Re: Is it worth buying a Miele Dishwasher???

I would say yes. We have had one for 3 years and so far no problems at all. It is also quieter than our last AEG one although I am not sure if that says much as the AEG one was a very cheap model. Like the above poster I also like the drawer for cutlery.

Red Setter, has anyone been?

Has anyone been to the new Red Setter on Northcote Rd and if so is it overly boujee? Meeting up with some old uni friends next week and wondering if it is worth trying and if it will be suitable? Prefer not to feel older than we usually do  :lol: Would love to hear from anyone who has been.

Husband won't wear helmet on electric bike

Please can someone help me win an argument. My husband has recently got an electric bike and is now refusing to wear a helmet on the basis that he won't be cycling at a high speed and apparently there are studies that show drivers are more careful around cyclists without helmets. It all seems so cou...

Need a lightweight foundation for this heat! Any suggestions very welcome.

Can anyone recommend a very light foundation that won't have me streaking in this heat  :o I don't need something for everyday but I do like to wear something if I go out. So much choice out there, not sure what to trust / choose. I thought that I would ask here. Thanks.

Re: Brother refusing to help with elderly parents

Hi Godhawk, yes I do. A husband and daughter. And a full-time job which is thankfully flexible. I think this is the part that grates, my brother has a wife who doesn't work and who I think could help out by supporting him help my parents if that makes sense.
