There are several bits of legislation you could use but I would suggest you cite the forthcoming Equality Bill that comes into force in October of this year (this will combine all the strands of equality and diversity legislations). The best phase to use is that as a non-drinker you are being treated unreasonably and that under equality legislation reasonable adjustments should be made and that you should not be treated less favourably than others.

I think I need to spend less time on FMUK. Last night I dreamt that loads of FMUK users were at someone's house having a big party... there was lots of food... my kind of party!

When I go to yahoo.co.uk to log into my mailbox, I usually have the option to click on news from different papers like Telegraph and Daily Mail. That seems to have suddenly gone now to only leave the Yahoo news. Is it just me or have they dumped the links to other news?

Maybe the other newspapers want to start charging for news content soon like the Times? Hope not....

I HATE internet cafes. They are dirty, noisy because there is always someone on a long-distance internet phone call, the computers are old and full of odd quirks, like you can't use the scroller or you can only open one internet window at a time. I have already had to switch screens but now I am looking into the sun and getting blind. GRRRRR.

Ah now there is my downfall. I always muck up anything with banana in it - the last time I made banoffee was a total disaster. How about carrot cake instead?
