I HATE IT

A pointless but utterly destructive decoration. Why do our human festivities have to result in fatalities in other biota?

So much plastic crap, so much junk food, so effing childish. Bring back carving swedes and penny for the guys for a maximum of one week at the very end of October to the 5th November max.

Nulliparous women have significantly fewer prolapse and hence continence issues as they age.

It's no mystery why fewer women fancy pregnancy and childbirth.

It remains an absolute scandal how under treated and dismissed pelvic issues arising from the hormone changes of pregnancy and birth are. If men had to etc etc

I thought my insides were falling out: The condition affecting one in 12 mums

Pelvic organ prolapse affects around one in 12 mothers, but many people have never even heard of it.

The UK is Europe’s cloudiest place. Marseille is the northernmost blue sky capital of the continent. The Mediterranean offers plenty of blue skies of course.

Constant traffic noise. And who needs all those dining rooms/tables?! Or indeed sitting areas. I'll take mine in cash please 😂

The most well paid jobs I had were the least useful to society and the most important work I've ever done was completely unpaid.

The idea that people’s “contribution” is defined by how much they earn rather than the work they actually do, or how hard and unpleasant that work might be, is rather abhorrent.

Mine was recounting how a rat bit him when he picked it up thinking it was the ferret/pole cat they were using for ratting. He had a fag in his mouth which he used on its nose to make it let go.
