This is how I feel, too. I lost a good friend to a berry aneurism when she was 19 and I was 18. Even though I had just started training to be a nurse and had seen death several times at that age, the death of a (young) friend really pulls everything into perspective. My 54th birthday this year...

Thanks rainbow. I have had luck with CS in the past, will have to see what they say. Annoys me that they are willing to send to an outlet for resale at a silly price but not make it worth a customers while to keep it a higher reduced price!

My LG TSV arrived today and I was so disappointed that the eye palate is smashed up. I have checked and they are out of stock. Has anyone ever managed to get compensation for part of a kit in these circumstances? I like all the other pieces and the brush is fabulous too, so I don't really want...

Thanks Holmca but I really want to take this to the top. I am sick of being fobbed off and told different things by different people and then being called a liar!

Hi folks. I have tried unsuccessfully to find a thread that lists this and wonder if anyone knows the current contact email for the 'boss'? I really need to lodge a complaint as I am getting nowhere with the customer service bods who all seem to have had a grey matter bypass today! Many thanks...

The old polio vaccine,the one given on a sugar cube, was a live one, and caused problems in some of the families I was involved with (as a health visitor) because occasionally an older family member wouldn't be covered and would get exposed to the virus through changing the child's nappy. I...

Tiddly, I did say it was several years ago when I saw her. She had several layers of clothes on and still looked painfully thin- from what you say she has gained weight since then. Perhaps she also got told to be friendlier ( or maybe she was ill when I saw her and hence not wanting to circulate?)

She was one of my favourite models. I read an article with her once where she stated she was one of the first Wonderbra models- they wanted someone smaller to show the improvement to be had ( she said she was a B cup back then.) my prayers go out to her family- she was at least very well loved.

I can't stand her. I have seen her caught out in lies so many times- once in front of Liz Earle when she contradicted something she had said minutes earlier in the programme. Liz's face was a picture! She is a hard sell saleswoman but completely turns me off a product. Cringeworthy.i saw her at...

I agreed with her sentiments. We should be speaking up more about the premature sexualisation of children. I am aghast at some of the things my friends/people at school dress their kids in. I also agree with her that is is nigh on impossible to turn the clock back, so we should be trying to halt...

I wish it showed on our account what easy pays we have going. If it is on there I can never see it!

I normally find that if I firmly ask to speak to a manager, eventually I get a response I am satisfied with. I had a horrible experience with a rubbish PC a few years ago, and since then I just use the broken record technique, reference trading standards or do whatever I need to get my way. If...

When you have a potentially fatal illness like Julia, I think it is forgivable that she wants a fuss:every birthday becomes a major achievement and milestone- I am 53 next week and am a 4 year survivor of colon cancer, so that's my twopennorth ;)

I think Joy is gorgeous. I remember seeing her on a programmes with her daughter a few years ago, and thought then that she has great self esteem and I wish I could bottle it and give some to my daughter! I remember her daughter wanted her to be 'made under' a little as she felt she dressed too...

Considering the mammoth health problem Julia is currently dealing with (possibly terminal-it killed a good friend of mine) I am surprised she is even at work. To expect her to start the show bare faced ( is that what you were wanting ?)under these circumstances is pretty harsh.

This is my experience, as well. I have saved a fortune on detergent and conditioner sonce I have used wash balls and ecoegg. I agree about the bliddy thing coming apart, though! I still have the little black beads appearing on the filter every now and then-dread to think whether my washer may...

It's interesting the different info given out by doctors. I was told by my Specialist at St Marks that OTC Vit d is perfectly acceptable- it's the type you need individually that matters. As a Health Visitor I was told to recommend OTC Vit d supplements to anyone I thought at risk after...

I went to Tesco on Saturday, the local food bank had a display and they were asking everyone to buy just one item to donate on the way out. I bought a bagful as I didn't know when I would see them collecting again, but I didn't see anyone else donating and they had very little in the boxes-this...

His suite is £5,100 PER NIGHT. I wonder how many Carpy coats he had to sell, and poor animals he skinned, to afford that? Sorry the title should say CLARIDGES

In order to return under DSR, the item has to be resaleable-ie, unused. So you can't use cosmetics or toiletries and then return under DSR. Obviously you can try them and return them, but you wouldn't get your outward p&p back if they notice you have opened them.
