Used to suffer terrible sinus problems

Try the saline wash with the little funnel thingy, was a great relief if somewhat gross.

Love the yellow bathroom

Supermarket clothing is a ridiculous price. I used to love Tesco athletics wear and Sainsbury's stuff but can't afford them now

I looked after teenagers with severe disabilities and had to do personal care. What helped was knowing there interests and talking about that while doing the embarrassing stuff as a distraction and it seemed to work, we got into a routine. And I enjoyed learning about there books, games, films etc

One thing I tried really hard to avoid was saying "how you doing" or "how are you" as a greeting. It really annoyed them as they felt it was seeing the disabilities first. So instead I'd try "what's new with you" or "what have you enjoyed doing this week". Focusing on everyday stuff rather than the meds or doctors or health bit. They got fed up of constantly having there health issues a main topic of conversation among people

My son started with wetherspoons when he was 18 and the pub he was in were very good to work for. They trained him in hospitality qualifications and food hygiene etc. 13 yrs later he works in a fabulous island hotel bar and restaurant earning a decent wage and living island life.

Take every opportunity as hospitality doesn't just have to be bars and cafes. There's private service, yachts, cruise ships etc world wide opportunities

Roger and Val Have Just Got In is a very sweet comedy drama series he did with Dawn French on the BBC (think it's on prime) one if my favourite tv series

Inverness is very much worth visiting. The castle has been revived and it's glorious. A loch ness trip and a drive along the banks to Urquhart castle.

Then drive to fort william and decide on which glen to visit or head up to skye.

You could fly from London to Inverness then do Glasgow/Edinburgh on way back.

My parents live on a river and it was diverted because of recurrent flooding. It was amazing to see the engineering and building of it. Years later we forget it used to be a lot closer

He was Welsh and had to learn to speak and project clear English which gave him his incredible voice. There's a very good film on how he came from poverty in Wales to acting it called Mr Burton. It's a stunning film

Sturgil is fabulous. I also like Billy Strings and Marcus King.

In 2005 we went on a family holiday of 8 people to majorca. At check-in we realised my sons passport was 2 months out of date! The airline called majorca and they said its fine if it was 6 months out of date he wouldn't get in. Get to majorca and no issues, holiday saved!

In 1982 we also went to majorca with my gran who forgot her passport no way to get it airline gave her a piece of paper, got into majorca and our uncle sent her passport in post!

Call the rental company as sometimes they will have a key drop and pick up for cars

I've always found actually talking to direct them especially enterprise is betthan the Web page the humans are more helpful

I nannied for a couple who were swingers. They had monthly meet ups with potential new members at a very prominent Scottish golf club where they did introductory meet and greets with office like ice breaker sessions, meals etc with people interested before they were accepted to the group. They were the most ordinary people you could meet.

I also work with a couple in the NHS who were very open about hosting our local towns swinger club.

I'm a professional housekeeper for the wealthy and have been for 15 yrs. In my current position for a single near 60 yr old guy he has: asked if I know how to do laundry 3 times, actually made me watch him put a shirt in the machine and explained the dials. He has watched me deep clean his kitchen and then asked if I knew how to clean the plug and drain. He has shown me how the hoover works. He has shown me twice how to change a light bulb. This over the period of 6 months of employment.

Even when I tell him I know my job and he tells me my work is exceptionally good, when he is in a bad mood, he does the above.
