Leave the lemon peel on a piece of plastic wrap in the sun. A few drops of the lemon oil will come out of the peel. Use these drops of lemon oil on your cobwebbing broom and the spiders will not come back for ages. That will make me feel even better too. -- Edited by neilnruth on Thursday 11th of October 2012 05...

I was able to get into the Dr only if I saw a medical student first and then was reviewed by GP. I agreed to that as I was desperate. The medical studen...

Be careful Grey Nomads. Talking to our son tonight and Whooping cough is till going around. He has had 5 kids off his clas this week with it. One girl was tested - positive - and she didn't even have a cough at the time. Scary stuff. He decided to take a course of antibiotics for it too. 6 kids off today.
