Yellow Rose Reference: Oh I hope Brisket's not annoyed with what I said lol Of course I'm not annoyed Yellow Rose. I thought your comments were amusing Funnily enough I am always wary about using a Z in this way, and I often check first. But this time I just guessed. Serves me right! However it did give you a chance to play with the word.

Technical help please
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing Reference: the IE8 seems a bit of a pain in the behind. I use FireFox most of the time now. When I have used IE8 it has seemed ok, but maybe if I was using it constantly it would be a different story. I'm still using IE6 at work. It's a bit of a pain, but I've always put that down to its slowness because it's so old. [ more ]
cologne 1 Reference: Addendum:- If you upgrade to another version of IE you will need to do the 'fix' again as the fix only applies to the browser and version that you are using at the time you do the 'fix'. Thanks fluffy. I saw something about that and, TBH, the IE8 seems a bit of a pain in the behind. [ more ]

Yogi19 Usually, I drink Lucozade if I'm ill, although I do like hot orange squash with some honey, if I have a cold. I like Heinz cream of chicken soup when I start to feel a bit better. I never have it at any other time. Goes back to my childhood. [ more ]

I googled my cramp question instead of bothering you lot, soz!
Blackpudlian Reference: Quinine is in tonic water, and many people (especially elderly) are prescribed Quinine Sulphate tablets to take at night. But unfortunately they can cause constipation (and make your stoold black.) I am on the wonderful Quinine Sulphate tablets (and I'm not THAT old) and they little miracles for cramp. Fortunately, my stools are still pine coloured. If you go for the tonic water, drink Diet Tonic Water as it has an extra ingredient that helps the cramp. I also have pins &... [ more ]
El Loro Reference: Sazbomb I dunno whether I should see the doc about the pins and needles... doesn't seem right If you have been getting pins and needles in your hand for some time for no obvious reason, you should talk to your doctor. The doctor will either be able to reassure you that there is nothing wrong or will be able to help you, but you are not wasting your time and you are not wasting the doctor's time by seeing him or her - that is what they are there for. Pins and needles in themselves... [ more ]

The M25....
Garage Joe I very rarely venture out onto Motorways but I do admire the M40 between Birmingham and Oxford lane-end. The worst IMO is the A1 from Chester-le-street towards the airport. It's quicker and safer (providing you don't show your teeth or look directly at the lerkals) to drive through the centre of the toon. [ more ]
Smarting Buttocks Reference:Isadora] .... I was really worried by all the lorries at one point. I always worry about lorries as well, especially as the foreign ones which are left hand drive as I think they are not quite so used to looking to their right in this country when they change lanes.

Smarting Buttocks Reference irtyprettygirlthing Reference: Was once trapped on there for 6 hours - half my 12 hour shift. yeah... I've been trapped just after the Leatherhead turn off (going anticlockwise) for about 6 hours once. There'd been a multi vehicle accident by the Clackett Lane services! Thats where I was - the Surrey stretch is apparently the most accident prone section. Just read your other post and thought "yikes" Lucky escape. [ more ]

Those 'Eggheads'
Jenny Poor Daphne is letting herself down lately. Yesterday, I think, she got all three of her questions wrong! I think that is unheard of for her. She seemed really bothered by it, as this week she's also not been on best form. Even her guesses have been wrong, and she's usually good at them! [ more ]
Aimee I find Daphne irrating as well, she sits there huffing and puffing and then gives the right answer she knew it all along [ more ]
Cosmopolitan What really gets on my pips is when Daphne doesn't know the answer she automatically starts tutting and moaning, and then huffs and sighs in a 'don't blame me' kind of way. Yet when anyone else from the Eggheads stumbles over a Q she sits there mouthing, shaking her head and rolls her eyes. She's 'orrible! [ more ]

squiggle EL unfortunately my dear husband was one of the unlucky percentage who did not smoke and drank only moderately. He did work for Royal Mail though and of course there was no ban on smoking in the building then so it would have been thick with smoke. We will never know the cause of course. [ more ]
El Loro On ths subject of mouth cancer, this is from the NHS Choices site. It is estimated that 90% of cases are caused by smoking and/or prolonged and excessive alcohol consumption. People who both drink and smoke have a particularly high risk: they are more than 30 times more likely to develop mouth cancer than people who do not smoke or drink. The condition is two to three times more common in men than women (possibly because more men misuse alcohol than women). Most cases develop in people aged... [ more ]

El Loro i have been doing a bit of looking around and have found a couple of things which might be of interest to brisket etc. Here's a link to a website for Matt McCooey where you will find out more about him. Amongst other details, it says that he is a bilingual British Japanese actor. And on the home page it mentions Colin the Ninja. Not only is he an actor but this is a short film which he wrote and directed. I suppose you expect me to come up with more details about this film such as what is it... [ more ]
