Remando I'm really not afraid of death, because I know that I have absolutely no control at all over what happens when we die, so I see it as pointless worrying. And we are all in the same boat, so to speak, it will happen to us all. I do try to think positively...

Remando While it is really great to hear those three little words uttered by your loved one, face to face, I think I 'feel' it more when my moved one (non-existant at the moment, however!) DOES something to show it, without there being any other motive behind...

Remando Blimey that's very strange; the saying is true, you really do learn something new every day. My step dad is very weird, he can eat a big old onion RAW. He eats them like apples. Yuck.

Remando Sorry to hear about your burnt-smelling microwave! Well, what I do (which helps clean the inside too) is to mix a pint of water with lots of lemon juice (maybe juice three, or buy some liquid lemon) and then put it in a microwavable bowl, and set the...

Remando @Remando (175) 21 Apr 08

Handbags, handbags, handbags!

Remando @Remando (175) 21 Apr 08

Now, I am not a materialistic person. I don't judge a person by their watch, for example. Rolex or teeny clock fixed with string, it's all the same to me. But I do love a good handbag. I don't have loads, many three or four, and I...
