A friend of my wife's who is roughly your age Raz will have her gallbladder removed soon. It sucks that it needs to be done but you are hardly alone, if that's any consolation.

The bigger problem is the Pancreatitis.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Good news!

Got my Tesco deliveries for Christmas booked within 40 minutes of the slots opening (unlike the 3 and a 1/4 hours wait of last year.) :)

Bad news!

My Fridge Freezer has stopped working. :(

Couldn't I have just waited 3 and a 1/4 hours on Tesco again this year as my bad luck of the moment. :cry:

Wow.  "Faith" comes up exactly once, in the US, in 5th place.  At first I thought it might have just not been considered a valid response and missed entirey.

Turns out faith is just a rhetorical tool of the American Right.

I don't know - maybe the general positive stuff in life is what gives it meaning? But I do wish the pollster had challenged that a bit for a real answer :blush:
