    We've just had the letter about Erin's residential next year, £40 now, £60 beginning December then the other £208.50 by beginning March. Half of me wants to tell them to stick it, but the other half doesn't want her left out! What do I do?

    I've never understood the appeal of beetroot _pale_

    I ended up in hospital after eating it as a small child, my mother misunderstood the resulting pink poop for intestinal meltdown. Never been keen since.
