Two women apparently.

The strange desire to haul external foliage into a small urban house or flat baffles me. We did it one year , needles dropped into the radiogram and was finding them years later. Christmas Trees and Cats dont mix either. There is a form of therapy I guess adding greenery in some places - the resin s...

This was mentioned in the general press at the start of December. This version is a bit more technical and less `hyped up', though it is a significant step forward in understanding how viruses infect our cells... `Scientists capture flu viruses surfing into human cells in real time' Science Daily S...

Surprised Deer not on the list. Ways of getting Pheasant and other game when you know where to drive , need to chose ones vehicles as too big for some you squash them beyond use , too small for others and the vehicle wont live to tell the tale

There are times when WW2 movies come on the TV, Easter Holidays, D-Day and VE Day anniversaries , and the Christmas Film Schedule. Today was Operation Crossbow , looking at the bombing of the V2 and other rocket launch test and production sites. I went off on a little look on a question and got this...

The monarchy generally of recent years have used their medical issues to raise awareness of such potential things among the general populace ( Williams Wife maybe being an exception of recitude on details , which I think is a pity ). Of course such persons of state are not subject to the postcode lo...

It is not Trump alone, there are more of them (we could start with his son then spin out among influencers and the circle of trump hangers on) Musk needs to be reminded he is an immigrant (to the US) Rogue States - probably most mentioned in the Security Briefing for this year in the US. Iraq, Iran,...

Tuesday afternoon . up to London Bridge. The first rail station apparently to get some Great British Railways brandings (its incomplete) with an AI (well computer game) launch and Hornby Railways 00 train in new livery running on a mini layout. No full size train nor live people from the department ...

London surprisingly sunny and general uplift of south.westerly low wind so not too bad - not that I could go out with three visitors expected. Thurs should be weather much the same in morning maybe a couple of degrees lower with more cloud in the afternoon. Must check the incoming post too as famili...

I doubt Death will be the main problem , more an incapability beforehand - indeed how many visiting health care professionals actually understand the complexity of a single person living on their own , especially when hiterto they have been alert and capable of doing everyday tasks plus. getting som...

try login on a computer at the library if you have access to check / change password. Iphones are above my pay grade but I suspect you might have a CAPS set issue , where it is holding capitols - android releases unless you double up shift first. Watch too for underscore and dash and other odd chara...

there was a thick knotting compound , like polyfilla , I dont think it contained asbestos (might have done) rub down apply sand prime

So far as I can think of other world religions most dont care about the distinction between male / female. This seems to arise in Jewish-Christian Thinking. (argueably islam too) One possible reason is the Male deity in the Bible , the female "Gaia" or Fertility Ashera as compatriot of war...

We have been here before YTS and similar programmes in the past Daily Express via MSN unemployed young people will be told to accept jobs or lose benefits Thousands of unemployed young people are to be offered a "guaranteed" job and face benefit cuts if they refuse to accept it. Others wil...

I thought Stain Blocker was for water / salts based causes rather than oil based ones . (is resin oil or water ??)

At age 69, Linda Hamilton says she doesn't "spend a moment trying to look younger on any level, ever." "I have just completely surrendered to the fact that this is the face that I've earned. And so it should be :good: FB_IMG_1765044489013.jpg Photo by Fred Duval / Shutterstock For th...

I assume made in China / Vietnam/ Bangladesh / Cambodia

Snooker chased the money , which was coming from sales into China and heavy sponsership to appeal to high end chinese buyers. I think in the past we could identify with the more local British and Commonwealth players - a bit like the Darts too - but the final at York has become interesting with Mark...

Heard in the news, four people have been arrested for throwing apple crumble at the crown jewels. One shouldn't condone vandalism but it made me chuckle every time the newsreader said it, I'm not sure why they had to name the specific food :biggrin2: cor blimey call the grime squad, we are not talk...

Apparently an increase in a rather stronger than expected type of flu is about. sending more people into hospital earlier in the year.
Who are these people that get out and about so much to pick viruses up so quickly
