    Hmm in the nicest possible way, was it really her train ticket? Or his?
    It's her ticket.

    She was in a bbc3 programme during the summer.

    Hi DundeeDoll,

    Freezing today, thanks!

    Talking about Skye - there is a lovely hostel in Carbost by a super pub - I have stayed there and loved it. Very civilised and friendly with great facilities (and pub within staggering distance).

    For anyone who saw the episode a few weeks ago showing all the car maintenance tips......... anyone remember what the tip was to sort out a 'stuck' car door lock? Every time I was trying to watch it on demand on the laptop, it kept switching off and now it's not available anymore.
    On the actual night, I switched in just in time to see the guy saying that the lock was now sorted.
    Pleeeeease, can anyone remember?

    We stayed in Carbisdale Castle and loved it! I especially liked the thunder cracking as we arrived - very horror movie! - and the statue gallery. One of the best Youth Hostels we've stayed in :)

  • I think WD40 but I'm not sure.
    Put the kettle on. ;)

    Apparently if you put WD40 in it just gums up with all the dirt and dust in the lock and makes it worse. Unfortunately we tried it before we knew we weren't meant to do it!
