point I know that I got quoted an outrageous price for it because I'd had depression, even though...

I have been thinking for some time about getting an i-phone as I'm due an upgrade but just wondered how all of you with one get on with it. Is it easy to use? Have you had any problems? What's the...

...obviously? Am usually on BT, but was up last night and responded to a pretty despondent post from him. Am a little concerned - has anyone heard from him?

Fun article here: http://women.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/women/the_way_we_live/article6799363.ece Of course, having read it, I'm now desperate to browse the catalogue ?

That doesnt cost the earth, and I might be able to book at short notice! Thanks in advance

Gah - I've lost the ear thingies from my iPod. I'm severely skint so don't want to get flash ones - the quality of the ordinary Apple ones is fine. Should I just go to the Apple store (which I hate!)...

I'm trying to describe different sectors of publishing and the only phrase I can think of is 'specialist publications' but that sounds a bit top shelf ? What's the description for interest magazines -...

OH (new OH, c.4 mths) has been sat next to me while i read HB's 'ultimatum' post. Eventually he asked what I was doing and if he could see my profile on here and I said no. I keep no other secrets...

Having seen the thread on yoga I was wondering if anyone could suggest which type of yoga to begin with. I play some sport but am not fit and am trying to shed the lbs. I would like something that is...

Am meeting a friend in 'Nam for lunch tomorrow. Needs to be somewhere relatively child-friendly, probably not full on 3 course sit-down meal as we're going cheese tasting later on. Any ideas?

And can you do anything with the speed? It's so painful, as everyone on that thread is saying.

He was a bit silly to talk so unguardedly to a man who had dug his garden up (?) but I find it absolutely that anyone has suggested that this should be a resignation issue. It's pretty obvious he was...
