Long story short - I haven't been coping with life too well of late and things all came to a head on Monday when I had to go to the doctors who then diagnosed me with post traumatic stress disorder. I...

To give you a very brief background, some neccessary some maybe not: I have a friend who has always been impulsive, quite stubborn, and flits between highs and lows quite rapidly. I got to know her...

The BBC has just reported that there could be 100,000 new cases per day at it's peak throughout August. It is expected to affect millions of us by the end of the year. It doesn't surprise me though. I...

Hi All, Sorry I have been away for a while so am being naughty and asking a question without contributing first (but I have jetlag so you can't be too cross!). But can anyone familiar with Leeds...

Cutting a big hunk of cheese on a wobbly chopping board with a very sharp knife having just come back from the pub is not advised. Unless you want to massive gashes in your thigh (one's a ricocchet...

SB is a very busy boy - touch rugby on Monday, RNR on Tuesday, Tae KwonDo on Wednesday, sometimes Thursday and on Saturday too... so he's got a full week. He lives 100 miles away from me but works in...

Can anyone give me some insight into this film?? H is trying to broaden my movie watching horizons past Grease 2 and any rom-com with Drew Barrymore. So we watched Donny Darko after he told me it was...
