    We were in Oz last year which was loads of salads, prawns and a huge snapper cooked on the bbq so this year we’re going traditional with an organic free range turkey from the local butcher and probably a ham too. Something light and seafoody for a starter and nigellas white choc raspberry cheesecake for dessert which involves several killos of dairy!

    Lol played Cod for years but keen to learn the intricacies of operations just find it hard to pick up what’s what. Hadn’t realised until yesterday that you could be brought back to live by a medic if you don’t reswpawn. Think I need some instructions with this game!

    Just getting into mutiplayer having completed campaign. Not played any Battlefield before so am mostly dying at the mo. Seem to do best with the sniper as a scout rather than with either of the machine guns just can’t seem to kill before being killed ever if I start shooting 1st. Any tips on tactics. hel27 on xbox if anyone wants to play with a level 3…

    Had a really nice loft conversion with en suite loo and sink, dormer on back and 3 velux on front for 20k about 7 years ago. Stairs took up part of downstairs bedroom but well worth it.

    Did anyone see Ben Fogle using a chain saw in his new lives in the wild program the other day? I was wincing. His only protection was a pair of safety specs and he was wearing shorts. Cutting a tree near face height and the saw was jamming in the cut and he looked quite uncomfortable. Thankfully the other guy took over.

    Thanks! Was looking to buy a dremel soon so have ordered it. So can you now tell me all the cool things you can do with this. I just wanted something for sharpening blades so have no clue what else you can use this gadget for.

    Loved it! Wish it was a Netflix series and that was just part one. The time flew by in the cinema which often doesn’t happen for me.

    I dread it the day before and the longer the break the more the dread but then once I’m back actually it’s fine and I usually enjoy being back after a rest. Just build it up in my mind.

    Another aspect that I’ve just remembered is that in order to be ready for the physical challenge that we would undergo in a year’s time we did regular fitness training including doing the police fitness test at our local police head quarters which I failed and at the end we went to our local fire station and did their fitness test. World challenge also organised a long weekend on dartmoor hiking, navigating, first aid and camping in the most abysmal weather I’ve ever camped in and this is part of the total cost. So there was a lot more to it than a 4 week trip. It was our way of life and our goal to work towards for a year beforehand. I do understand it was a privilege not everyone could afford but that exists in all aspects of life and like others have said if some can’t afford it that is a lesson to do well at school and earn so you can afford it later in life.

    There is a lot of cynical and bitter sounding off on this thread. God forbid a company made money running these trips! We happily shell out on expensive stuff for ourselves and kids which companies sell and make money from giving employment to people.

    At least these companies are also providing life long memories and some experience of other cultures and giving something back that is really worthwhile. So if you’re wondering whether to encourage your child to do something like this and don’t want to ‘diy’ it to save money here’s my experience.

    At the age of 17 in the 90’s I went to Peru for 4 weeks with world challenge. I think the cost was somewhere between 1000-1500 and we fund raised about half. My parents who were fairly well off paid the rest for me to have an experience that I vividly member now. It was in no way a cushy holiday. It was a serious culture shock and very challenging experience, trying to source food and accommodation in a language we didn’t know well (we did Spanish lessons once a week for a year beforehand) each child had to take turns being leader for a day and I absolutely dreaded my turn as a very shy child. We had physical challenges of hiking remote mountains and carrying all our stuff, sleeping under the stars, cultural experiences in the cities and towns, we stayed with a lovely family in the Amazon jungle, hiked the inca trail to machu picchu and built a play ground for a remote village School. We experienced physical hardship, sickness and a month away from everything and everybody we take for granted (no mobiles or Internet back then though) I cherish that experience but had never been so happy to see my mum and English bread in my life since. I know that it’s possible to experience these sorts of things perhaps in a gap year but as a very shy, anxious female I know I wouldn’t have done these things on my own and never will again.

    To address the free holiday for teachers aspect:I went to a very big, well performing secondary and none of our teachers were able to or wanted to come so we had a teacher from a nearby primary come instead and our world challenge leader was an absolutely brilliant guy who I’ll never forget.

    Looking to upgrade from 360 to xbox one as a Christmas present to self. Haven’t bothered with the online gaming side for years as got bored of being wiped out within 2 seconds of reswpawning in cod so have just played games like gta v and skyrim offline but is it worth buying these games nowadays without the online element?

    I’m 35 and exactly the same. Manual job for the last 15 years takes it’s toll. No pill is going to help I’m afraid.you need to get into yoga!The mattress idea is a good one too. I switched to memory foam and that really helped.

    We’re both on here which was only slightly annoying when I wanted to post a ‘what present for our 5th anniversary’ earlier this week but had to actually use my imagination instead.
