| Unfortunately he's now got a column in the Daily Mail. Of course I won't be reading it, but it's sad to think that he's still got a way of churning out propaganda. He's also getting (over)paid for giving lectures. It seems if you've been Prime Minister, your words are automatically worth a fortune.... |

| Can only get better when you've hit rock bottom. If you're not there yet then you've still got stuff to work out. It's a process. You'll be fine. |

| Usually, the more people that turn up, the more comfort that gives to the family knowing how many people cared. Could be a bit awkward though if they feel that him falling into the wrong crowd was a big part of the reason for his ultimate demise. |

| I laughed because you used the word r*tarded and then I laughed again because I know I'm supposed to feel bad about it. I always loved that word as a kid and never minded being called it. I hope it gets reclaimed one day. |

| Not saying this applies to you, but being self obsessed (to the point of self referencing all of the time), not being interested in what other people have to say and generally being uptight must be three of the main reasons for avoiding somebody and these would be three characteristics I'd associate... |

| Very few things on offer these days apart from high end brand products they are desperate to get rid of before they reach their sell by date because nobody is buying them. 18 months ago I was able to regularly stock up on my daughter's favourite biscuits at 50p or 60p a packet, I never see them for ... |

| Good to see so many here have memories from age 2 and 3, it annoys me intensely when people say that recollections before the age of 5 are false memories - just because they can't remember anything before they started school. I'd lived in three different houses by the time I was 4 and have very clea... |

In life generally, people complain about their parents doing their heads in, not having a job, being fed up with their job, friends letting them down, raging at injustices in the world and so on. Scratch the surface though and it's never a surprise to find it... |
