'Things to do with...plastic cd cases. Save lots and paint them with letters for a giant scrabble board'

This handy tip was in last weeks Pick me Up magazine. Why!? and What!?

Share some please, real or made up. I need cheering up.

Plant spirits called Diva's??

So that's why my begonias are so high maintenance.

Sample quote "Perhaps it was something to do with my 36G boobs, but I'd always been an over-producer".

GetOrfMoiLand that article warrants a thread of its own. Blardy hell.

I know - I pasted the thread before I actually read it properly.

Then I read it - I don't know if it got funnier or more frightening the more I read!!

Mind you, if we start flooding the board with Pick Me up threads we will probably get kicked of mumsnet

'Soon after, I arranged to meet a man whose email name was 'Kinky'.'

I am supposed to be sleeping and recovering from a stomach bug when 30 weeks pregnant, but just 'popped' in to read this this thread again.

Is laughter good for stomach bugs?

The psychic pages are spectacular.

Although, their tech can't be all that good, look at the blatant repetition with totally different captions.

Aw, instead of the "text your DP/DH, see how he responds" type thread, next time: send picture of DP/DH to him indoors at Pick Me Up, send him link when it's posted and tell us his response! (divorce).

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/03/2009 12:18

What did a Power Ranger want with a middle-aged couple?

Ryan Hawks, 32, wouldn't rest until he knew.

Nor can I.

JohnnyTwoHats · 13/03/2009 13:17
