  • interesting posts in the last few days. My thoughts go out to those that need them.

    I'm in bed with a nasty cold virus, came home early from work. My on off partner is moving into his own flat today, about 150 miles away, feels odd, but I guess it's the right thing, he lived with me for over 2 years, but he wasn't 'ready for commitment', so I asked him to leave. He didn't resist.

    Oh well

  • I like to think I'm open minded, but I don't trust someone with an agenda, and I don't support people making medical claims on a forum where I'm not even allowed to say "I'm annoyed today because I feel sick - silly side effects!"..

    Good point, FG. Ted, if anyone is interested in your claims, I suggest they contact you privately. I have put you on ignore, but seeing your name repeatedly is putting me off posting. This is, as FG points out, supposed to be a safe haven, and while I don't wish to be rude, I am tired of seeing you tout this Vit D 'cure' all over the boards for various problems.
