A tip when trying to Post a Reply doesn't work
El LoroEl Loro
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing Oops! I've been forgetting to keep an eye on the posting thing. I don't THINK I've had any problem recently, but can't be 100% sure. [ more ]
El Loro I have come to the conclusion that the reply bug is caused by a conflict between Firefox and the antivirus s/w I use (Bullguard) which has a Safe Browsing Toolbar as an extension. I have seen comments that this toolbar caused Firefox to hang when on Google and other sites. So I doubt whether Seattle can do anything to overcome this, so I will just put up with it. [ more ]
El Loro I posted too soon, the bug where the icons don't appear is still happening, so I've reported this back to Social Strata. [ more ]

Awwwwwwwww Eddie Stobart has died
Soozy WooSoozy Woo
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing As far as I can see the Eddie Stobart who started and named the firm is 80 and still alive. His son Edward then built the company up to a household name and is the person who has just died from a suspected heart attack. But at 56 it is very sad. However he sold the company to his brother William a while back and no longer played an active part. [ more ]

New Breastfeeding Doll for Girls - Good Idea?
TempsTemps
Garage Joe I wasn't blessed with sisters, daughters or granddaughters (TF!) so I'm not an expert, but I've always been interested in all this nature/nurture business. From the descriptions and comments this all seems relatively harmless. My ten month old grandson seems to want to destroy and dismantle everything. A brief ban on toy weapons led to my son biting gun shapes out of toast. Likewise there must be some latent mothering nature in little girls. Before I had descendants I assumed all such... [ more ]
machel there are two separate points here a) breastfeeding is natural, and b) a child's play. for the first point a toy is not needed - new mums will get all the support they need from health care professionals, for the second point play should stimulate the imagination (i'm not going into depth its a long time since i went to uni) both are separate issues.

Blizz'ard Originally Posted by Cinds: I wish I'd had one of those as a kid. I always breast fed my dolls (although I had to make the sucking noise myself), and they grew up very happy individuals who are now living fully rounded lives in the attic. Even though I am the youngest in my family, breastfeeding was always something I was aware of. I find it more upsetting that it's not accepted as a natural thing. and [ more ]

Disney messes with "Miss Marple"
kattymieowwkattymieoww
Yellow Rose When I was younger I read every book Agatha Christie wrote. I loved to get lost in them and devour every twist and turn of the mysteries. My favourite character was Miss Marples, the more I read of her sleuthing the more I conjured up an image of what I thought she'd be like in personality, behaviour and even appearance. I remember watching a film with Margaret Rutherford as Miss Marple and as much I'd enjoyed other Rutherford films - I love the old films -she wasn't "my" Miss Marple at all. [ more ]
