Discussions I've Participated In

We are meeting with an estate agent tomorrow after work to discuss putting our flat on the market. I know that the market is looking decidedly grim at the moment but wondered if anyone had any quick...

I am sure no-one is going to be able to give me any kind of definite answer to this but I'm really just looking for a bit of reassurance. I have an 8.5 month old dog who is very attached to me and my...

I'm going to Lake Garda on a (coach ?) tour with my mum in a few weeks time to celebrate her retirement. I'm really not up to going but it's all paid for and my mum has her heart set on it so we need...

I thought this was a very interesting piece on how unrealistic our expectations of our own bodies should be. The basic premise, for anyone who didn't see, was that models in magazines & adverts...

Is there anything in particular I should look out for? Don't need to do a shop this week - just looking for recommendations for any of their products that are too good to miss!!! Are they good for...

...of adding an its-not-about-the-money reason for claiming right at the end of the segment, so as not to appear that all they are interested in is the money. For example: "I slipped over at work on a...

Only now I'm watching last night episode. Why is this bitch still in there? What a stupid vile dick head she is. I can't stand her. She really makes me angry. I can't wait to read about her in the...

I posted this before, a long time ago back when hitched was still yellow and all you lovely hitchers were very helpful. Our daughter’s birthday is coming up again soon and as always books is on the...

Just got a call off a call centre for the umpteenth time this month trying to sell my husband extra cover for our sky which we don't want. My issues are: 1. Sky is in MY name not his so I get very...

I feel rough. Ive been off work since wednesday with a kidney infection and I still feel terrible. Back ache, tummy ache, throwing up, dizzy. The doc gave me anti-sickness tablets and told me it was...

Hi Hope no-one minds my venting. Took my lovely dog on a nice walk earlier and had it totally ruined by the actions of another dog owner. I'll try and expain as neutrally as possible but bearing in...
