Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Sorry to hear about your friend, almostnever.
+1 to what Dolorous said- these things are often so unexpected. There's been many a time when a friend has been feeling low/things not going well, but it doesn't mean you expect something like that.
I hope he recovers soon, physically and emotionally.0 -

Me neither! I was in the shop tonight though and at the last minute decided I wanted sweets and they were the first thing to catch my eye! So good

M&S ones probably have yummy chemicals to make them tastier, like bakeries do So homemade things never taste the same unfortunately!
That's probably a good thing! Having a potential 24h supply of cookies would be very bad :O...I don't even like cookies that you buy in cafes or from supermarkets in packets. And the ones today had so much chocolate in them they were a little sickly...I can only ever stomach one.
A friend of mine works for odlums, but before that she had to travel around bakeries regulating/checking the chemicals and everything they added to their food (conducting experiment on cake
). Some ridiculous stories. 0 -

Homemade stuff tastes a million times better IMO, but people get so used to the processed bulk produced stuff that they forget what real food tastes like.0 -

OMG I'm really sorry almostnever. Don't beat yourself up about it though hun. Even if he was a little bit out of sorts, there's no way you could have predicted he'd do something like this. Hope he'll be okay. xx0 -

I know it's no help Almostnever, but it's rare that anyone can tell when someone's in that bad a state so please don't be too hard on yourself. I hope he's ok.0 -

Today was really crap but at least I'm going to Dublin tomorrow Reading Week is always crappy for some reason, I'm always so much happier being in Dublin and doing things. I'm also considerably more productive even though I have far less time. Hopefully I'll feel a bit better by tomorrow evening anyway. 0

Yup, SF Law! Didn't know you were there, glad to hear you're enjoying the time off so far though I really should try to enjoy the time more, especially as the summer exams are the last time I'll do exams which don't count towards my degree, but I'm a nerd like that 
There's no point trying to get too much done anyway, exams are aaaaaages away!

Drinking tea now, might have an Apple Lattice too.0 -

Is Torchwood any good?
Season one and two are silly fluff, entertaining at times, irritating at others but generally fluff. Season 3 is some of the BEST science fiction I have ever seen, if you can try and watch it all in a five hour block or over five nights as it was originally broadcast. It is amazing, really genuinely awesome sci fi. Season four is to me a bit of a waste but that may be because season 3 is just so so awesome.
Also best of luck 0 -
Oh Christ I owe at least a stone of flab to that recipe. I should hate it, but I...just can'tI can personally vouch for this recipe - thanks to Eviledna They come out really similar to the M&S cookies!
On the weight issue mentioned by others, I've come to the realisation that we're often never happy with our weight. At my skinniest I was a 12, and I remember thinking I was fat. Looking back at pictures now it looked really skinny on me, cos I'm quite broad. At my heaviest I felt just as crap about myself as I did as at my skinniest. Conclusion? Try to be healthy and occupy your mind more with other things, because often you're only as fat your self image makes you. Works for me at least! I can always do with loosing weight, but I don't let it consume me anymore because after a serious health scare last year, I realised there are more serious things than a few extra pounds.
@almostnever, I really hope your friend gets through it all ok. Don't blame yourself at all, you can never know what's inside another's mind, no matter how well you know them.0 -
