I have Coeliac disease, which means if I eat gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye and oats, it triggers an auto-immune response which destroys my stomach lining. The marking "gluten free" you will see on some food packaging is aimed at people like me. There are supposed to be something like a million Coeliacs in this country, and it can be a right pain sometimes.

Try finding glutenfree which is egg free as well I've only found tesco freefrom digestive biscuits so far

littleladybug, is your admission difficulty in relation to primary school entry, ie are we talking about a 4 or 5 year old? Don't want to confuse matters further for you but if it is, aside from all the other issues peeps have raised, I would really think long and hard about using a taxi or car share for one so young who is just starting school. I have had experience of using local authority provided taxi service and car shares and it is not ideal even for older children, but may be OK if your littlie knows the other adults pretty well and is comfortable with them. Can be extremely isolating at the end of a long and tiring day if not.

It isn't easy all this, is it? Good luck with getting where you want to be.

Yes, she will be four at the end of June so only a littlie. Wouldn't consider car share or taxi at this age as would only want to drop her off myself but I guess if she was to make a friend who lived near me and I was to get to know their parents well then in the future it could be a possiblility. Thanks for the good luck, gonna call the county in a sec but reckon I could be on hold for a while :eek:

I just got majorly trouted using a L'oreal coupon in Mr A. It might just be cos i'm not feeling well today, but it really shook me up. The sa was horrible, and it ended up in a shouting match, and me storming off to CS shaking. The were other staff about, but no doubt their version of events will be supporting their colleauge The Trout.

Lutzi, I do believe BCW123 is declaring an interest in your daughter. She IS quite lovely, as you say, by the way.

Thank you, OldBear.

He will of course have to have an in-depth interview with her father to see whether he passes muster! :rotfl:

I have the same problem. They spend ages trying to find a good vein and always have to call over the most senior nurse.

It always takes ages, it always hurts and I always have a large bruise the next day. Sometimes I spring a leak afterwards - hard as it is for them to get it out in the first place it doesn't always want to stop when they have taken enough.

I do it anyway though. If it was really too much trouble for them they would tell me not to bother so I can only assume the fact they persevere means they really need it.

I also find it strange that a gay man can't donate but the question that really surprises me is whether, as a woman, I have ever had intercourse with a man who has ever had intercourse with another man. A yes would rule me out as a donor.

As I said to them once when they asked me - how can I answer no and be 100% sure that is the truth? I think 'not that I am aware of' is the correct answer as I am not sure that I would definitely know if the answer was yes.

Chances are most women wouldn't know the answer to that anyway ... unless they lie detector the bloke before sleeping with him!

The trout would not listen, and kep talking over the top of me, and eventually I also got annoyed and bit back. I'm annoyed with myself as well, because I should have handled it better, and not let her get to me.

*eta* Tinyshoes - I'm ok thanks, I might give that Mr A's a miss for a bit!
