Re: Vitamin D Deficiency?I think a lot depends on the accuracy of the NHS range. "HIGH" might not really be high when you realise that the recommended daily dose of 400iu was set in the 1920s to prevent rickets. Maybe that was acceptable then but it isn't now. I've been taking a high dose vitD3 supplement for over...
Re: Vitamin D Deficiency?I've been out all week, although that easterly wind has been really cold at times. A big woolly jumper has helped. and the sun was worth it
Re: Frugal for what? (feb / life ) I've become very wasteful and I need to get back to doing all this. TY!
Re: Frugal for what? (feb / life )I think sensible is a good word for it. I think younger folk want everything now and use credit to get it. I have a granddaughter who bought a new build house, an expensive car, planned a big wedding with her partner, fell out before the wedding but decided to go through with it anyway because "...
Re: Ilona clocking inWill do - thanks pet xx
Re: Ilona clocking inIlona, I'm interested in your utility company with no standing charge.. we don't have gas here, use coal for heating and cook by Calor. So my elect bill is very low, currently around £5 a week. You could PM me if you don't want to post it in here and cause a stampede
Re: Off the Grid living - Any thoughts?I read that a week or so ago and didn't like the look of the place at all. It was far too messy and hippy for me - and I'd hate to think what it's like in a howling gale and sleety rain.. misery! I live rural in Scotland at 1000ft and we have bad winters with powercuts, so we're geared up for living...
Re: Car seat cushions for bad hips etc ?The good news Richard is that I had this and although it was absolute agony for a few weeks, it did indeed clear up and hasn't come back at all.
The bad news is that we do have kids up here, we haven't quite managed to find out where they're coming from yet..
Re: Vitamin D Deficiency?My hubby has pernicious anaemia and I learned on the PA forums that lack of vitD can cause so many things... we started taking high dose supplements about 5 years ago now, and he hasn't had a cold since. I used to get flu every single year - even after getting the vaccine - but when I got swine flu ...
Re: Amazing side effect to ClopidogrelHubby is on this after heart attacks- he feels the cold easily and bleeds buckets all over the place with the tiniest cut... but he hasn't had another heart attack
Re: Anyone having seed germination problems this year ?I haven't got anything growing at all yet up here. Mid May I usually plant my tatties but its far too cold yet. Supposed to warm up here next week.

Re: depression and the slippery road it leads to.My respect to all of you I've never had depression but lately am aware of it hanging around ready to sneak in. I've always loved staying out here in the wilds but lately I find myself wishing I stayed in a village with a shop, or a wee cafe - just somewhere to go that had people in it! I sit here at...
Re: Hoggi's well out and about !Hope they aren't back up here yet as we've got lying snow, and more forecast today and tomorrow. The poor wee birds must be wondering what happened to Spring.
Re: It's turned a bit chilly but Spring definitely getting hWell all I've got is daffs and its snowing today, with a north wind that would take the face off you!
