    I get peed off on Amazon when I'm looking for something, see it has good reviews but then when I read them, all the 5 star ones are posted by people who have been "given the product in return for an impartial revew". Yeah, right.
    The reviews for Veet for men are always good for a chuckle, though....

    Anorak alert. That would have been Georg Händel, then. The other guy wasn't born until 1685.

    Was it a 1680s weekender? Who was topping the bill? Handel?
    Reading this you'll probably have me pegged as a rapscallion or a jackanapes.

    There's a chippy in Sorrento, Italy, where they put the potatoes in a hand chipper, then fry them, all in front of you.
    Some of the best chips I've ever had.

    I half agree @Tony Le Mesmer, especially when you read about people raping kids getting 8 years. Cocaine smugglers getting 23 years.
    The whole lot needs ripping up and starting again.
    Personally, make lorries like Faraday cages where no signal can be received, except for navigational purposes.

    Cheers KR. I'll never be my old self but I guess as you get older things change for everybody. It's about accepting and dealing with change no matter what it is as best you can. I've always been open and able to talk about problems though, that's never been an issue. I've even let a doctor shove his finger up my arse and probably made him more embarrassed than me!
    All in the name of good health though you'll understand.

    Please don't struggle alone - there is lots of help out there.
    Just talking through how you are feeling can help. 
    Trent PTS is a talking therapy service and has a base in Chesterfield  - you can refer yourself and it's free (NHS funded) 
    http://Trentpts.Co. uk
    If you prefer doing something practical with like-minded people talk to someone at dora , also in Chesterfield - a whole host of groups and the guy who co-ordinates them all, Mark, is great. 
    http://Www.dora-mental health. org.uk
    They have just launched a new men's group aimed at guys who want to feel better about themselves without going into formal services.  More about self-care and building resilience really although perhaps aimed at older men than you (40 - 60). 
    For anyone looking at challenging stigma around mental health check out 
    http://www.time-to-change.org. uk
    Lots of online information and resources. 
    Although it is down in Derby, DCFC Active Supporters have free fitness sessions for men aged 18-65, good for improving wellbeing and physical health. 
    It's probably full of miserable old buggers moaning about the footy so just like being on here, really! 
    Email them at community@dcct.Co. uk for more information.  
    If none of that floats your boat I could go on (and on and on and on.......!)

    Toiletiquette: The Unwritten Rules Of The Men’s Public Toilets
    By : Alex Bentley | 17/02/15

    Men’s toilets can be a confusing place. There are some scary smells and questionable stains. But there are some unwritten rules that sometimes get overlooked. Don’t break them.
    We’ve all got several public toilet related anecdotes. You don’t want to feature in anybody else’s.
    Which urinal do you use?
    If the room is empty, this is an easy one. You use the one at the far end. If you are second in, you use the one on the opposite end. That’s just how it is. If both are taken, you use one in the middle, but not next to one of the lads who got there before you. If there is no urinal left that isn’t directly next to somebody, you may opt to go in a cubicle.
    Obviously you leave the door wide open if you do that so that nobody else tries to go in. If you absolutely HAVE to go, and need to use a urinal right next to somebody, then the following rule becomes extra important.
    Avoid eye contact, and no talking.
    You look straight ahead as much as possible. If you DO look at another lad when they walk in, be careful where your eyes aim. Don’t check out their trainers, your eyes must not go low. And keep quiet. Don’t be that bell end that talks in there. Announcing your entrance with a **** joke like “Wooo! So THIS is where all the ***** hang out!” will not make you popular.
     
    Do you wash your hands?
    Yes, if somebody else is in there. Otherwise, only if you’ve got wee on them. Don’t pretend you wash them every time, you don’t and that’s okay.
    Don’t whistle or sing.
    You’re not at home. Whistling is annoying as ****. And CERTAINLY don’t if you are in the cubicle having a poo. That is just extra weird.
    Don’t text at the urinal.
    You don’t want to get wee on your phone. And it’s also sod’s law that you’ll drop it. Plus it’s kind of weird to text your mates while touching your knob. This rule does not apply in a cubicle though. Using your phone while having a poo is absolutely essential.
    Don’t unzip until you’re stood at the urinal.
    This should be obvious, but wait until you’re at the urinal to get your tool out. Any earlier is just odd. Similarly, put it away before you turn around. It is optional, but preferred if you can sort your flies and belt out before you turn around. But definitely no willy in the open area of the bogs. Absolutely never.
    Use the mirror sparingly.
    You’re not a girl. You don’t have time for it. A quick glance to check that your hair doesn’t look like a burst sofa is fine. But don’t spend ages in there styling it, you will look like a muppet. Don’t check out your gym progress, and definitely don’t pop spots in there either. It’s grim.
     
    There are some other things to remember that don’t require any explanations…
    The phone number that is given on the back of the cubicle door offering BJs, probably isn’t an attractive woman. Or a woman at all.
    If you enter a cubicle and it’s unflushed and full, leave it that way and use a different cubicle.
    If you MUST spit a big greeny, make sure it’s in the urinal, not on the wall. Don’t be that guy.
    Always check there is toilet roll before you sit down. It’s not like you can shout your housemate from downstairs.
    DON’T SPLASH YOUR OWN OR ANYONE ELSE’S TRAINERS.
    Don’t try to make friends with everyone in there. In and out. Let the girls spend half their night in the toilets talking to strangers.
