    Celebrities that most people think are dead but are alive as of today 9/9/2016

    It may come as a bit of a shock, but Maj is not a "celebrity" - she has a proper (!) job, she doesn't appear on daytime game shows.

    No, I think you're wrong - he died when he was in his 70s, just after the Crimean War.

    I need help getting into laptop, advice please

    I was thinking they were suggesting he go to a psychiatrist - I guess we're all on different wavelengths !

    The Southern Health Trust

    You've got to love the line they gave out about the new post. So, they created a role specifically for this woman and they say "she is uniquely suited to it" - of course, she is, they created it for her. I'm all for people being well paid for doing a good job, but rewarding failure is simply...

    Should Stephens start on Saturday?

    Of course - you play your best team. If he isn't inclined to perform, that's v.unprofessional and a bad sign to any future suitors.

    Things that you bought that were a MASSIVE disappointment

    A WD personal cloud. 4 tb of memory, which sounds good, but the copy rate to it is horrendously slow. I can copy one of my Android projects from one laptop to the other in about a minute - copying it to the cloud can take over 10 minutes. It wouldn't be quite so bad if I could set up a...

    Help to find a dog a home: Please have a read.

    A good news story to brighten the day. I would love a dog - I have the space and grew up surrounded by them, but I don't think my 2 felines would stand for it.

    The US Open tennis 2016

    In a way this match was too easy for Murray, it was more like a first round match. Far too many unforced errors and his first serve was pretty awful. He picked it up after the second set, once the started concentrating properly and not going for too many winners when they weren't there. He was...

    Keith Vaz - Oh dear!

    In what way ? He's admitted it so they are telling the truth - kinda their job, really.

    A funny side to colonoscopy.

    Hmmm, I've had a few - the last one found a 5 inch tumour in my bowel. I was quite relieved they'd found something at last, I'd had all the CT scans, MRI scans, blood tests, endoscopies etc. and they'd found nothing to explain why I was in excruciating pain, sometimes needing morphine. The...

    Keith Vaz - Oh dear!

    What I never understand - if you are in a position of public scrutiny, how can you possibly believe that these things will not get out into the public arena. Arrogance ? I don't know. I quite liked him, really, he always asked quite awkward questions in the select committee - the questions we...

    The US Open tennis 2016

    I'm not so sure. He may be fresher, but these top guys use these early round matches to sharpen up so they're at their best come the deeper rounds. He needs game-time especially with doubts over his injuries, but we'll see - he's still the best player at his best. Will be interesting to see what...

    The US Open tennis 2016

    I don't fancy your bets. Nishikori is nowhere near in form to be winning this, and there are several better players than him anyway. As for Agie Radwanska, I like her a lot, but she struggled to get past Broady, so I wouldn't fancy her chances much, she doesn't have the game some of them do...

    The Striker Issue!!

    No, not just you. A striker would have been nice, but every single club are after them, so getting one is one of the hardest things any club has to do, and probably pay over the odds. It's all very well saying pay oodles because when we reach the promised land we'll be loaded, but it really...

    Not quite the same ring to it as "Free Nelson Mandela", but I'll buy the T-shirt anyway.

    Home cures for ailments.

    Did all that and more with the physio. No difference. 18 months doesn't sound good, but I've heard all sorts of times up to 5 years - for a postman, which must be awful. Not really believing in coincidences, this Plantar cropped up immediately after I had major surgery last summer, but I can't...

    Most agonising pain?

    I've been on Allopurinol for, maybe 15 years. I had several attacks before they put me on it, not one since, 100mg a day, no problem.
