claret75 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Cheers Julie, we've already armed ourselves with Calpol. Someone else has recommended the teething granules, whats the crack with them? How do they work? We used Bongela teething gel with our daughter, seemed to relieve the pain a lot. Also, like Julie said, frozen teething rings worked.

JulieB Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Cheers Julie, we've already armed ourselves with Calpol. Someone else has recommended the teething granules, whats the crack with them? How do they work? Apparently midwives used to recommend rubbing whisky on the gums but I never tried that! Drugs & alcohol if in doubt! The teething granules just get rubbed on gums as well IIRC taste of liquorice. It's awful when they're screaming and you have no idea what's wrong with them. Even now it's the one sound I can't ignore. If I hear a baby crying it just tears through me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted October 29, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2010 Is the traditional dancing of Lapland called Lap-dancing?Yes. And the traditional dancing of Poland is called Pole dancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leviramsey Posted October 29, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2010 I can't find a polish pole dancing championships video on youtube. The closest thing appears to be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VclwdEPBa9E. Perhaps they agreed to jointly stage this tournament as a dry run for Euro 2012.

You open a paper packet, looks a bit like a rizzla, then pour the powder into babies mouth. It fizzes around their teeth and gums. We found it worked much better than the stuff you rub on their gums as our lad just licks it all off. Calpol also a god send. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Got up at 5AM this morning to watch the Villa game, then drove down an empty 405 to the gym blasting this out. Pretty good start to the day (despite the result). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted October 31, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2010 BBC4 do some cracking music documentaries. Watched one dedicated to Sabbath (particularly Paranoid era) and one called 'Heavy Metal Britannia' about the rise of British metal from inception through the 80s. Both great watches, and nice to see a properly Brummie focussed doc, given how much the region has given to metal it's hard to ignore mind I suppose .

leviramsey Posted October 31, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2010 Metal and Villa alone mean that Birmingham/the West Midlands generally have contributed more to the world than most places in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulieB Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Following up on Grand Designs discussuon there was a really good programme on Discovery Science's ECO Tech last night about Green Building. Some brilliant ideas for making our homes more energy efficient. I started getting interested in all this when I watched the guy who builds the Earth Ships in US who was going to be sued by the US govt for disconnecting his house from mains utilities in the States. He makes self sufficient Biotecture homes from old tyres filled with dirt & other recycled materials. IIRC he was nicknamed the garbage man. Interesting what they said about utilising solar powered electrolysis to make hydrogen to run homes & cars & store electricity, because I also watched "Ancient Aliens" & some scientists & engineers are putting forward the idea that the giant Pyramids of Geza were actually ancient giant manufacturing stations for some form of energy. Incidentally the guy who built Adaptahaus on Grand Designs held an open house day on Saturday for Charity...they were inundated & raised loads!
