‘Vatican backtracks over Pope’s condom stance’

when I can get my head round it, I’ll put a post up in the forums.
But its believed he had a spinal embolism causing paralysis, but we were lucky with the attending vet and it was a very gentle passing.

The remaining two are too old to introduce a puppy to, 11 and 15, but in due course…..
BUT Henry was a smashing dog, as many people said ‘a proper golden retriever’

June, sorry to read about your dog. its always such a bummer…… I inevitably shout and swear ‘never again’, but then I do.

Mum’s a carnivore, but she has also had an oral cancer and survived that, and her lump remains small, she’s on some fantastic drugs to keep it under control which cost the NHS the earth, but even with other treatment she would still need it.

You are right, Linda McCartney did die of breast cancer, and I agree she was one dignified lady who also encouraged many many women to have mammograms,and more than likely saved many lives.

Ok am worried now, am veggie too, but do use a lot of soya based products, and although a dairy farmers daughter cannot tolerate milk.

dairy, off to look, email Anorak and tell him.
I think that Angela bod is one Frances Wicks, if so, she won’t last long….

My Mum only drinks soya milk these days because she read there’s a possible link to those with a diet high in dairy produce (eg vegetarians like she is…and me!)
and breast cancer. Did Linda McCartney die of breast cancer, can’t remember?
There’s someone who died with dignity. It’s largely thanks to the Maccas I went veggie, but I digress. Veggie women, check your boobs!!! x

Sadly it isn’t wot it used ter be (alternative spelling for non texters)

Just fed up with all the pseudo angst from the babbling masses who have probably been given a script to keep to (see one ventured into the Natasha Richardson thread doling out kisses)

My mother is at a breast cancer clinic today to measure the size of her malignant tumour (among other things)

But every- day life goes on for everyone else, but I do find it sickening that JG alone has ever had cancer and the rest of the world is immune, and her distraught ‘fans’ do her no favours in perpetuating that myth.
And their inability to see satire and its target

This is a satirical site and the satire is directed at the Media.

How on earth you can however presume to know that no one on here has not seen relatives and friends suffer and die from cancer or other miserable painful lingering conditions, and all without the media shoving it in other peoples faces as though they are unique is showing YOU as an arrogant, presumptive pain in the arse.
Cancer is NOT the only disease and Jade Goody is NOT the only sufferer, and people do NOT have to be all over her like a rash because of it.

I am certain it is a “British” stuckup tactict to ask for sympathy especially as she has been racist to us Asians in Big Brother 2 years ago. In addition, why did the tabloids say she was hesitant to go to India, and scared to go to Big Boss contect which Shilpa Shetty was hosting, and finding coincidence that she is diagnosed with cancer.

I know Jade Goody is finding a tactict to make money from reports so people, especially us Asians feel sorry for her. In other words,is Jade is faking her illness?

I have absolutely no inside information on the Pope, thank the Lord.

I was merely struck by the fact that the Vatican felt the need to defend him, though I suppose it’s understandable given the latest headline:

‘Pope’s condom stance under fire’
