    The deaths of children whose parents do not take them to a real doctor - nope, not really a problem.

    Considering I've started this thread as a non believer your point is invalid.

    My wife went to see a "kinesiologist" in Holywood a couple of times, IIRC it was about 30 quid for a half hour session. She got her chakras realigned and her hip was apparently a bit wonky so she pushed it back into place. Each trip was then followed up with a recommendation to buy some herbal remedies from the shop conveniently located below. apparently she diagnosed a wheat allergy as well which seemed to be a recurring theme when talking to others.
    She didn't offer a cure for the hiccups caused by my laughing at the gullibility of her customers.

    Of course it would be in Holywood wouldn't it? :rotfl: You could take odds on there being something similar in Crawfordsburn. I suppose you'd need something like that to calm you after seeing Van do one of his rants in the Crawfordsburn Inn. :D

    Sorry Glynn - time for me to correct you - its the Culloden Van sings for his supper in. Thankfully Ye Olde Inn is way too small for that
