It depends on how you 'view' the bed. Standing at the foot and looking towards the headboard, I sleep on the left but when lying in bed I'm on the right - best of both worlds ;)

We have 5 large seed feeders, 1 for niger seeds, 1 suet, 5 fat ball and 2 nut feeders, so this prize would be a big help if we won.

Morrisons have such a huge choice, so £50 would be very welcome!

This would be a wonderful experience - fingers crossed!

I have one pair of VanDal shoes but keep them for best, so would love another pair for everyday comfort. Fingers crossed!

My husband destroys pillows, so I hope they are indestructible too!

Oh, how I wish!!!

I voted for Brexit before and I will vote the same again. This Government is the worst we have ever had, although I do think Theresa May has tried to please everyone and been stabbed in the back for it. They want her out but who would replace her? No deal should never have been taken off the table and Nigel Farage says it will be brought back if the Brexit Party win! I certainly hope they do.

If I won it would replace my old Kindle that I found out wasn't waterproof!! And the addition of Bluetooth headphones is a real bonus.

How can anyone resist such a tempting offer - sounds wonderful. Fingers crossed!

This looks like an ideal holiday.....if only!

Dubrovnik looks a lovely place and I have heard really good comments about it. To win the holiday would be brilliant.

This would be ideal for doing my stairs, the car, taking with us in the caravan and a host of other things. Great prize! Fingers crossed.

Having been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes recently I am using my diet and exercise to control it. This would be a great help in improving my exercise level - always trying to improve on the previous day's walk. Brilliant prize thanks to Damart.

It's not sexist, it's human nature - we're only lOOking after all.

Yes Jorid, his face is rather fine. The thing about him, for me, is the expressions in those dark, brooding, expressive eyes! Now that is something to swoon over, especially when you daydream they are looking at you. Chest isn't bad either.

We have walked along canal sides for years. They are easy walking as they are flat, apart from where the locks are but if there is only 1 the rise is easily negotiated. We also walk round reservoirs, which are also flattish and easy walking. Both are peaceful and relaxing and you can hear the birds singing, water lapping and, unless the canal runs by a road, there is no traffic noise, but both can be muddy so be careful. Try a leisurely walk on a sunny day and take a picnic with you, there is always somewhere to sit and enjoy the view while you eat. If you log into your water providers website there is usually an area that specifies which reservoirs can be walked round and how to get to them and where to park. Enjoy.

What a super prize. Having recently taken up photography, I would love to win this prize, it would be a real bonus.

My other half has had two strokes and neither presented with the symptoms stated above. The first he knew nothing about until he went for a scan to confirm the second one he had. The symptoms he had were sickness, dizziness - (every time he sat up straight he started blacking out but he described it as dizziness, until I asked him to describe what it felt like) and not being able to keep anything down - even water. I rang NHS helpline and was told someone would ring me back within 7 hours (it was Christmas Eve) and eventually I received a call at 7am on Christmas Day. They sent an ambulance immediately and after checking him out in hospital he was told he had an ear infection! As it was Christmas I could not contact our own Doctor but as soon as it was possible I called at the surgery and gave the Doctor a copy of all the events that had happened since he started being ill. She came to see him after surgery and after examining him, said she thought he had had a small stroke at the back of his head. He was still being sick and had been given tablets by the hospital to stop it but as he had to take them with water, he brought them back up. Our Doctor gave him some to dissolve under his tongue - which did the trick, although he didn't eat anything for 11 days. He went for a scan 3 days later and it was when we saw the consultant for the results that he found out it was the second stroke he had suffered. I think it is important that people realize that there are more signs of a stroke than those mentioned. I had no idea he was having a stroke and even the hospital mis-diagnosed it, so beware.

These girls don't just stand in front of the cars holding a number, they have other, more important things to do. They learn about the cars and the drivers and answer questions asked by the public, who are interesting in learning more and don't have the opportunity to ask the drivers or mechanics. They are intelligent, well informed girls who have worked hard to achieve a goal and should be admired for it. Jacob Rees-Mogg states that he believes in a free society where people should be free to do as they want - yet these girls are doing what they want but he condemns them - just because they don't comply with his beliefs! And who says they aren't being treat with respect? Try talking to them and you will find it is their choice and they are well treat and respected.

Had a big birthday yesterday (8th) but didn't do anything special, so if I was lucky enough to win I could have a belated celebration.

No doubt it would be a very interesting read.

I go along with Kurna - if I should be the lucky one, please donate the jacket to a serviceman

This would be the holly on top of the Christmas pud!

If I were lucky enough to win I would need to renew my passport - but it would be worth it. Lovely prize!

I would love to take my Grandson, he would love it - but I might be scared!

With this I could go for rides with my Grandson - he'd like that

I think of people like Stephen Hawking - in a wheelchair but his mind is still as sharp as it was when he was a student. The heroic men and women who have been disabled when they put their lives on the line to keep us safe yet their determination and strong will have enabled them to overcome some of the most horrific injuries imaginable. Strong mental health has been their saviour over injuries that would have been their end, I admire them so much.

I can but dream!! But I'll keep my fingers crossed ;)

I watched a news item a few months ago when this subject was first brought up, which said that solar panels and wind turbines would produce a lot of the electricity needed. It would be fed into the grid (as it is now) and this would help with recharging vehicles etc. There is a huge amount of work required to install charging points at homes, parking places and various places in streets. Also, if wagons have to become electric, will they take longer to deliver goods as they will not be able to do the mileage they do now before having to recharge. If it takes longer to deliver the productivity of the driver/wagon drops and prices go up.

I too have had a donor card since the 70's. As far as I am concerned they can have whatever they want that is still of any use. I have also thought about donating my body to science - not that it is anything special or that I have any illnesses that could be researched, but there is lots of other research they could use it for. My family all know my wishes and should I decide to donate it to science - after they have taken the bits they need - I may be able to help towards curing other illnesses and diseases as well. As for the opt out rather than opt in scheme, I am all for it.

I've just read this to my partner, who's the same problem as you And he agreed completely - especially with the stew!

Thank you Yodama I'm pleased you enjoyed it. I actually wrote it in the early 90's for a friend who was 50, obviously with a slightly different ending of - So set your pace, take your time, you know you're not as nifty, It's all a part of being the grand old age of fifty! Later I sent it to another friend who was sixty, with the same ending but as it was my brother-in-laws eightieth on August 1st I had to think of something that rhymed with eighty and what you see is the result. I'll have to work on a seventy and a ninety I think as many of my friends and relatives are approaching these ages.

I was a little girl when I first visited Chatsworth House - a long time ago - and can still remember my visit. I would be lovely to go again. Fingers crossed.

My feet are already twitching at the level of comfort they will enjoy if I am lucky!!

Sounds as though it is a very good, interesting read. Would love to win a copy.

Just the help I need to keep my legs going!

Sounds idyllic. Worth renewing my passport for.

I wish!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone,

We have a small gold one indoors but there is a 30 foot tall one in the garden - too tall to decorate now.
