If you want to get girly, it seems a pretty safe place to - to me, at least. I'm not going to complain. The only thing I'd say is - bearing in mind I've no idea how long you've been painting your nails - could it just be that you've not been doing it since you were wee? We, I dunno. Been doing it for a year or two but as I said, I'm definitely cack-handed. My eyes barely talk to each other and appear to be in a state of armed conflict with my hands. Right handed but left eye dominant and with a cataract developing in that eye. Oh joy. Not.

Bollocks. A friend has got a new job. I'm really happy for him. But I'd have quite liked it myself.
Feeling conflicted, TBH, but I'm not going to say something and label myself an arse.

Listening to Lammy. All those fine words. Right of a nation to be independent - oh aye? Palestine too? I've never heard such a load of self-righteous tosh. All words and no action from the lot of them!

He was happy to shake hands with an Israeli minister recently, and has received a significant amount of money from pro-Israel lobbyists, you'll be surprised to hear.

But I will go with Zou's suggestion once I've thought a form of words.

Bunch of hypocrites the lot of them.

A couple of days ago I grabbed what, to me, was a new breakfast cereal off the shelf at Lidl. Cinnamon squares or some such.
I've enjoyed a couple of bowls of it until, this morning, I read the box. 25% of it is SUGAR!!!!!

That's why this last summer I made my own muesli to keep my oats intake up when it's too warm for porridge (good for cholesterol... mind you, I've been eating porridge every morning all winter for years!) - all the sugar in it came from the fruit I added.
Oats, chopped dates, raisins/sultanas, crushed hazelnuts, a few mixed seeds - who needs to add extra sugar, and it doesn't take that long to make up a week or two's worth.
I'm waiting for smart-arse DIY-ers to be added to the WGMG list now.
