    Cant understand how they say they want you to recycle then give you the tiniest receptacle for doing it and thehn tell you to throw all your compostable material into another bin that they dont empty often enough :mad:. Are they really taking recycling seriously or what?
    It winds me up too... my council have an appalling recycling rate, but when I went to the consultation session, they rejected all the suggestions we made to improve things, and were incredibly apathetic...

    When our council first started recycling they made headline news round here - not because of the good they were doing. No, they were making us separate all our rubbish.......

    then taking it to the landfill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    They did get fined though :o:mad:

    Macpec - I think you should seek another opinion/gp Deff think you need to see specialist. Ovarian cyst and Fybroid!!!! ( There are things that can be done I'm sure)
    I'm not going to say anything other than you know my history Jinks if you are at all worried about it......get a second opinion! Yes, I am going to bed now,nag, nag :rotfl: just said Good Night to Diva :D xx

    Morning Everyone :hello:

    Thanks guys, I am back at work today and have been looking into this in more detail, I have a Mirena Coil fitted and have since found out that can cause the cyst. The doc says that the fibroid isn't bleeding because I have this fitted. My GP is really good and she done blood test to rule out ovarian cancer, and as the cyst hasn't grown in three months theyn they won't do anything. I asked a few years ago to be sterilised but was told I was too young thats why I got the coil fitted. I think I am gonna go back and ask to get the coil out and ask again to be sterilised, I will be 38 this year :eek: and having no more [STRIKE]rug rats[/STRIKE] lovely children:o

    Sorry pigpen if OT don't be throwing a mule at me, throw it at the BD instead :D

    Anyhow listy loo...
