A Star Is Born....9/10. Really enjoyed this film. It was much better than what I expected. Bradley Cooper's great, but it's Lady Gaga who steals the show. I'd have given it a 10/10, but the script writing didn't seem as strong about two thirds of the way through. The vocals performances from both actors are terrific.

The trailer has the only good bits in it. I was sucked in by the trailer!

Trust me, it is terrible! We thought it'd be brill as the reviewers are raving about it. I think they have well & truly had our pants down with this one!

Hereditary....1/10. One of the worst films I've ever seen! Don't believe all the hype. It's slow, boring and definitely not scary. We went expecting to pee our pants with fear but ended up laughing through most of it because it was just so daft. We waited all the way to the end for the "really disturbing" bits but there wasn't any. Cack!

Well, that's a relief! But the Star have got some of the story wrong. She was taken out on Saturday morning, so she must of been in over Friday night. And she must of been well awake before 9.30am because the restaurant alarm was going off from at least 8.30am & all of Broomhill could hear it! Still, surely you'd think the staff would check if anyone was left in the premises before locking up & leaving? What if there'd had been a fire?

Probably wouldn't get an honest answer.

It isn't a made up story. We saw it all happen. I can't tell you what happened to the girl after she was let out. They got her out after ripping off the shutter and breaking the door open & then the police were talking to her, but I don't know what happened to her after that.

I thought she looked around 20 ish. Long blonde hair dressed in black trousers and a white shirt. I thought maybe a member of staff? But surely if she was staff she would of phoned someone to let them know she was locked in? I thought maybe a customer who'd had too much bevy & passed out somewhere?? But then again why not use the phone to alert someone she was in there? Why would the police use forced entry? It just seemed very odd & quite worrying.

Yesterday morning the alarm was going off at Balti King Broomhhill. The police arrived and the fire brigade. They used force to get the back shutter off and break open the back door. There was a girl found locked inside the restaurant. So I am curious as to why a person could be locked in all night?

I have a box of this (82 tablets left in box) if anyone can use it. My old puss had it as a supplement in his food when his arthritis was mild. He now needs a stronger medication as the arthritis is severe in all four corners NB Product is now spoken for.

I popped in to give Cawa a try today. It was one of the worst coffees I'd ever had (even worse than Macdonald's). It tasted like burnt ash. When I asked for a vanilla latte I was told "we don't use chemicals here". It was £2.80 for a medium drink which was actually more like a small in size. The drink was also dangerously scalding hot. I wont be going back. Onto another Broomhill coffee shop ....what's happened to Nam Song? It's had a new shop sign put up that now says "Five Rivers Coffee". Anyone know anything about it?

My favourite ever choccie bars are these http://www.demetsturtles.com/products/original/ DeMets Turtle bars mmmmm....... I can't get enough of them if I'm in the States. They're tricky to find over here. You can get them here at American Candy outlets, but they never seem to taste as good.

Well....I've been doing some outdoor fundraising recently & the beggars who are in the same area as me seem to do very well for themselves. They actually take each other on to sit in the best spot. In about an hour they usually have enough cash to go & buy alcohol. They also have regular donations of coffee and food. One even put some of HIS collection into my bucket! And then he offered to share a donation of a subway that he'd been given with me! But on a not so positive note...I also overheard two other regular beggars discussing what they were going to steal from the local shops when they'd finished

Why don't you ask these organizations why you're being told no. It could be something in your details they are wary of but feel uncomfortable confronting you about. I would want to know if it was me. It could be a number of reasons. Where you live, the home environment, if the existing cat is up to date with vaccs etc. At least if you knew why they are knocking you back you would have a chance to put them right.

I have gum disease. Good dental hygiene is essential. Soft brushes (they don't erode the gums), flossing & use of interdental brushes to get the minute pieces of food out from between your teeth & Listerine Gum treatment mouthwash seem to keep it under control. My Dentist also advises salt water mouthwashes every day. This works well, particularly at times when my gums are bad. On a not so positive note, bad gums are also an inherited problem & it is the number one cause of tooth loss. Unfortunately, despite all my efforts, my teeth have started to "move" and several are now loose
