'grats Luc. Go you *does success dance*
We've got an eevil computer virus again
Only good news is that OH got it this time, not me
. I missed you all so much I've popped into the library to say "hi"
I think we have removed the virus but OH appears to have also removed ability to connect to internet
I have 3 long days of working a couple of hours drive from home, so don;t know what my access will be like for the rest of the week. Will be thinking of everyone if I'm not back on for a few days.
Having no internet kinda put paid to my plans to work on my dissertation today. I went to Uni to see the tutor today. He is nice but does not seem to appreciate that to see him I need to take a day off. I have lots of work to do for my resubmission and have 2nd May as a deadline :eek: I only got my report back two weeks ago! Will be a busy bee for the next few weeks. He says I can do it - I hope I can.

He could try Lactase tablets, they work for some people, fairly pricey though
Cheers for that Gemmzie. I'll have a look out for them.
He tried some carob chocolate yesterday - urgh! But he seems to be getting on ok with the flavoured soya milks. But plain soya milk doesn't mix well with Crusha milkshake stuff. :mad: Fingers crossed the lactose free milk will work/

LMC - what about things like Rice milk? You can get it in Sainsburys. I think Aldi and/or LIDL do soya milk now.

Has he tried goats milk rather than soy? A friend of mine is lactose intolerant but he feels much better since switching to goat milk, and my parents switched a while back and feel the benefit too. And I think its more like moo milk than soy is....26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

Cheers Katsu and Luc for the tips.
He's not tried those yet, but whilst he's been away he's been drinking vanilla soya milk, which I think has triggered the problem.

Maybe instead of saying it like This is what you are
Can you say that I feel like.... or you come across as...
...Linda xx
I've tried that, it was what allegedly led to the supposed overdose last week. I was saying how when she does a,b,c it makes us feel x,y,z. The problem is all she wants to hear is 'you're right, we're wrong, we'll change'.
I think I'm going to write down all my issues with her and get all the anger out before I go see her, and then I'll hopefully be able to be more constructive. And work out what issues I want to talk to her about.Salary plus up to 5% annual bonus, 25 days holiday plus 9 publics, family BUPA, w/w travel insurance, car discount vouchers...
Can't stop grinning:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
