  1. If you know any families with adopted children - please pass this on. Extra money is available to their schools to provide support for them but they have to inform school by 16 January! "@Coram: Pupil Premium school support allowance available for children who were #adopted on or after 30 December 2005: http://t.co/935InC06h6"
  2. That's what I want it for - most families have more than one fridge/freezer these days and to have a washer/dryer out of the kitchen would be great.
  3. Thanks for the reassurance. Hubby is not really into DIY unfortunately So a builder it must be
  4. Thanks did you put your door in Or was it already there?
  5. Hi, has anyone added a courtesy door from their house into the garage? any advice or idea of costs for doing this?
  6. Ultimately, it’s a personal decision, but the majority of parents do decide to have it done. Between 1997 and 2000, 61 percent of all newborn males in the U.S. were circumcised. Numerous studies have shown that circumcision can reduce the risk of urinary tract infections in male infants, and in later life can decrease the risk of penile cancer, penile inflammation and transmission of some STDs. One study of 58,000 infants showed that the rate of hospitalization for bladder infections among circumcised males was 1.9 versus 7.0 for uncircumcised males. Another recent study out of South Africa involving 3,000 men demonstrated that circumcision of adult men (ouch!) resulted in a decreased risk of infection with HIV after the men had intercourse with infected women. Other studies have looked at HIV risk in men who were circumcised as infants, and a review of 30 such studies found that uncircumcised men were 1.5 to 8.5 times more likely to contract HIV than those who had been circumcised. Because I’m a gynecologist, I am also inclined to consider the effect of circumcision on the future health of women. Female partners of circumcised men have been shown to have a decreased incidence of cervical cancer. This may be due to reduction in risk of persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) among circumcised men. Having said all this, I also want to mention the possible side effects of circumcision. The chief one is pain, followed by bleeding and infection. Some vocal anti-circumcision groups are highly incensed by the fact that a little baby cannot consent to the procedure. However, most children don’t consent to any of their healthcare; instead, they “rely” on their parents. The official word of the American College of Pediatrics is that “existing scientific evidence demonstrates potential medical benefits to newborn circumcision, but the data are not sufficient to recommend routine neonatal circumcision.” http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/11006275/ns/today-today_health/t/should-i-have-my-baby-boy-circumcised/#.T-Mi3xf2bTo
  7. Unfortunately, it's a very very common problem - the number of times we've asked people to take their dog away from our's and they stand there saying "come on now, come on now" - why don't they just TAKE the dog away as it's obviously not going to listen! We had it at Rother Valley one day - 2 men walking behind us and their dog kept bugging our's. We put our's on the lead (he is not at all aggressive) and tried to go in-between our dog and their's but the dog kept moving round. We said to the guys, please remove your dog - if he keeps annoying him, he may tell him off. I was almost in tears. In the end the GRANDDAUGHTER who looked about 10 realised I was getting upset and took the dog away. It happens over and over and over again Even if a dog is "friendly" it shouldn't be allowed off lead near other dogs if it is going to keep annoying other dogs, who don't ALL want to play
