I watched a tv programme with my aged relatives recently which has set off a lot of discussions about WWII. The programme informed us that at the outbreak of the war the UK imported 90% of its wheat...
I watched the first episode of the new series last night. Did I imagine it or was there a lot of 80s song lyrics in the script, especially from Martin Kemp's character?
The tooth supporting a two tooth bridge has badly decayed and needs to be extracted. This means the bridge would have to be cut out leaving a three tooth gap. My NHS dentist stated categorically that...
I broke a large lower back tooth on Friday night and it is causing my tongue to be sore. I have a dental appointment tomorrow. This morning my tonsils are very sore and swollen and I am concerned that...

I know nothing about underfloor heating or buildings. My kitchen floor has floorboards with a void underneath approx 3' deep. I don't know if that is standard. I would love to install underfloor...
I've been suffering for a couple of weeks, disrupted sleep and difficulty eating. OTC painkillers barely touch it. A little tube of Oraljel has worked wonders - totally pain free. If anyone else is...
Had my doubts about the new series from the USA - no Clive Anderson or Tony Slatterly but I'm hooked. I've been crying with belly laughter, lots of familiar faces and the new faces are great to. Much...
I have a free standing all electric cooker with an induction hob and a pyrolytic oven. It is getting on a bit now and Bosch no longer make a cooker with those two essential functions and I can't find...
