They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Following a recent 'foiled terrorist attempt' on an aircraft from Amsterdam to the US, further security measures have been put in place on flights entering the US. These include a ban on passengers leaving their seats during the last hour of the flight, and a ban on those passengers holding anything on their laps during that time. Seems I had a bit of a precog event: http://members.dooyoo.co.uk/discussion/the-war-against-terrorism/1033758/

Howdy all - I'm mattygroves on the 'other side' (two other sides, actually.)

I put the 10 in my username by mistake. *sigh*

I'm the guide for Health. Take from that what you will, but any questions, please do shout. I don't usually comment to explain a rating, but if you'd like feedback, please do send me a PM, and I will happily oblige.

Health conditions sit in the Dooyoo Lounge, so I don't normally catch those. However, if you'd like me to have a look, please do PM me.

Is it REALLY worth paying 50p for food items that cost less than that? Or indeed for any food items? Who comparison shops for economy tinned tomatoes and the like?

There's a wonderful guide to rating on Dooyoo on the community page, straight from the Dooyoo Towers' mouths - have a read - they say it better than I can -
