(Preview)
Any wonder that as a country we are struggling to keep our infrastructure up with the demand placed on it from population growth. I am not sure if this includes the net gain regarding births and deaths. I could go on and on regarding why we have issues with vehicles, roads, housing, jobs etc etc, but I t...

I was thinking of using my gigabit internet connection at home, and satellite feed on the road. But like most things Fo...

Dental problems
(Preview)
I recently lost an 'inlay' crown and a dentist advised me to get some oral putty and stick it back in until I could see a dentist. Didnt find the putty but did find a 'filling repair kit' so filled the large hole. When I did get to the dentist she was very happy as there was no damage to the tooth - and she glued t...
