This is not a problem at all - in fact its really endearing and sweet but, I am just curious as to why my cat behaves like she does. I had her as a kitten when she was 8 weeks old, she was spayed at...
I have just bought myself a box of beautiful yellow gerbera. But I know they don't last long as a cut flower. Can anyone suggest anything to prolong their display in the vase, please?
I have been thinking for some months about getting a border collie pup. I work from home a lot of the time, so there is no problem with it being unattended. I live in the country, so walks are...
Sorry to overload this section with questions, but I have got the gardening bug after today's gorgeous weather. I have a garage wall facing the back of my house in my small sheltered courtyard garden....
I bought two abulitions last year which were beautiful. They survived the winter against the house wall and I noticed today that they are throwing out new buds off the old growth. Do I cut them back...
Does anyone have any experience of cleaners in the BSE area and can recommend someone or a company, please? I have done an internet search and come up with nothing. TIA

Had a bit of an on/off thing with someone since last summer. Asked a question about him in autumn and advice was generally along the lines of "delete him" so I did. Then just before Christmas we got...
Do you make them? What sort of things? Do you keep them? I tend to make "plans" for what I would like to do/achieve the next year rather than resolutions - I still feel an abject failure though when...
My friend has just called me to say that her neighbour has gone away for a fortnight and she has left her four dogs in their kennels. We have no idea if anyone is going in to feed and walk them (my...
My sister has been seeing this guy and has reported something that has concerned me enough to tell her never to see him again (and thankfully, she has agreed). She said that they would go out, he...
I am going to have my five month old terror neutered when he reaches six months. Some folks have said it will calm him down, others have said it will make him worse! He is an aggressive little...
This is really two questions in one! My ancestor came from the normal "ag lab" background in quite a rural area. Surprisingly though he could write his name (in a reasonably good hand) and by the...
Met a guy in the summer and we had a wonderful time together. Everything seemed to be SO right. Then out of the blue he decides that we did not "gel" and what he felt was not enough. Upset but...
