We certainly don’t want to give kids the idea that they’d be better off dead. It’s appalling. I wonder to whom I can complain?

The message ‘if you’re not contributing to society you should be dead’ is a pretty sinister one to be giving to children. Don’t we have trouble enough with teenage suicide rates?

My water saver shower seems to work fine re washing the shampoo out of the hair, but I have experienced other ones which are appalling. Admittedly, I cut my long hair after having my first child, so there’s not much left to wash.

But before you think about a water tank please check that your roof does not have any lead flashing as that Is very bad when it comes to collecting rainwater.

This has a few useful effects. First, if you’re keen to see something on the Beeb, you can use iPLayer (which allows you to download any program within a 7 day window). Second, if there’s a major sporting event on, you watch it in company, in a pleasant environment, with friends. I do find television horribly isolating viewed alone. Finally, when there is something truly wretched on the box - like this ‘Planet Slayer’ fiasco, at least your taxes don’t contribute to it automatically.
