I can't take any credit for this post. Its one of the emails doing the rounds and I figured I figured I would share it on here for those who've not read it. My mum used to cut chicken, chop eggs and spread butter on bread on the same cutting board with the same knife and no bleach, but we didn't seem to get food poisoning.

Desk Housework
I seem to be constantly having an argument with my desk, yes I said desk. I am not lucky enough to have a separate room with an office set up in it; instead my desk is in my lounge.

A Level Result Time & Benefits
With the A level results out today and children returning to schools and colleges in a few weeks time, I thought we would have a quick look at what financial support could be available to help cover educational costs. If your child is at school or college and 16 or over you may still get Child Benefit and Child Tax Credit up till their 20th birthday if they are in non-advanced education. ... VIEW POST
