My grandmother is in her eighties now, and I worry about her because she is beginning to go senile as well as having trouble taking care of herself properly. She has a lot of pride but even she admits she is going downhill, she used to enjoy growing lots of vegetables and flowers, and now both her gardens have run to ruin because she just can't take care of them any more. Yet she still manages ...

My kids are still too young for proper board games. The only one I own is Disney Monopoly, which my partner bought for me last Christmas, I love playing Monopoly but he always cheats (jumping an extra step or two to avoid paying out) and thinks I don't notice! The kids have games like Hungry Hippos and magnetic fishing, and this Christmas they are getting a shark game where you press the teeth ...

I don't understand how this site works, I tried it a couple of days ago but didn't get any credits when I should have, so I got bored and left it.

Sounds like one of those not so amusing scare emails people send. Like the hoax emails with threats if you don't pass them on. I've never heard of this and I'm not going to believe it just because an email says its happening.

Mine goes up every year on 1st December, and is put away again between 2nd and 6th January. My mum thinks its bad luck to keep it on display past 6th January, I don't know why but its easier not to argue with her[em]lol[/em]

I don't tell my kids not to speak to strangers, because I don't need to - they're always with me, and I can see who they're talking to. If we are shopping or in the library or something, I just tell them to stay where I can see them and they can see me, and they do. So as yet, I haven't needed to discuss stranger danger with them, but I will when they are old enough to be let out of my sight.

I like both, but I noticed that there were a few things missing in the films, which seemed to be important parts of the storyline when I read the books. I do like the films though, and I'm looking forward to seeing the last one as soon as I can

I ask straight away why they're calling, and how they got my details. Not that they tell you anyway, but I get angry when these people just call me up and address me by my first name - excuse me, stranger, we're not on first name terms! Then I ask for their number and explain that I feel its wrong for them to have my unlisted number, and withhold theirs when they call. At this point they're des...

I sell on eBay all the time, I usually have around 40-50 items listed and probably sell about 7 or 8 each week. I don't make a lot as most of the things I sell go for 99p or a little bit more, but as I'm a full time mum and have no personal income, it helps get us through each month.
