I understand that this will be subjective and vary from woman to woman, however there must be a generally accepted mean.

Is it unusual to still be lactating 6 years after your child has stopped breastfeeding?

How do I get it back? I don't know what happened, on Saturday I could turn my phone to use the QWERTY keyboard but then on Sunday it wouldn't work. My partner had been fiddling (he can't resist) so I can only assume he has somehow switch it off.

How do I switch it back on?

I know this is a generalised question, I hope someone can give me a ball park figure.

Here are some details

The house is less than 80 square metres in volume.

The house is double glazed but the walls have minimum insulation.

There is a combi-boiler in the house feeding both heating and water.

There is one adult and one child in the house.

The heating is set to 22 degrees (we live in Germany - we get real snow here ;-) )

Can you give your answers in kWh if possible so I can compare?

Thank you!

How can parents identify if their child might possibly have this disorder?

I was hit from behind at a reasonably slow speed and the bumper and rear door (it's an estate - station wagon) have been damaged. Until it is assessed we won't know if the chassis has suffered damage.

The other driver has admitted full responsibility and it is his insurance that is dealing with the claim.

My problem is that my car is a very well-maintained but heavily used 11 year old Audi. I'm worried that the valuation versus repair costs will result in it being written off. If that is the case, the write off value would NOT replace it.

I'm self-employed and a single mum. I rely heavily on my car. If it is written off I cannot work, if I don't work I have no way to support my child....

I'm desperately trying to find a way, some single way, of ensuring I get to keep my car and have it repaired.

Can anyone help.

For your information I'm in Germany and the insurers are German.

I'm trying to find out about my maternal grandmother's family. She is dead and has never spoken about her family as she was ashamed (possibly - certainly embarrassed) to admit that she was from fairground stock, most certainly brought up on the road. I'm quite sorry that she felt this way as throughout my childhood it was a glamorous dream of mine to be part of a fairground family.

Her surname was Fletcher, her family being a large and successful fairground family. I can't find any records except her father's marriage to my great-grandmother.

Does anyone know how I find any records of births etc among these itinerant people as they seem to have had scant regard for the official registration process!

If a company in mainland Europe recognises the existence of a safety risk but does nothing to allay that risk, rather they simply put up a sign, is that constituting a lack of duty of care?

For example, a newly varnished floor on which several people have slipped. If the company puts up a sign warning that the floor is slippery, have they fulfilled their duty of care or are they actually acknowledging a risk and therefore further exposing themselves to claims of negligence on their behalf?

Does the European Law supercede the local national law in this matter if they are not the same and the local law is not up to the same standard?

In the Special K '10 varieties' advert (UK edition) the girl changes outfits as she walks through her apartment. At one point she is in a red evening dress.

I would really love to know where this dress came from, or if there is a full-length picture of it somewhere.

Thanks

An ice cube escaping my G&T landed on a piping hot griddle and immediately started to simultaneously melt and sublime.

And it made me wonder, are there any other substances that sublime? I have to admit that I cannot remember that piece of information that I was undoubtedly told at school!

In September 2003, during the sale of my property, the managing agent requested that a sum of just over £1000 be held in escrow by their solicitor against their costs and fees. This was agreed on the condition that the money would only be passed to them when they had presented full and complete accounts to which we agreed.

Since this day, the money is languishing in the solicitor's client account and no accounts have been forthcoming. My solicitor occasionally reminds the otherside that they still have my money and they reply kindly that they are aware but have had no correspondance from their client as to how to proceed.

I want to now push to have the monies and accrued interest returned to me. How can I calculate the interest that should have accrued?

Secondly, how can I force the issue and get my money returned to me?

I'm researching a person who's married name was Tebia Annay Whittlesea.

I cannot find out much about her and as a result I was wondering if the Tebia was a shortened version of her registered name.

Does anyone have any clues?

Thank you.

In the UK, the moment the results are confirmed and announced, the incumbent Prime Minister moves out and the incoming takes over.

What benefits are there to the delay? Is there an historical reason?

I've been using Mozilla Firefox for a few years now on my Mac powerbook. I've recently downloaded the most recent version. During the download, my old version was automatically deleted. The new version is saved to my Applications folder, but if I try to open or access the file it attempts to open and then doesn't. It is driving me mad because all my autmoatic internet options are set up for Mozilla and I'm struggling in Opera at the moment.

Can anyone help me to overcome the Firefox problem and talk me through getting it set up properly? I'm a plug and play sort of person so clear and simple instructions would be great please!

Thanks

I am interested in European transport law as I will be travelling through Germany, Switzerland, Italy and France.

I know there are variations and exceptions to the law and would like as comprehensive an answer as possible.

Many thanks

I'm writing another story and I am looking for as true a response to the following situation as possible:

A young woman, single mother of a toddler (single through the death of her husband some months previously) gets a new work colleague. At first, other than noticing that he is tall and a bit shy, she doesn't really register him. Then one day they are forced to spend time and talk together. During this conversation she finds out more about him. A couple of weeks later it dawns on her that she is beginning to 'fancy' this guy. She's only ever dated one guy (her dead husband) and feels out of practice. She is also feeling guilty about falling for another man so soon after her husband's death. I want to try to decide which is the best and most likely scenario.

Should she:

1. Go all out and flirt with him. Do I make her overt, or shy? What is most likely to work with the guy? I'm assuming here for the storyline it would be best if the end of the story is a successful falling in love.

2. Walk away and suffer major angst but also a feeling of doing the right thing because it's too soon.

3. She discovers he has a girlfriend, but knows that if they are in the same office together, he can't take his eyes off her. Should she follow this up? How? Or should she be one of the sisterhood and live through this minor infatuation and move on to the next moment?

4. Should I introduce a brother-in-law / sister-in-law encouraging her to be faithful to her husband's memory?

I have so many ideas but I'm interested to see where other people would go with this storyline. I'm not interested in writing a Barbara Cartland style romance, I want it to reflect modern thinking.

Thanks guys!

I have been watching the news and seen the pain of that family from Orpington, whose son was killed in a beach accident in the Bahamas some years ago (I forget how many). The case has been dismissed for lack of evidence.

The family is distraught.

Why is a court decision so important to the healing process for bereaved people? Why is the act of naming a culprit, of placing the blame so cathartic?

I don't dispute the fact, this not a scathing query. This is purely a question of the psychology of this situation.

I am a mother of a four year old who shows signs of intelligent comprehension and complete lack of cognitive ability in equal measure.

The latter tends to manifest itself when he is in a foul mood and fighting me, so I err towards the belief that he is intrinsically intelligent.

Sadly, in Germany, they do not believe a child should be taught until they enter school at 6 or 7. Which means my frustrated little monster finds his kindergarten somewhat boring.

I do alphabet and number work with him at home but I don't want to push an unwilling/less academic child and de-motivate him completely. However, I do want to give my son the most interesting and challenging education possible.

How do I assess him?

I know I could use the IQ test but at such a young age this is problematic. Also, as a person with a high IQ I know the pitfalls of having no impetus from teachers to challenge that ability. I want the best chance for my son (who doesn't after all?).

unannounced and spoiled the GF surprise?

In the last couple of weeks I've been getting a sensation occasionally on my upper calf.

It feels somewhat like warm water or warm air flowing over a certain area on my upper calf, then it is gone.

There is no obvious or visible difference to my legs and the area doesn't feel warm to the touch, it is purely a sensation.

I don't really want to have to go to the doctor for nothing (he is too expensive) so if anybody can suggest what it might be first so I can assess if I need to I would be very grateful.

Thanks

I have a large garden. It was once upon a time an orchard & the previous owner took out all the apple trees (such a shame) & replaced them with a variety of badly judged trees (the Oak is 5m from the house, sadly it just has to go!)

We bought the house three years ago, but it was empty for 1 months before I could move in. The house is still being renovated & the garden is suffering.

I tried to mow yesterday only to over heat the mower on all the moss & weeds that have grown through.

As the ground isn't level, & moss and weeds have taken over, I think the best thing I can do for the poor thing is to take up all the turf, treat the ground for all the weeds & then reseed (it's much too large to returf, far too expensive!).

What's the best way to take off the turf?

What's the best way to stack the turf to compost it?

Any general advice on doing what I'm suggesting?

Thanks.
