Re: Christmas tv adverts

WM Sorry you don't hear the Sally Army anymore. Now that MOH is unwell, and I am disabled I still do as much of my list as I can. For reasons I won't go into, (but will say that it's not for lack of invitations), sadly we no longer spend Christmas with our children and grandchildren, my decision. So...

Re: Christmas tv adverts

In my eyes, it's the cheer in the shops playing carols, the Sally Army playing carols on street corners, Christmas lights brightening dark afternoons, the smell of a pine tree in the lounge, covered with baubles and lights.

Rita I'm sorry and saddened to hear about Skippy, she had the best home ever. I too have felt your pain, and only time heals that leaving heartfelt memories. Take comfort in knowing that you gave her the love she needed, that she knew it, and loved you in return. You can never replace a beloved pet,...

Re: Tax Department goes after defaulter...

No need for this, when notified of a persons death, it only takes two minutes to alter the account to 'executors of'.

Re: The super, super healthy olive oil (CMail)

I only use olive oil for cooking, it's quite expensive here in the UK already, Lord knows what the price will be now the news is out.

Royal Wedding

It was a 'no show' for Camilla at Eugenie's wedding today, lots of speculation, but I don't think that Her Majesty will be amused by the apparent snub.

Re: Is the EU ready for turning ?

There are two sides to every coin, at one time, I too needed paid employment, but was not in a position to leave my child to work, and I was unable to afford child care. Together with my friend, who was in a similar position to me, we job shared, and cared for each others children. We had both previ...

Re: Birmingham Pub Bombings

Hudswell Obviously Mr Mullins will not. I wonder too how people can live with themselves after committing mass murder, the cowards who do care not, having no conscience is a very strange concept to me. Then again does Mr Mullins really have the identity of one of the killers, or is it his ten minute...
