I've asked a lot of questions just lately on different topics and have had such wondering feedback and great support. I know Thank you isn't enough Sometimes but I just want to say…

Policies, Politics etc
I want to find out what is being done to enforce statutory laws surrounding equal opportunities, access and inclusion for people with disabilities. If businesses or organisations aren’t compliant is that not only ableist but a hate crime? Can they be penalised? After all if these places were non-compliant based on the…

Acceptable age for trick-or-treating
Just for a light discussion/debate, wondering what people think? I know people who get intimidated by groups of teenagers of 14/15/16 knocking on their door so they don't "do" halloween at all, no decorations and turn the lights off so it looks like they aren't in. I sort of have a theory that if a child is old enough to…

Covid Inquiry - what's the point
I see no point in the current Covid Inquiry.Nobody is going to be found guilty of anything and it's going to cost over £100 million just to point out the bleeding obvious .......that money would have been much better spent on the NHS.In the UK, more than 228,000 people have since died with Covid-19 listed on their death…

Gastroenterology problem
Hello all, I am talking to you today to see if anyone can recognise themselves through my experiences; as I do not seem to go anywhere with doctors. I have a crisis at the age of 14. I had just left my family in the Caribbeans and moved to France. During the year there, I spent most of my time in hospital with terrible…

Grumpy relatives
I have a couple of extremely grumpy relatives. Ordinarily I would find this quite entertaining - at least, if it were not for their behaviour causing many of the people they come into contact with to end up in tears - but due to my issues they create me a lot of anxiety. I find it helps me to share things like this when…

Remembrance Day / Poppy Day
I thought if it’s OK I would make a thread to cover Remembrance Day / Poppy Day / Remembrance Sunday etc. and have a general discussion around it. Royal British Legion is one of the few charities I support aside from Scope, Air Ambulance, maybe a couple of others. These are charities that I think in all honesty, in a fair…

MAKING FRIENDS
Good Morning I was born with left hemiplegia and throughout my life I have struggled to make friends. I was frequently teased and bullied in school and college. Even though I now have a full time job, I still struggle to make long terms friends due to my disability. Does anyone else struggle with this? If so, how have you…

Is soup a drink?
From the team that brought you the Great Potato Debate comes another important question that plagues us all. I asked this in the Ask Anything game this morning, but it definitely requires some further exploration. What is soup? Are chunks an important factor? If a soup is a smooth liquid meal, does this mean smoothies are…

Why do the clocks go back?
So the clocks go back an hour at 2am on October 29th 2023. But why do we do this? Talk of this goes back to the Romans, who used to take advantage of more daylight and was even joked about by Benjamin Franklin, who wrote about a similar idea in a satirical letter sent to the editor of the Journal of Paris. In the letter,…

Some thing cheap, but filling and tastes so good.
I just wanted to say like most here and in general that run a family or just with a partner, do you find that its boaring to just say what do you want to eat tonight (or in the day) Oh I don't know what do you want? Pie and Chips? No I'm fed up of chips lets have something different? So try this it takes about 1/2 to cook…
