  1. If a woman or man was truly raped, would they continue to sleep with him/her and extol their virtues with parties for the next week? These particular women, who were friends, had a choice.

    Any charges were dropped btw.

    For goodness sake listen to your history teachers and do research for bias in your mainstream UK press.

    Idun is correct in being somewhat sceptical.

    Diane Abbott is right that it is all about the atrocities caused by the US and revealed by wikileaks. Rape, disgusting as it is, in this instance and scenario, is a diversion from the true issues that have wider-reaching and national consequences.

    NB - WBs mate - yes unfortunately money does talk.

  2. Science requires reproducible factors - very rarely available in the kitchen - Your OH should know this.

    Plus the +/- factors.

    Science is the process of discovery. Cooking is about making, not discovering, so it can't be a science.

    eg add nutmeg - how much - a pinch, a gram, a whole nut, crushed, whole? it could go on!

    More of an art as you say !!!

    NB spring cleaning can last a long time - perhaps some people do not bother.
  3. wow - why repeat.

    A standard recipe from the internet and varied by chucking in this and that and:

    https://services.completefrance.com/forums/completefrance-forums/cs/forums/3519756/ShowPost.aspx

    Plus other threads on here - search function on here works well.

    Experiment - OH seems to do well !!!

    NB We started spring cleaning today - 5 full cylinders of dust/dog hair. But people on this forum seem to think such day to day activity is below them in favour of definitive better information.

    Why not start a thread saying what you have done today without turning cooking into a science.
  4. OH at it again.

    So much for the poor people in London/Paris she would like to point out that when she worked in London she tripled her salary for the same job she did out of the SE.

    She also says that "why should people who have pi ssed their money up the wall get away with not paying for their care whilst those who have been sensible get asset stripped?"

    Me now - its a bit of a dilemma. It does encourage spendthrift behaviour but nevertheless we both believe that good parenting is raising your child to earn their own wealth and not to be reliant on hand downs.

  5. My wife has been stalking my computer and says she would put her money on manufacturing in Roumania or another C / E European locale. (She's a recently retired European Head of Tax for a fortune 100 company and her last job was setting up a manufacturing facility in Roumania.)

    She also added there was precious little chance of a manufacturing facility being set up in France. While working for the same company they decided to set up a new European distribution hub and did a mathematical analysis of location to give shortest route to market. The optimum location was Eastern France - which was immediately ruled out. The centre was established in Germany instead.
