Discussions I've Participated In

Hey all, hope your having a nice friday night. We have recently bought our first house, in a new development, which is beside another housing estate. Over the summer months, we have had kids, who are...

Following on from Saracroft's thread, been thinking about this for a while now. Some titles are quirky, some are straight forward some are requests for help. Which ones do you think I will look, read...

Does she do more than one?

I *really* want a tartan shirt, in dark grungy colours. I'd also like one that's fitted, rather than loose. Herein lies my problem. Skinny back, arms and shoulders but 30FF boobage. I tried all the...

Over the next while, I'm identifying and taking photos of 30 things which make me happy. Some will be deep, others will be flippant and not in any particular order. I've only got two so far as I've...

OK, a wedding has sneaked up on me. Next Friday H & I are going to a rather fancy evening do at the poshest hotel in town. H is fine, planning to pick the cat hair off his kilt and away he goes,...

I notice on here quite a bit how someone mentions that their OH does some sort of job relevant to the topic and then gives an opinion/recounts a story based on their OH's job. Now my OH has a very...

I am considering booking a week for my sons birthday present-they will be 21 at the end of the month. I would probably book for sometime in July or September. I don't know much about it, but I thought...

I've just been sent a "gift book" to review at work. It's a collection of quotes from famous people about getting through hard times. I fucking hate gift books - they give the rage. So for some reason...

Sadly mr j would divorce me if i have a party - he really is pretty miserable about the whole thing - but working on the basis he will be even more sulky if nothing happens i feel i need to do...

Slightly random musing...yesterday I was at work and decided to put on some lip balm. As I was doing so I realised that I hadn't looked in the mirror all day, and that it was about 11am. I had to go...

Thanks for your restaurant recs, guys. I tried them-all good, and would recommend a few others -Il Geranio, Capri's and Da Gemma. I arrived home on Friday evening, and I have to say, I am enchanted!...

We are off to Capri for a week next Friday. It's H's present for my 40th. I am ridiculously excited! I have been a bit preoccupied, so haven't researched restaurants/cool bars/things to do etc, as I...

I'm normally such a tightwad and go for the cheapest option I can. I'm a low maintenance sort and most mornings end up just brushing and tying my hair back or clipping it up. I don't wear makeup or do...

And do you also tip anyone else in the salon ie the person that washed your hair? I'm pretty sure that you're supposed to, but I've always found doing it a bit awkward, so I tend not to - I'm not sure...

For us it was 20 months from the time we first met until we tied the knot. How about you?

Although we agreed we would get married at some point earlier on, we officially got engaged in December 2003 and married May 2004 so five months. I didn't find it hard to plan a wedding in that time...

I'm really not a huge fan of romantic comedies, well not that I'd readily admit to it but just caught last half an hour or so on ITV2 and realised how much I love this film! ? Yes, I know it's pretty...

Or do you have a smaller portion?

One of those 'pick a five' things on Facebook, Which famous people have you been told you look like.... Off you go then.

What would you do differently on your wedding day if you could go back and do it again?? x

I've spent, and am about to spend, a small fortune on my two year old car (usual wear and tear of tyres and brakes, plus service). I'd specificaly saved for the service but nothing else. Have £200 put...

And On Monday I will be off to pastures anew....... I am wearing an inappropriate frock and *** me shoes, but I couldn't give a flying ***! As the clock strikes 5, I will be off for my leaving do. I...

I'm 32 this year and am really starting to notice lines under my eyes and the beginnings of crows feet at the edges. My beauty routine is cleanse, tone and moisturise daily and has been since I was a...

I'm bored rigid. Mr Hole has popped out to watch the footie, the baybeh is sleeping and my son is out with his friends. We managed to pop out to the shops just before lunch when the rain held off a...

? for me today. Good: 15k run yesterday didn't hurt too much so Marathon de Paris next sunday is ON like a SCONE, as they say (or do they?) It will hurt and I might not finish but at least I am fixed...

And I got the job! Woo hoo! Well....subject to references and for my part, if they will pay what I am asking. This should all be clearer within the next few days. It was just so unexpected and...

Well, the mod-father can still pull it off. Very charged performance. Although, H and I were a bit disappointed, in that it was a bit of a self indulgent gig (lots of stuff from the new album/obscure...
