Loss of ITV/Channel 4 freeview channels

Crumpled silk

I have a long, full, silk evening gown which, through necessity, will probably have to remain folded up in its bag until maybe only an hour or two before I wear it. I know the bottom of it is going to...

Emmerdale's Adele Silva

Has anyone noticed how skinny Adele has become lately? There was a brief full-length shot of her last week, and her legs looked like twigs. Tonight there was a brief side view of her in a skimpy top...

Using Word

When using Word, I often use the 'home' key to take me to the beginning of a line. However, these last few days it hasn't worked. Have I somehow disabled it? Does anyone have any idea how I can get it...

Christmas cards

Some people at work have jumped on the bandwagon of not giving Christmas cards but instead giving money direct to charity. Isn't this just an excuse not to have to sit and write cards? After all, they...
