    And here is why I don't think supporting or dismissing views on such emotive subjects is a good idea.

    This is not Discussion Time, none of us chose to look up a meaty subject to pull apart, without emotion.

    Neither is it a therapy session.....

    .....so apologies dealt, relevant heads hung in shame ;-), as already said...

    lets move on :A

    So, anyway....

    um, houseprices?

    I think they are freakin' all over the place ATM. Anyone else?


    I also quite like chocolate. Does anyone else like chocolate?

    That reminds me - there are four Cadbury's fingers in a box hidden in my T-shirt drawer where my kids won't find them. Time to eat them after all that drama, I think.

    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    You unfortunately couldn't cope with being my wife.

    Probably not, but I'd be interested to know why you particularly deduce that from my post about chocolate fingers.
