  1. How about spraying the matress directly .....
  2. That looks like a bad reaction to mozzie bites. I suffer badly if I get bitten. The bite site swells feels hard a large part of the surrounding area becomes red and inflamed The best thing I found to counter act the itch is believe it or not VICK and yes it works I also take ibuprofen and an anti histamine. My elderly neighbour told me about the VICK I was a bit skeptical but I thought give it a go and yes it works. I even use it as a repellent and yes it works also. If in doubt I would seek advice of a doctor.
  3. Hubbys employers solicitor did everything, the company albeit ****e paid for it. All we did was fill in the paperwork send it off book and pay for medicals and police checks.
  4. If you take hp you payva forfit if you pay it off early. If you take a loan with your bank you can make extra payments to pay off early. Or just save and have no loan
  5. I use both. Cant get yorkshire decaf tea in woolies so i pop into coles as they stock it. I nearly cried 4 years,ago when i spotted it.
  6. To deter cats from your plants ect orange peel or spray orange oil they really do not like citrus. Also helps to prevent furniture scratching
  7. Goose. Its lush and gamey and the fat makes lovely roast potatoes and parsnips Use to cook mine upside down the way my gran did .... Turkey tends to be drier than goose.
  8. Hi Anwen With respect I also stated that this is a general observation. I also stated that not all places are like this. Your opinion is noted re consideration and ridiculous. But all opinions are valid regardless if you agree or not. Can I also ask what is IMVHO?
  9. What is acceptable noise levels? Everyone has a different tolerance level. Sawing hammering power tools in the garden. Rave banging music from car stereos passing hooning neighbours shouting laughing stereo banging garden raving foul language in shopping centres streets gardens dogs barking kids crying screaming. Australias people have no consideration for others I am noticing. Elderly gentleman living by me fell in the shopping centre the other day no one stopped to help i find this bizarre .... I know not every where is the same. Are people afraid to say or do anything in todays society? Wales ever this noisey and un caring i really dont think so??? Or have i turned into an old grumpy person. We all experience annoyance from time to time how does everyone cope? This is,a general observance of late not a personal experience. Just thought I would put a different thread for discussion

    House sold!!

    Congrats. Our last house is under offer in the UK we made the decision to sell in June a year to the day we sold the last one. We thought it would take an age to sell as its a bit unusual and out of the way but after 3 months we had 3 offers in 3 days. Happy days now we dont have to pay to heat it over the winter period and pay council tax. Enjoy your last cold Christmas

  12. Personally i would say there are far nicer places in Oz to marry than Bali. Without the filth. Am bias im afraid been seen and wont go again... Yes there are beautiful settings for weddings there. My suggestion for Bali the grand palace and gardens. There will be space there and less tourists jostling to take pics we found it serene
  13. the fairly tale living the dream not reality unfortunately. does not give pitfalls and obstacles that one may find when actually living here. so no i do not watch

    summer?

    Dear lord only went to Scotland once on an August bank holiday weekend, it was freezing and the midgies ewww. We went up to Fort William in our MX5. It was 8 deg there 25 deg in Cornwall. I never ever let John forget it either as it was his idea. It drizzled constantly but the scenery was amazing .....
