Re: Challenging Stepdaughter - Advice Pls

I think we share a step daughter . My partner is a widower. It’s really really tough . She has done everything she can to break us up over 11 years . She also has a form of autism : food too spicy , food too many textures, colours too bright . Her idiosyncrasies are far too numerous to mention here ...

Re: Criminal friend getting divorced

Sorry I’m a little confused . I divorced an embezzler . I was never turned down by any legal firm . They employed forensic accountants to track down money and shell companies . It’s expensive but it can be done . Go to Lois Langton at Howard Kennedy .

Re: How do you keep your children grounded?

I think the best way is by just being a parent and saying the word No . I grew up in a very wealthy community : boarding schools, summer homes , holidays in exotic locations - my parents made sure I knew the value of money : I had a job when I was 16 during the summers , I had chores from the age of...

Re: Anyone else noticed Waitrose becoming a not very nice place to shop?

We go to Chadwick’s often and it’s wonderful . Never had fatty steaks or poor quality meat . I do know there was a small vendetta against them because they were against cycle lanes so can’t help think that the above may have more to that . Most my friends and neighbors shop there and never ever have...

Re: Anyone else noticed Waitrose becoming a not very nice place to shop?

I wouldn’t say recently . It’s been poor for five years - always out of stock of things I need . The only reason I shopped there was it was easy to park for Chadwick’s and Sainsburys as I ended up going to the later to pick up the things we couldn’t find . Now the car park is a mess . I have written...

Anytime you lose weight you are at risk of losing muscle mass . That is why it is best to lose a little weight over a long period of time .

Re: Black Sheep Coffee Balham - closed down

Wonderful ? Not sure that most people would refer to her as wonderful . Isn’t she the councilor who shames shops and tells residents to boycott stores who don’t support her cycling policy and opposed LTN’s ? If she was a wonderful councilor she would actually do something about the mess rather than ...

Re: Cleaner impasse

I think the response is a good one . Only the person asking the question can decide which result she can live with and the four results are exactly what she needs to think about . I think perhaps the role of ass belongs to you .
