I thought i would share the latest decision reached by my partner and myself. We are going to get a puppy! We live in a nice area with lots of parkland just out of our back gate, we love walking and the outdoors so a dog should be...

c1masters Thanks, we probably will go down the nearest dog pound when we have a better idea. Researching dogs has got to be more fulfilling then researching and ordering a new computer on line, which i did last week.

THats basically sums up what i want to know. i think that he was alright as a prime minster. He certainly meant well and kept the Tories out for a decade which you can't grumble at but, while we all hate him for his ridiculous...

c1masters Thats a tough one, i'm not sure either of them deserve it. It's a shame that they probably don't care that they don't deserve our forgiveness

Films on historical events have always been popular. Some of the old epics like Spartacus are classics, and others like Braveheart and Patriot have very little relationship to the historic events that they are supposed to be...

c1masters your right about that, there has been some real trash. Mel Gibson should stick to being a crazy ficticious cop. Glory always brings a tear to my eye - considering how true it keeps to the real events it manages to stay a very personal film.

c1masters Yes, it was hard to believe they were Clint Eastwood films, a brilliant concept. It's teh realism of these that really brings the past to life for me

I have been looking at houses on a newly built estate over the last couple of weeks as i am looking to move house. DO any builders or architects actually think that the tiny boxes that are apparently supposed to house our...

c1masters true enough, i appreciate the cost effectiveness of it all, but does cheap always need to mean without a soul? A garden would be a pull though

c1masters I feel in safe hands with this response; knowledgeable and with a heart. Buying older sounds like the way forward, better start saving the pennies.

c1masters Never met the guy before or since thankfully, he didn't last at Dave's house either, just left one day owing the rent. Such a great bloke obviously.

I started a new job in September, teaching in a school in the UK. Nice school, great kids and a small, successful team of subject staff who are committed, dynamic and thoroughly humourless. I started to think that it was me, but...

c1masters I don't really care what they think, but i do have to get through meetings with them. I know it is the kids that matter, but is it wrong to want your work to contain a bit more laughter? It would certainly help mecope with the long hours of work after the kids...

I just watched this movie yesterday, and it blew me away. Not only how true it is, but how true it is that certain succesful people keep it to themselves only for their benefit. I truly beleive there is more than enough of this...

c1masters I saw teh secret a couple of months ago after it was recommended to me by someone i met on an Anthony Robbins Course, and in my post Robbins euphoria i thought that it was the key to my future success. It does make sense, people who are positive about their...

c1masters This is really sound advice, thanks. the booking has been made for a joint councelling session and i am looking forward to finding out other ways of helping her through this. I have read books on grief but they do not compare with the testimonies of people...

European leaders are soon to meet in Berlin, celebrating 50 years of the EC. Yet European nations are divided on any way forward, European populations are sceptical of the institution and its relevance to their lives. Should...

c1masters I agree with some of this, it is expensive and there is the democratic deficit issue out there. There is also the horror of the rise of neo fascist parties across the continent to deal with. The EU needs reforming, that is why it needs a well thought out...

c1masters Thank you mobyfriend, you are quite right, this is all childhood stuff that is coming up. Your words do offer support - i suddenly got really emotional reading them, which i did not expect at all. Good advice on the councelling

George Galloway, the outspoken anti-war British MP, who's known for his colourful rhetoric and combative debating style, believes that Bush and Blair are criminals, responsible for the mass murder in the world, for the war, and...

c1masters George Galloway is quite correct in his analysis, and boy does he know it. My problem with him stems from the fact that before the war he went out to Iraq, shook hands with Saddam and called him a man of courage and integrity. YOu can accept that the war was...

First let me say that we should never have ever gone into invade Iraq. It was a stupid ideologically inspired piece of flawed idiocy that relied on governments lying to people at every level - Saddam had weapons of mass...

c1masters totally with you there, the only possible excuse for war is self defence or to prevent another, more terrible evil. The world needed to stand up to Hitler in 1938, not in 1939, even if you were not Polish and weren't directly threatened. I agree that the UN...
