    Thanks for all your good wishes.

    It appears that all the state of the art treatment for Dad's liver tumors may have worked, but sadly at the same time the original bowel tumor spread.

    Now it is in too many places for any hope to remain.

    Had a difficult few days here trying to balance pain relief with total confusion and he is now in hospital overnight for them to run tests.
    Sorry to hear that. My old's started with one, then it metastised to other organs.

    I can't say anything to make a difference... but wanted to post rather than remain silent.

    Yes ditto SC.

    i think ours is about 37 square metres.
    That's the size of a whole modern house/flat.... 400 square feet; my last studio was 250. The 2-bed mobile I was in last week was 280!

    That's one big mofo room.

    So sorry to hear your news silvercar. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    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.

    We should start a "how big/small is your kitchen.... with photo" part of the thread.

    Who has the biggest?

    Michaels is bigger than mine, i am pretty certain.
