Usually i'm not remotely bothered by what katie Price is doing or who she is seeing but a few times this week i have seen photos of her with a guy described as 'hollyoaks actor Alex reid' i've been watching hollyoaks pretty much since it started and have no idea who is is / was or when he was in HO.

Any ideas ?

I took my last pill last saturday as i normally do but still haven't started my period. Usually my period comes on the Wednesday after my last pill. I have been on the pill for a number of years and this is the 1st time my period hasn't arrived.

i saw a programme last night that said that a boy with no legs was the person inside the costume of ET, it even had an interview with him. i mentioned this to someone at work and they laughed at me ! i've had a quick look on the internet and could only find something in Wikipedia that says the part was played by an adult dwarf called Pat Bilon.

Can anyone help settle this or direct me to a reliable website for the information ?

many thanks

Its a bit complicated. my friend is coming from glasgow and has got a lift as far as washington, i will pick them up from there and bring them back to my house. the problem is i'm not sure where is the best place to meet as i don't really want to go into a town centre 2 days before christmas and try and find somewhere to park. is there an out of town retail park or somewhere suitable for me to wait while they arrive (i know i'll get there 1st)

i always shop at a particular supermarket and buy a lot of their own brand stuff. i bought a jar of pasta sauce a couple of weeks ago but only came to use it last night.

as i took the jar down from the shelf i noticed that there is a large chunk of green mould on top of the sauce. the jar is still sealed, the safety button thing is still depressed and the best before date is may 2009.

I have no receipt but i plan to take this back to the store, what type of a response do you think i'll get ?

i'm not after compensation or anything like that i just want to be prepared if they're going to be funny about me not having a receipt.

Thanks in advance

we are planning on going on a child free holiday to the Dominican republic at the beginning of next september.

the 2 resorts that we are looking at are Blue Bay Villas (dorada) or Grand Oasis (punta Cana)

can anyone recommend either of these resorts or give me some advice on finding a non-family oriented resort.

Many thanks in advance x

at work we were discussing reasons people have plastic / cosmetic surgery. in your opinion what would be the silliest or most ridiculous reason for having surgery.

I am cooking a 3 course meal for friends and thought i would cook italian, does anyone have any ideas or recipes they could recommend ?

ideally i don't want to spend lots of time away from my guests so a main course that could be done in the oven would be ideal.

many thanks in advance x

my husband has just turned 40, he is slightly overweight (BMI 27) but not obese. just recently he is constantly tired and lethargic and has gone off sex completeley (says he just doesn't feel like it) he has taken to going back to bed for an hours sleep during the day but is still always tired.

he has cut down on drinking and smoking to see if this makes any difference but its not getting any better, i'm trying to pursuade him to go to the Dr but not having any success.

does anyone have any advice as to a) what could be causing it all or b) how to convince him to go to the docs.

i'm starting to worry now as he has changed so much over the last couple of months.

thanks in advance for your help x

i am currently without a kitchen (renovations taking longer than expected!) and am getting fed up of take-aways and sandwiches for tea.

i am planning on getting a pre cooked chicken and some frozen mash that can be cooked in a microwave just so we can have a hot meal. i have never used frozen mash before and wondered if anyone can reccomend a particular brand ?

thanks in advance

please help me - my partner of 7 years has children from a previous relationship, they are all late teens early or twentys and we have previously got on very well, however as they've got older their attitude has changed and i'm finding myself being omitted from things i would previously been included in. i have just found out that they have arranged a party for my partner, at our house, which i was unaware of, and i will now have to cancel something i had planned for the 2 of us on the same day so that i don't look like the evil step-mother !! any advice please as i'm finding it all very upsetting, i could accept behaviour like this from spoilt young children but they are adults now.

am i wrong ? all answers greatfully accepted as i'm at my wits end with it all.

sorry if this is a strange question but i am trying to remember the name of a footballer that has played in the champions league this season.

all i can remember is that he doesn't play for an english team and the he has dark hair and a beard.

i can't remember who he plays for but he has played against either Arsenal or Man Utd this season. (i think he may be known by just one name but i'm not sure of that)

any ideas would be great so we can settle an arguement.

thanks
