I am currently going thru Callan color episodes, will be a great journey, excellent acting, clarity of stage productions without fancy CGI. I love EdWood WoodWood). Also if you have not seen the Alec Guiness Smiley's People and Tinker Tailor from the 80s, those are a must-see but you probably have already watched all those.<br /><br />Funny moment: Been going thru an EW stage so watched the (butchered version of) The Wicker Man and what a film that is. Then I watched a rather drawn-out psycho thriller called "The Appointment", and in that film there was bag of apples rolling around in his car during a car accident. Some bloke wrote a YouTube comment that those apples were probably Summerisle apples.<br /><br />Cracked me up it did. (Maybe you had to be there but I had to tell this to somebody :) It seems YouTube comments are getting better, not all criticisms and vulgarities, yay)AmyPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318466.post-45516634018907385712014-01-29T19:35:47.052+00:002014-01-29T19:35:47.052+00:00".....This means that I take those pills, go ...".....This means that I take those pills, go to the toilet a lot....."<br /><br />Query?<br />How do the results score on the Bristol <a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/21/Bristol_stool_chart.svg" rel="nofollow">Chart</a>?<br /><br />I always thought Bristol should use this in Tourist Ad campaigns:<br />"Visit Bristol!

Do you have a young sheep in the house? I ask because one internet post on IBS advises: 'Pour the lemon juice across the back of the lamb then scatter with sea salt'.For eg?noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318466.post-79654385597566883492014-01-29T18:49:50.788+00:002014-01-29T18:49:50.788+00:00I had this problem for a couple of years.

Within a couple of months the problem had disappeared. <br />Sounds silly (he couldn't explain it and neither can I) but worth a try if you are a bacon sandwich or full English lover.<br />By the way, I tried bacon again after a gap of some years.

I know your parents are in the med. field so I have nothing to add or say but in case you are interested, there are some new discoveries/revelations about gut flora these days. If you are not hearing about it where you live you might wish to look at some of the links I gathered together recently for a friend, including a nice audio piece I heard the other day. Maybe some of this info will help you.
