Sqad, we had a letter today with the 'results' of the lip biopsy & viral swab. OH is baffling medical science again (honestly, not the first time if you translate some letters from specialists in...
OK, maybe we are weird, but it is the major channel we watch. We also have a weird T.V. in that the people who set it up when we bought it on our return from France, seemed to tune to odd channels....
A month or so ago I mentioned that OH had a dark mark that had become crusty on his lower lip. You, quite rightly, told me to keep an eye on it and act if it bled etc.. Well, just after Christmas it...
Hello, Our (probably about 13 yrs. old) rescued mongrel terrier X with everything you have ever heard of, went to the vet's. today for his usual boosters. Everything fine (weight etc.) until she...

Hi, just finished the Herculis, but I am left with 'Rose' from Sat. and have 'Cold' as a supposed match. I can't think of anything that would relate these words. Any help out there? Thanks in advance....
This is a horribly sad and difficult time for me and many people I love. My dear God-child (33) was found dead on Wednesday. He suffered from depressive attacks but had been on a high at the weekend...
Following discovery that my younger daughter is actually still married to the husband she was divorcing some years ago - I am faced with a quandary. (See earlier post.) My opinion of him is...
14A.... Stupid for the most part, that's 12! 4 letters: S - L - Could be Sill (short for silly) or Sold (12 A is Left on the shelf) or Self (elf sounds like a bit of twelve?). Can't parse and it's the...
I just don't know all the details, but anyone's educated guess would help. 2018 (Summer) my younger daughter's marriage broke up due husband's serial infidelity. He refused to leave the house & took...
My daughter & family (no small children) took over an 8 yr. old female rescue greyhound about 4 years ago. 'Cookie' had the misfortune to win several races when young and so was used mercilessly to...
