Any fin wrong with fish puns?

This isn't the plaice for such awful jokes.

Congrats! 24 years old aswell! Seems I've got 1 year to buck my ideas up and get myself a GTR too

I believe they're Genetically/Physically superior and have also trained harder, had better access to facilities etc like you say. On the subject of genetics, I would say they're gifted but not by some divine being, just in the sense of the word - A gift from evolution and natural selection!

Yes, there definitely are genetic limits to a persons potential, be it physical or intellectual - it's just how we're wired. Think bodybuilding, theres only a certain amount of muscle a person can develop in their lifetime. (Ignoring roids) or Runners for example, The types of muscle fibres we have in our bodies are either fast twitch or slow twitch fibres. Certain ethnicities may predominately have an abudance of one type of fibre which may lead them to excel at sprinting or Endurance respectively. Of course, for the average athlete training would have the biggest impact but for individuals at their genetic limit, one with a better limit in the first place will succeed! Of course that's science based, but you could argue that they're gifted

My parents practically force fed me courgettes as a youngster. I don't like courgettes.

I third this. No idea why you'd want to entertain the HTB scheme or a 95% mortgage at all when you have 30k deposit, the rates Will be so much better at 80% LTV

See him quite often now, same as an orange HR roadster. Used to be the lonely Zed in clacton but now they're all here

Just started playing Hitman on xbox one, use to really enjoy the old ones on Xbox 360! The first episode is free if you search for it and the full collection is discounted to £18 for the next 5 days

3 day check in, Don't want to speak too soon but the Injection seems to be helping, spent the morning out doing things in the garden with not much more than an itch which is unheard of for me! A lot of Dr's won't prescribe kenalog or reserve it for people with most severe hayfever but if you're suffering and nothing else is working, it is still offered so just plead and beg!

Well, i pleaded and got a shot of Kenalog (The injection) in the ass for my troubles! So hopefully this will help!

Canada has never worked for me, i'm just as bad over there, except in the winter at -20c Sat at the Dr's now crossing my fingers he'll take mercy and offer me something better than fexofenadine!

You and me both. Just got in from a 9 mile bike ride with picnic with my 2 daughters and I'm sniffing and crying like a baby. The wife keeps suggesting I blow my nose like it'll help lol. i have a special hate for people who tell me to blow my nose when my hayfever is playing up Yep, my GF is guilty of this! I end up with tissue just stuffed up my nose all night instead!

Oh i do, I love honey. Every morning i have porridge with honey & every evening i have greek yoghurt with fruit & honey, doesn't help me so far though. Then again it isn't the fresh local stuff, it's store bought. I'll have to give it a go before i judge but as my allergies are Grass & tree pollen i'm sceptical it will work for me

Yeah, my mum was using Trilidan when it was around and said it worked wonders

Only result i got for polena with a search is that it's a small village in bulgaria?

Haven't tried the honey, always thought it was a bit of a wives tale! But will give anything a go! As far as the pills, i think I've tried most of the ones available. Cetirizine, Loratadine, fexofenadine etc (Madness how the branded versions of exactly the same tablets are more than triple the price!) Have booked a Dr's appointment today and will plead for the steroid injections or even look at the sublingual immunotherapy though i'm not sure that's offered on the NHS and is no where near a quick fix

Do any sufferers know of anything that actually works? I'm desperate, for years i've tried all sorts to no avail & visits to the doctors just see me getting palmed off with a prescription of Fexofenadine which once worked briefly. Recently, just before my holiday i picked up some 'Prevalin allergy plus' which is supposed to block the pollen even entering the body & i thought this worked wonders while in greece, not even a sniffle! But i thought wrong, straight back to the UK & straight back to not being able to breath, streaming eyes & sniffing like i'm trying to win a cocaine marathon, it really is debilitating! Anyone had any success?

Well, ****.

Clacton? That's the one

I'm interested to see how my town turns out as it's UKIPS stronghold, what with them no longer having a purpose anymore.

Pfft, all you need is a Zed for your removal needs!

Thanks guys
