    2016/17 Football Season

    What the hell is happening to Leicester? Getting a right shellacking! 4-0 and it ain't even half time :eek:

    explaining what it's really like to live with Type 1

    It's a bit like being made to sit through endless repeats of Heartbeat.

    Whatever happened to that passport thing?

    I remember being given this pointless bit of paper that i was supposed to fill in with all my insulin details, i was told if i didn't show this i wouldn't be able to get any insulin. I never filled it in, as it was utterly pointless, and nobody has ever asked me for it or mention it ever since...

    Anybody have premium bonds?

    I wonder what happens with stuff like this and gambling/lottery accounts etc if you die? Now everything is done on the internet, there's no record of anything. These companies won't even discuss account details with anybody other than the account holder.

    Anybody have premium bonds?

    Lol 4?? Well that's not many...but 54 years is a lot of draws! My holder number is over 288 million, that's a lot of holdery peeps. How does that even work?? There aren't 288 million people in the UK! I thought you had to be a UK resident to buy em? Maybe not. I dunno.

    Anybody have premium bonds?

    Martin Lewis obviously doesn't bank with Natwest. Like i said, their saving rate including ISAs is dropping to 0.01%...no, not a misprint not even 0.1% but 0.01%. I've moved £40,000 across to premium bonds because it's easy to do, if i left that in my Natwest savings account in an entire year i...

    Anybody have premium bonds?

    Seeing as interest rates are now hopeless, i've switched my savings across hoping for the big win. I know it's unlikely, but my bank is now going to pay 0.01% interest so waste of time having my money there. For every £1,000, that pays 10p interest a year! You'd need £100,000 savings just to...

    Wow this is so sad

    Why does it take things like terminal illness to make people realise how to treat each other properly? Why can't we all just be like that anyway, instead of playing stupid games with each other and treating each other as disposable commodities? I wonder what all the people that use websites like...

    Wow this is so sad

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-37442522 A young US married couple who bonded through their shared struggles with cystic fibrosis have died within days of each other. Katie Prager, 26, died in Kentucky on Thursday, five days after the death of her husband, Dalton Prager, 25. Katie...

    Unhappy with the diabetic nurse at the GP

    You really need to read up as much as possible about it yourself. If you rely on the NHS you will need lots of luck. If i sound disenchanted with the NHS, it's because i am. Other than that i can't really offer any advice.

    Anyone Type 1's Between 18-30 Here?

    Unfortunately i'm over 40, but i have a young taste in most things (especially music) so if anybody fancies a chat about it feel free to message me. I listen to stuff like Of Mice & Men, My Chemical Romance, Avenged Sevenfold. Currently still a bit obsessed with the most recent Bring Me the...

    Day out and it's raining

    Alanis Morisette wrote a really rather unironic song about this sort of thing. Prepare yourself for major cutlery-related disappointment.

    2016/17 Football Season

    Bramall lol, no H! Or as we call it, slightly tongue in cheek, Beautiful Downtown Bramall Lane. And we still play there, unlike most clubs these days with their shiny new stadiums. Doesn't that got on your wick?? It does me! Soccer Saturday or whatever..."there's a goal at the ding-dong...

    2016/17 Football Season

    Lol sounds familiar. Things can always get worse if you support one of those clubs in a tailspin. Does Higdon still play for you? Seeing him for Sheff Utd i thought you'd made a mistake signing him. Showed next to nothing in about 2 seasons. I'm sure your fans would have thought "wow, this is a...

    Weird dreams

    I have some really weird ones that seem real. Last night in my dream, my laptop blew up. I've spent all day thinking about buying a new one, even though i hardly ever use my laptop (i use my desktop) and there's nothing wrong with it anyway. :banghead:

    2016/17 Football Season

    What happened to Tranmere? Winning every game, now gone pish. Was it a case of not as good as the start suggested and law of averages rectifying it?

    HP printers

    Nowhere near as bad as Kodak. I bought a Kodak Hero many years ago, barely ever used it. Used 2 cartridge packs (1 colour 1 bw in each pack) and barely got 5 pages out of them altogether. 2nd pack i printed off 2 b&w pages before the printer said the ink was low and stopped printing properly...

    What are your music loves?

    Anything loud and screamy. Including the neighbours mentally unstable wife. Not sure that counts as music though. But then, some people say the same about the things i actually choose to listen to.
