I'm not sure if this shouldn't be under Nature so apologises if wrong. Are there any ABers who pick and eat wild mushrooms? We went for a walk through our local beechwoods today with our neighbours...
My wife and I have just enjoyed a lovely steak at our local Beefeater. When we asked for the garlic mayonnaise dressing we've had before the waitress brought us garlic butter instead. We've never seen...

Our veritable sleuth and his companion are camping out on the moors one night during an investigation into a particularly puzzling case. Following a long day, Dr. Watson is snoring soundly in his...
An Englishman decides he's had enough of working for years in the tax office so he buys himself a cottage on a remote Scottish island. After driving to Scotland and taking the ferry to an island, he...
I'm 48 and I've never had children but I'm astonished at the rubbish I see advertised on the TV aimed directly at children.There are 'deals' from KFC, McDonalds, Burger King etc - and they look...
Could someone tell me how to do this please. I've just answered two posts in Shopping and Animals, both of which would have benefited from the addition of a link to a webpage. I'm sure it must be easy...

I'm sorry if this is the wrong section but I can't think where else to ask. How do I get a picture to accompany my posts as many ABers have? I have plenty of photos saved on my computer. I've looked...
I hope this is the right section for this post - apologises if not. Since last year my wife and I have been receiving bank statements and letters for my step-daughter (S) who has never lived with us....
This is a follow on to my recent postings in Animals. I'm 48 and I've had a very unsettled sleep pattern for about 25 years. I have terrible insomnia which used to drive me half crazy until I learned...
