    This isn't my first experience , but it hacked me right off when I hear people slag off the nhs .There may be issues financially rtf but at the business end , they are brilliant . Just a shame some " Patients " take the piss .

    Yep, everybody seems to want to talk it down. But, I think they do a tremendous job. The teachers always want a pay rise, but imagine a job where you don;t get six weeks off in the summer, or paid well. That's harsher.

    A few years ago we planted rhubarb here in Mallorca. It thrived for a few years, but reading your comment, it would appear we need some fresh ones.

    The doctor at Man City has spoken to players about the use of snus (something I have never heard of but then I have a brain). Vardy says that he has used it (see point about having a brain). A perfect product if you want to give yourself mouth or tongue cancer....not only a possible killer, but can be terribly disfiguring.

    Vardy can vouch for that.

    Massively undervalued footballer until he left this country. Ahead of his time

    Very popular in Sweden when I was working there. All the guys in the warehouse (where, obviously, it wasn’t safe to smoke) used it and I thought it was awful. As you say, Fran, very big issue in oral cancers - not very clever indeed

    Anyone remember Skol Bandits that were popular back in the 80’s? Similar principle to snus, but they ended up being banned because of the cancer risks.

    Just bought myself an Easter egg (well, somebody had too_O) and noticed the box has the number of calories and fat content listed PER 25G. I don't understand....are they implying that you can eat less than a whole egg. Not on my watch. :emoticon-0110-tongu

    What they're saying Fran, is that it is possible to eat one in several bites rather than just shoving your face into the box and scoffing it, hence the breakdown of calories per bite

    Reminds me of when I visited a friend when she was feeding her new grandson. She had been eating chocolate and his mouth suddenly discovered one of her fingers. His eyes nearly popped with joy and he started slathering all over her hand....as he tried to eat her. He must have been so disappointed to discover his Gran wasn't made of chocolate.
