Ladies of a certain age: Try reading "Passage to Power" by Leslie Kenton. Taken in one dose, it is a bit worthy and "new-agey", but there is, for example, a useful chapter on sleeping difficulties.

They're known in our house as power surges and boy - do I have some! Despite the severe weather this evening, the central heating has been turned off and I've spent at leasyt an hour sat outside with a book and a torch. Good job we live in the middle of nowhere or I'd have been sectioned by now. :shock:

Urgh, I can just see it, Nora Batty stockings, a hair net and curlers, in fact a sort of "Les Dawson in drag" image keeps springing to mind and I've not even had my breakfast yet :?

Do you ever wish you could rewind your brain and erase images forever? :shock: :shock:

You came up with the goods again Alan, Which one is OH?? :lol:

I keep a little fan round here for when my friend is visiting and she always sits by the window (or we go outside). She calls them 'Melting moments', but her husband calls them 'GET OFF moments'.
(The covers come off, don't even touch me! Windows flung open in the middle of the night, etc...)

I think OH's intrigue has been answered by everyones descriptions :)
I have it all still to come :(

Thanks Alan for that picture I had a good chuckle, the one on the right of the picture must be OH as he is always so cheerful.
