£12 for a course about how to live free in London. Surely, it should be free. The course promoter should have called it, "How to Live for Free in London, Except for Paying Me £12".

Celebrating women

The culture of over 'celebrating' women is patronising and thankfully in the past

I'm not sure women need or even want to be 'celebrated'; they simply want to be respected and treated as equal to men. Would you ever run a competition entitled 'Celebrating Men'? I doubt it. Me...

I disagree. There is a big difference between ‘equal’ and ‘the same’, and while I strongly believe that women and men should be treated equally, there is nothing wrong with celebrating our differences. You’re right, men don’t seem to feel the need to compliment one another constantly, and that can be very refreshing, but I also love the fact that a female friend notices when the spots on my c...

Oh dear. Proof that a booty-less wannabe, accurately described by Frankie Boyle as 'a snooker ball with eyes' ain't no match for Beyonce.

I don't think it was in bad taste; simply that the audience deserved a better production for their money - all they got was lots of maturbation, teenage nudity and under developed musical numbers about domestic violence and teenage suicide. I agree with you; the premise of Spring Awakening does sound interesting, that's the problem. It's a great opportunity wasted. If you still want to see i...

It's hard to get hold of any concrete facts on this, but Jane Plant, a government adviser, has written several books claiming that dairy products are linked to breast cancer and osteoporosis. Her thinking is based on research that shows that countries such as those in Asia where dairy products are rarely eaten, have hardly any cases of breast cancer or osteoporosis and countries that eat the ...
