ATM trying to hide from fir that some pink flamingo lights come um if you type bubble solar garden light on google image.

Lots of lovely lamps out there.... it'd be easy to choose 8-10 styles ... and still find others to acquire

I think I have some solar lamps coming over here next weekend. Ex gave them to my mum as a gift, but they've never been used. I said I might as well have them if she didn't want them. Can't really remember what they look like, don't think they are especially aesthetically pleasing.

I like the flamingos

Over time, I'd like to have a pathway of: shells ... edged with a pile of beachglass with the little lights on the pile.

Have to work out what's best piece by piece once I'm in.

I could probably get some seaweed and dry/coat it ... as decoration too

You can get solar lights that look like little rocks to light up a path.

We were thinking if we stick to warm white we can mix styles ok probably.


We particularly want different size lights on the same things in places.

But a little less much than both maybe.

Have you read this article?

I hadn't, but had previously heard him explain the history on R4.

Don't really want to debate it on the NPT tbh, though you know my thoughts from the other thread. The very moderate party that I voted for got no seats in my region, sadly.

How is the, err, you know, thingy?



lir, it is not a competition. And even if it was, you do in fact have a lot to contend with, objectively speaking, and you cope a lot better than I would, or most of the rest of the NP, I imagine. So stop apologising for finding it tough.

Please don't feel you can't tell the NP when you are depressed. We are here for each other, as you would know perfectly well if it was any of the rest of us going through the mill, in the bad times as well as the good ones, or the "hooray I am now feeling better" times.

Glad you are feeling better right now. Enjoy it, but don't overdo it. Please?



I'm not going to tell you not to feel ashamed of your weight, because I know that none of us can change our feelings by an effort of will. But do please remember that the NP still love you, value you and want you around, regardless of how much you weigh. Although of course we will celebrate with you if you do lose weight, because we know that's what you want. Oh, and remember that lots of us have met you, and however much you may prefer how you look without the extra weight that your health troubles have given you, the weight has never succeeded in making you anything even beginning to approach ugly.

This, many times over. If you were a man you would shrug and say the drugs are making you look a bit bigger. end of. no big deal.

If you really want to change your iris colour you can get coloured contact lenses. I don't know why you feel you need to, but if it is that important to you...

You need to draft a letter to the nearest airport..... let them know. "in case".

Interesting. When I meet people with concerns about immigration (and it isn't actually a frequent topic of conversation, but when it does happen to crop up)

UKIP have done what only the LibDems have managed to do - change the subject of conversation. Libdems managed to get everyone talking about bin collections and street cleaning and road maintenance. They worked really hard in a few areas and changed the agenda, so in local elections there were seen as the good guys and gained support. They levered off this in the general elections.

UKIP have talked so incesantly about immigration and Europe that they have rallies support in the European elections that no doubt they will turn into general election support.

Then we look in amazement when UKIP gets local council seats, what is their policy on pot holes? Who knows, because they certainly don't.
