Prison visiting - spoiler Thursday 26/11
|
| |
Lillian seemed a bit slow on the uptake when visiting Matt, I thought. He's going to have to spell it out to her: 1/ Getting out early depends on staying out of trouble. 2/ Staying out of trouble means not being in a fight, not just not starting one. 3/ Avoiding a fight requires keeping your head down, being normal,... more »

Virgin vs Hotmail again.

My blind friend has mentioned (Christmas pressie discussions) a "heated knife for cutting frozen food", or words to that effect. She thought it was a Betterware product, but it doesn't seem to be, not Kleeneezee. 1. Does anyone have any links? 2. Are they any use? I have a suspicion they may well not be.... more »
