Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Glad to say I have my own teeth but my friend changed hers a couple of years ago hers were also over 50 years old. The reason they say to change them is something to do with reseeding gums isn't it? I know my friend has her bottom set lined but there is only so many times they can do that. My proble...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
Mam used to have a dripping tin. All it was was a roasting tin which was used for the roast potatoes and all variety of meat that were cooked in another roasting tin was emptied into it. Never used any fowl fat in it though these were all thrown. Eileen
