  1. pickle you indeed lucky, my mum had ovarian cancer too- knew there was something wrong-ignored it to begin -then dr couold not find it- dead 3 months later.
  2. my mum refused chemo- she did not want all her hair to fall out- she was 70 and had it everywhere- they offered it as a last chance but she just said no. i think its very personal. but the wheat grass stuff etc is clutching at straws. waste of money.trouble is the balance between "not wanting to be any trouble " v wanting them to be around ( with all the psychologiacl side effects thrown in). is she happy with her life? is she a fighter?
  3. i did have a quick look in evans today but realise you need to have a bike to sit on to get a feel for it- I have ben advised to see lincoln at brixton cycles, but not sure if thats 'cos he a handsome fella or he is good at saddles! the brooks saddle looks like the equivalent of leather hiking boots- lots of wearing in!.
  4. i think kensal green way might be the last outpost- probably better to loookat properties with their own parkingif it is very important to you. you know we will eventually all have to pay to park on the roads.
  5. essential on a cornish pasty and in a bacon sandwich.
  6. i think your right = partner is a cycle coach so size is sorted, but men dont really get women's anatomy- its all well and good him saying get it from wiggle but I think I have to try some out first- I always find cycle shops staffed by either ignorant but well meaning or techy type men and feel embarrassed to ask about womens saddles- I see a Selle Italia is quite pricey- but what price comfort- any other recommendations?
  7. all getting a bit nasty now- anyone recommend a good employment lawyer? apparently one based in town would be better. Thanks
  8. thanks Laddymuck- but the main issue is the ladies saddle- i have a fair amount of natural padding anyway- but I have always found it difficult to sit on a saddle for more than 45 mins. More of a ladies question really.gel? vents/ brands? any recommendations? Decathlon do not have experienced women cyclists on hand- Thanks
  9. managed to have my bicycle pinched-ggrr- but will borrow my sons for a while-can anyone recommned a particular ladies saddle? I think its fair to say I have a fair amount of matural padding anyway, butI need to cycle 45 miles one day in Septemebr, and need to be able to function the next day. My previous saddle was a huge squashy gel one, but I had been told that was doing me no favours.
  10. can we stop this thread now? i don't think it is helping anyone. Especially for those that attend the school and have been happy there until now.
  11. at 4 weeks you are better off with a sling if possible.
  12. lets hope this scares all the other schools that have similar practices into cleaning up their act.
  13. we went last year- last minute with 2 teenagers- it was really good for a week, but could not manage 2 weeks.there was enough free stuff to keep you going, although the free "introduction to sailing etc" was not very inspiring- the additional lessons you pay for were good. The meals are so generous that a sandwich is all you need at lunchtime.
  14. i only saw the last 10 mins, but agian I thought aren't we lucky.
  15. dont Mr and Mrs Middleton sell this stuff by post?
  16. but arent they for charity? poor homeless boys??::o
  17. it would be much cheaper to have it "cut back".
  18. i could not help noticing the plasters on his nose kept coming and going between scenes.
  19. if you can only work during school hours, you might easily find an au pair with a bit of spare time that will help you out on a regular or ad hoc basis.
  20. turns out the meeting was a warning to let me know the meeting is this week - so i can arm myself with a taperecorder or bring someone with me? why jsut me I ask ? cost cutting they say ( i think "it it because i am the only woman inthis department and work part time?" i also think "why has this not been mentioned in the past 12 months and i have never had a personal appraisal etc in the 3.5 years i have been here.") I feel like stamping my foot.
  21. i watched it a few weeks ago and cannot understand why i knew all the words- why is that i cant find things in my house but can singa long a Gallager and lyle , Heart on my sleeve. and the hair flicks!
  22. or you could say you would like to work 1% less for the same money. full time thats 2 days!!
  23. you buy the white icing, and you put drops of black colouring - or rather it is a paste you add-in it- then you kind of massage them in- a drop at a time until it is absorbed in.i think i may have some if you need some desperately ( just checked its a few years past its date!) i have not tried a food colouring pen but you can use a paintbrush - thin -and a bottle of food colouring
  24. Thanks everyone x fingers crossed
