i recently saw a photograph in an interior design magazine, maybe, of a bathroom with no mirror over the sink, but rather a plaque stating, "you look fine". in the past few days we have been redecorating one of our bathrooms and...

Eucalyptus As much as I'd love to say that I could live without a mirror, unfortunately for me it is totally impossibly. Firstly, if I turn up to work looking a mess then my manager would not be impressed and in uniform, it would not be a good way of representing the...

Every year, a species of tiny moth appear out of nowhere around spring time and seem to set up shop in my wardrobe. Inevitably, they bite through all of my clothes. I really need to find some sort of repellant. I have tried to...

I was browsing the internet today on my phone and looked up to find an advert in front of me on the train. It was advertising a service whereby you list your car and your location on a website and the times of day that you don't...

I was sat on an underground train today on my way to work and a mother had her baby sat on her knee. The baby was quite agitated and started crying - he was obviously hungry. She took her breast out of her dress and gave it to the...

I have been aware of stock photo websites for a long time now, but I was wondering what the return was like when selling your photos to websites or even postcard businesses. How much can photos be sold for? Is it worth the bother?...

Eucalyptus The best thing about subscriptions is that it's usually cheaper in the long term. They often offer a free gift when you sign up to, which can only be a good thing! I know that there are a lot of voucher codes and websites online that will even offer discounted...

I am waiting for iphone5 from last few months and i am really looking forward to buy. Do you people have any idea about iphone-5? when its gonna release? Features? Anything

4 responses

Eucalyptus At the moment, the new features are purely speculation. Many believe that the iPhone screen is simply too small now in comparison to various Samsung and HTC models, and that the screen will be bigger in order to compete. Release date is late summer - between...

There is so many things I would like to learn. But there is only so much time, and sometimes I'm just so exhausted that I just waste all my time to "entertainment" until I go to sleep. How do you study useful things and keep it...

Eucalyptus I used to feel like you. I'd get home from a long day at work and be far too tired to exert myself, yet at the same time I wanted more from life. I think the most important thing is deciding that you want to make a change and accept your realisation that you...

Eucalyptus Firstly, there's the stereotype that we all drink tea from china teapots with china cups and use sugar lumps - and that we speak like the Queen. Secondly, there's the stereotype that we all sound like something out of an Oliver musical - typically cockney...

Suicide is a very political issue; a debate that remains to be heard throughout the world. Suicide and euthanasia are subject to both legal and political control. If I live in London, no one could help me die; yet if I live in...

Eucalyptus I couldn't agree with you more about the partygoers Mike. I think a lot of this problem is due to our binge drinking culture and a lack of respect by the people who partake in it.

Eucalyptus On a separate note, I'm sorry to hear of our niece's experience with the NHS. The UK is blessed with a healthcare system that is free at the point of use and in such distressing economic times, meltdown in the Eurozone and a budget deficit to confront, it is...

Eucalyptus Either way, in this country where this girl died you can be struck off and have your licence permanently removed for behaving and treating patients according to personal prejudices. In my eyes he should be sent to prison, not only for what he's done but to set...

Eucalyptus He isn't retiring as such, he's just retiring from the action movie genre. When you take into account his experience, filmography, age and reputation - not to mention the injuries he's had over the years, I think this is a good time to call the action genre a...

Eucalyptus I don't really have a fear as such, although I did live in a flat above a woman who used to keep setting her flat on fire - she was later found dead within a few days of being dead. I have no idea how she died but at the same time I often wonder how she didn't...

Eucalyptus This is a difficult question and the answer is purely dependent on an individual's vision and perception of the abstract notion of justice. By choosing the death penalty, you are depriving the offender of their right to life as punishment for the crime that...
