We are hoping to get a new kitchen installed (the cabinets we inherited when we moved in 20 years ago are falling apart). Any good tips? Funny stories about what you did wrong? Put a new kitchen in the farm last summer and put the old one in our quarters. Of course the brand new dishwasher leaked l...

Re: Leavers Bible

I think it was David (sejintenev) who signed off with Deuteronomy 22:11. I had to check it out! "Thou shalt not wear a mingled stuff, wool and linen together". Quite right! Munch By chance see this week's signature from Proverbs which is specially for all mothers. If you think that is bad...

Hi Caroline, without wishing to be rude, I did A-level chemisty and seem to know more than you give me credit for. If your answer was "phenols and other aromatics account simultaneously for both colouring and falvour", why didn't you just say that, we're not stupid! Hendrik :) Because tha...

I use AVG and, touch wood, haven't had any viruses or spyware since I installed it. What I can't understand is - the Windows operating system is prone to all sorts of threats but if you use an AppleMac they cannot get any viruses. Surely Bill Gates and his huge empire have the resourses to make Win...

Wonderful. I can still 'see' that suit. I too was one of the 'also rans' at cookery, with my mother as a role model I didn't stand a chance. Fortunately my husband is a good cook and thanks to St Delia I am not bad either. Mary, pleeeeeeessssssssssssee If you are going to use a book try the Leith o...

I`ve always used AVG free, plus Spybot and AdAware - both free too. And Zone alarm - again, free. I was going to specify the same ones except that AVG is sometimes known as AVAST. You can google for all of them, download and installation is pretty straightforward - almost automatic. In the case of ...

The one question which is puzzling me is why has a Scotsman been put on the back of a Bank of England note? The Scots have their own notes and I am wondering if a famous Englishman or Welshman has ever been put on one of theirs. Scottish notes are not issued by any State or semi-State body. They ar...
