Feeling aloneHi Linda, I can understand how it is, not to have affection from your partner. I have spent lockdown living with mine full time and it has spiralled into what I can only describe as a classic abuse situation. I am constantly accused of not listening or forgetting something she claims to have told me. She plays the same gaslighting game with other people too. It grinds you down and I'm glad lockdown has eased enough for me to get back to my own place again. Writing this makes me feel disloyal, but it's got to the survival stage.ViewDate:

Will you opt for the flu jab this year?Public Health Scotland are running the program this year. They have chosen to use the SIRS system and start in reverse order, with vaccinating children before vulnerable groups. Now many areas have run out of vaccine, because they did not take into account the double requirement. GP surgeries cannot help and we is and wait for a letter with an appointment. Their website and helpline do not reply. What can possibly go wrong?ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsMy fourteen year old granddaughter just called me a TERF. Apart from her not even asking my views are on the matter first, are we now facing a major socially divisive movement that requires urgent revisions to the current legislation, that has us committing hate crime, just disagreeing with them.ViewDate:

A QUICK GUIDE TO HELP YOU ON YOUR WAYHi Yodama, I chose "Boson5" because Higgs got taken. I used to teach physics, so CERN fascinates and bewilders me. Anyway, I live in Glasgow now near my family, having emerged from years of humanitarian aid in Doboj and Prishtine; living on a ketch in Andratx and then in Colmenarejo for many years. So I had not lived in an English speaking country for some sixteen years and Scotland twice that. I still have much catching up to do. Well, I have heard of Iron Maiden, which is more than they know on University Challenge... Enough of me!ViewDate:
