The Locker Room

Anyone here wear contacts? I started wearing them about a month ago now. Think they are a brilliant invention! Prior to that i'd only wear glasses when I really needed to which would be at night. Decided to make the jump to them because of the job really. Question is this for those who have been wearing them for a long while, do you get days where you find it difficult to put the contacts in? Eyes a bit sore or dry feeling? I've been getting that recently and was wondering what the best way is to prevent it.

Went for a day. A fascinating place, especially if you know a few of the stories from the TV series. Thoroughly recommended as a super day out.

I just got Sky+HD its smashing. and seeing as im on nights over the weekend I can now record the Rugby without having to set the dvd recorder and find a spare disc.

A custody hearing on a 12 year old boy was being heard in a West Country Court. The Judge suggested that the boy live with his Aunt, but the boy complained bitterly that his Aunt beat him more than his mother and father did. Right said the judge, I will grant custody to your Grandparents, but the boy complained that they beat him more than his Aunt did. The Judge thought for a few moments and decided to grant custody to the England Cricket Team, as they were not capable of beating anyone.

Without going into specifics, for the obvious reasons, anyone tell me how long whiplash takes to resolve itself. I've just seen my physio (hence the grumpy posts ) and it's so bad she's seeing me again on Friday. It hurts!!

British scientists have traditionally been the ones wearing Oxfam clothing. This is just going to drive our best brains abroad where they can command a better wage to pay for the millstone debt round their necks.
