    TV or Radio - If you had to ditch one...

    i think jung once said: that to be normal is the ideal aim of the unsuccessful ;) we have a tv but it is not connected to an aerial/sky box or anything. we use it for dvd (though i cannot remember the last time we watched one - must be why we have 6 kids!) and for the PS3 and the wii. i don't...

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    I agree with you. Once I am gone they can pick over my carcass and take whatever they want, the same for my husband and all my children are registered as well. But not everyone thinks that way and while not wanting to donate is alien to me that is their choice. I don't think the system we have...

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    >Whilst i appreciate your religious views there are thousands of people on the donor waiting list who would easily recieve organs if it was opt out. Many people who do die prematurely are not on the donor list for 1 reason "I will get around to registering tomorrow. But for some tomorrow never...

    NFL is back!!

    i don't think the titans are that good either, i think on the whole the other teams are weaker (injuries etc.) and in turn that has made the titans seem better than they actually are. gutted to have not been out for an ncaa game this season. usually try and get to two. my brother is over next...

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    I think the optimum time for a heart from removal to transplant is 4 hours. Bone marrow is different, it can be frozen for years.

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    Your organs can already (and do) go anywhere in the European Union if the need arises and no one in the UK is a suitable recipiant. That agreement has been in place for a while. Anastasia's marrow came from an English man registered and living in Italy.

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    That is one of my many concerns about if we did change to an opt out system. I wonder how much of Brown's opinion that we should be opt out is clouded by his son's illness. I hope none but I do wonder. I think rather than arguing about should it be an opt in/out register all this energy spent...

    Organ donation-Presumed consent debate.....

    My little girl died because she did not get the liver transplant she so desperately needed. I think it should remain opt in, but with far greater education about donor registration from everything blood, marrow through to organs after death. I have worked hard in our local area to get more...

    How often do you WAKE UP during the night?

    Last night five times but I am 38 weeks pregnant. Usually get up at least once for the toilet and then three or four times for the children. Sleep? My son used to get up for the toilet but we stopped him drinking after 6pm and now he sleeps through. Maybe you drink too much in the evening or...

    Taking the 'paint pot' seriously yet?

    £100k for the winners. The total prize fund for the entire competition is only just over £400k.

    The weather!!

    We've had no power since about 10am this morning. They say it might be out until midnight. It has finally stopped raining, our fields are flooded and the beasts stranded. The water goes over my wellies and I gave up wading my way through to rescue them :( It is horrible. How long until spring?

    Wemberley, Wemberley...

    How wonderful, HKFC. Our school opted out of the same tournament this year in preference of bleedin' rugby. Good luck to them!
