Just watching the program about Harley Street... :eek: They talking about the staying healthy program one of these people does, it cost £10K a year! Sheesh, I've spent hours on Grauniad CiF the last few days, spending that amount of money on pretend medicine like this seems all wrong to me. A fool and her (seems to be mainly wimen) are soon parted.

I know exactly what you mean, people spending on carp when their are millions of real people who could spend a fraction of that and change their lives....but if rich people don't spend their money and save it all or spend it overseas then it is very bad for the economy.

I do laugh when its on the news, "2 inches of snow, oh no london has stopped", meanwhile "Scotland has 10 feet of snow, they are getting on with it"

That's what happens when the snow plough is stuck in a traffic jam.

Riding an exercise bike until she's knackered. Still normal.
What they're doing isn't exactly fake medicine but it's a wonderland for hypochondriacs who want some significance. She can pay for it. Over and over again.

I have had some EFT. It was powerful and I think it is really valuable. I'm not sure his case is quite the right one to show how it works best.

Okay. What are they doing to her now? That is snake oil. She should go and see the EFT lady and sort out her insecurities instead, save a load of money.

I've ended up with 'Skint' (Ch4) which is looking at some, well, skint people in Merthyr Tydfil.
It has subtitles (not convinced they're necessary).

Doozergirl

So she's physically fine, but miserable. They send her out the door with a clean bill of health.

If they fixed whatever it is that her heart is yearning for, she wouldn't need them. They have no incentive to help.

Nikkster, your knockers page with the rude knockers as well as your lovely one? Totally by change I stumbled on a door pull for an internal door of magnificent dimensions that put those knockers to shame. I cannot link it to here because there are no nice woodpeckers In fact although its all in poor taste I quite gasped over this ones beautiful craftsmanship. It helps that its in bronze which is a material I love.

I thought it would be great for the blokes ' loos of a club but then thought the equivalent for the women's loos might be more time consuming for cleaning staff to polish well creating a disparity.

This is all gobbledygook to me, as couldn't get to loads of stuff on the knockers page. Suspect cos using Windows 8.1 I seem to have probs with some other sites as well. Fortunately most of the shopping sites are Win8 compliant! :j :rotfl:

Well, I'm sure I'll treat you all to pics of my mythical front door + the overthought woodpecker door knocker if and when they are finally in situ!

Can't wait to see! :j I remember that pic of woodpecker knocker on that sell house website, gosh that's a while ago now. We have glass and plastic front door so knocker not really an option. We have a wireless bell that you can choose a load of stuff from. It's really naff, plus it needs new batteries as the stupid tune I chose sounds off now - kind of goes weeohweeoh so need to fix before it dies completely! :rotfl:

I watched the Harley St prog too. Had never heard of EFT before, sounded like mumbo jumbo but was about the only treatment that they showed that actually worked. Really pleased that the Asian woman fell pregnant again.
