The only tin openers we have been able to find, have thick plastic handles.

The all metal one we used to have lasted over 40 years before it wore out, these new ones wear out very quickly, one lasted about a month, the handle became loose inside the plastic cover.

Another type has just gone wrong after about a year it won't open cans, it has worn out.

These new ones are also much fatter and harder to store in a drawer.

How long have you used yours

When somebody tells you what somebody else said about you, don't you realize that every person understands the original message differently, yet you still want them to tell you more.

And when you tell someone what someone else said about them, you too are playing Chinese Whispers.

Why do you enjoy playing Chinese Whispers, don't you know it is painful?

Someone I know tells her friends that her name is something it is not.

Could she be your friend?

Is it anyones fault that their parents weren't married?

Your friend won it at a fantastic price on ebay.

Your friend makes two copies, and offers you equal ownership of the original if you pay half the cost of the CD, plus the cost of one copy. You have a copy each, your friend lets you keep the original for the time being. Whoever keeps the original mustn't lend it, or put in at risk in other ways, and neither person could sell their ownership to a third party without the approval of you both.

If another one becomes available, the original goes to whoever is prepared to pay the most for this other original.

If a 2nd original same CD is won, you share the cost, and have one original, and one copy each.

If you don't think this is fair, give an alternative fair solution.

I was laughing out loud as I walked towards a shop, with clip-on headphones on, Sunday 30th December in UK.

What do you think I was laughing at?

The most specific correct answer gets best answer.

And if you believe it, what makes you believe it?

In my opinion, the lost of the interactive text service by fabmobile, the inability to put the channels where we want them, Ntl had copied the Telewest order which was better than NTL's old channel order, but I put them alphabetically within their sub groups, and get rid of all the channels I don't have.

There are some improvements, but what harm has the name change done for you?

When a childs fairy doll's legs fell off earlier in the year, I was awaiting Christmas Crackers for the tiny elastic bands which used to secure the hats, but no crackers I've pulled have hats in elastic.

I will have to repair the dolls legs with something else.

HAVE A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS.

I am not asking what you recycle, but what goes in the rubbish bin more than anything else.

For me it is the different types of plastic that the council can't recycle.

Examples:

Calgon gives a total weight of 600grams.

gives a dosage in volume of 32-96 millilitres.

Making it difficult to work out how many uses a box contains.

Fairy non bio: Total weight 2.85kg

Dosage 115-270ml

For at least 7 years we have been advised to turn our heating down by 1 degree, if anyone followed this advise, and started at 21 degrees, they must be saving a fortune now, because I don't need any heating to get the room at 14 degrees at this time in December.

I don't need a kidney, and wouldn't ask on Yahoo Answers if I did.

Seeing another question about saving someones life, inspired me to ask this one.

We never put socks into the attic, but everytime we open the attic thousands of socks are in there, hundreds fall down as soon as we open the attic door, they are all sizes, from baby socks, childrens socks, mens socks, ladies socks, but never a pair amoung them, thousands of odd socks every time we open the attic.

Where are they coming from?

A devise usually called the battery wizard, but have also seen it advertised as a Battery charger claims to recharge ordinary and alkaline batteries as well as rechargable batteries. In fact it doesn't recharge ordinary batteries, it just 'refreshes them, which means you need to take them out of the torch, caller display, radio, toys or whatever they are used for often to extend their life.

I bought One from Look Again, I had lots of used alkaline batteries to try out on it, waiting to be brought to the recycling centre, it would only attempt to recharge 2 of about 50 batteries, it even refused to recharge a rechargable battery.

It only charges up to 1.2 volts, which is too low for many things, recharagables maintain the voltage for most of the charge, alkalines do not.

The instructions which come with it do not make the claims in the adverts.

Has anyone bought this and found it successful?

On 'Who dares wins' tonight one of the questions was 'Which countrys have the highest population? and one of the possible answers was UK.

I was under the impression that the UK consists of Countrys England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Me and my Teddy Bear

Got no troubles, got no care,

Me and my Teddy Bear,

We can pray all day.

I saw the ending of Eastenders today when Ian put a time lapse video in a domestic video player, and it played in real time.

How was this possible?

Did something happen earlier which enabled it to work, I heard him say it was 8 hours long.

Walking home today, I saw this youth staring at me, as I looked back at him, he said "Don't look at me." I faced him again and asked him, how he knew I was looking at him.

He then got angry, telling me again not to look at him.

Surely his behaviour gives me the reason I need to look at him?
