anyone gonna watch the bloke die on BBC..?
Former Member I saw it and there was nothing wrong with it. It was very sensitively dealt with and the old chap just simply looked as if he had fallen asleep. Petercat, I agree that it's ridiculous how people judge something and slate it and demean it without even seeing it. Of course, it would be unwise to watch it of you have recentl been bereaved, but as I haven't (fortunately) for some 10 years now, I had no issue with it. There was a 'warning' before the show, that someone dies in the show, and the... [ more ]
Cinds Originally Posted by Veggieburger: Haven't watched it so not qualified to talk about how they covered it. But PeterCat is right in that generations ago people in our Western culture were much more likely to have been around death (and birth for that matter) and viewed in more as a natural part of life. My mum died in my arms in the hospice and I was glad I was there. I never had all the bad wondering that I had after my father died with none of the family there as he passed. If this man in...

jacksonb i watched it and i watched last weeks one too. the first one was about the lottery of birth and how we develop, i found it riveting, this second prog was about the other end of life , it wasn't depressing or maudlin or sensationalist, i hadn't realised there had been a hoohaa about it, i just thought it was a gentle programme that treated death as part of life.

Former Member Hi Tina, cant add anymore to what has been said, been there myself. Except for saying, just keep your eyes on whats going on, he sounds a bit controlling to me, she will have to see that for herself [ more ]
Tina thanks everyone for your replys [ more ]
Tina Originally Posted by Karma_: Hmmm she's 22 so not a lot you can do really except be there for her. You can try to advise her, but when someone's involved with someone, especially with someone controlling and insecure, they don't hear what is obvious to everyone else or even themselves. Going round there and ripping his nuts off may make you feel better, but your daughter needs to realise what this guy is about for herself if he is type of fella that you think he is. Saying that though,... [ more ]

Whats in a sandwich/wrap
James Well I found the right chutney.. It's made by a company called English Provender Co. The spicey apple chutney is a dead ringer for the one in my favorite wrap above. (even though it's not the same fruit) I am looking for the best Stonebaked flatbread to match it. The flatbread is sooo soft and perfect you would not believe it. Not like the hard rubbish you get in stores. I'm even considering getting a baking stone and trying to make them myself. [ more ]

Important - information on identifying a stroke..
Former Member Ta Kaffy! I'm good ta, spinal fluid pressure is pretty much controlled by meds for now( bloomin altitude sickness tablets! ! ) and lumbar punctures do the job if the tabs don't , but had the right drugs been there at the right time,I'd have been sorted. I think half the trouble is the availability of scanners, they pinpoint pretty quickly if it's a bleed or a block, and the right action can be taken then, but very few people get tested in time.
