Anyone ever tried Ayahuasca? PM if public discussion doesn't suit....

I'll not be googling Ayahuasca, not fooling me this time.

Yous are all sheltered! It's a herbal hallucinogenic tea. Big in South America and Native American culture. Not illegal I don't think but has potential to bend your mind quite severely, hence care is to be taken.

NIH studies are interesting, had never heard of it. Overall they concluded low potential for abuse, good potential for helping people, more studies needs. Sounds like the use with an experience guide would be indicated.

That should be the default for any hallucinogen. There have been some very encouraging studies about treating PTSD with it, also depression. A single session resulting in six months of positive outcomes.

The war on drugs set us back decades, but hopefully these compounds can begin to benefit society in a legal way.

Is it a normal thing to brush your teeth in the staff bathroom every day after lunch? Am I minging because I don't?

Depending on the answer, I may transfer to the Work Colleagues thread to rant.

Without question, it is most absolutely not a normal thing to brush your teeth in the staff bathroom after lunch.  Appalling dental hygiene.  Totally unacceptable and that is the end of the matter.

Brushing your teeth in the staff bathroom BEFORE lunch would definitely be better.

Take all the doors off and tell her it's open plan.

Failing that, take it off and fill the holes, I'd probably add a bit of glue to fix the hinge surface to the door as well.

Or

Get a man in.

See on your cheapo chipboard kitchen cupboard doors, when the fixing gets pulled out, including the rawlplugs, and wrecks the 'wood', what's the best way to repair it?

I doubt there is a very effective fix as it stands - there is very little scope for longer screws and most fillers won't stand up to the wear and tear cupboard doors get.  One option is to swap that door for one that get's less use - that's the easiest fix.  Another option is to add a 2nd hinge just below the existing one - probably need to use a different type as the one you have has a hole cut into the door that will be hard to replicate. A 3rd would be to fit a thin piece of wood over the damaged area which would give the screw something to bite into.  

I've got one which has just about held on for a couple of years now but It's only  a matter of time.

That looks the very thing I need, and more importantly, I reckon I can successfully fit with my limited man skills.

£5 for a pack of 6 on Amazon

Entire new kitchen required IMO.

Has anyone ever seen Mad March hares? 

I've seen them on a nature programme but never in the wild. Apparently the males start paggaring each other this time of year (it's all to do with getting their hole of course)

I have. In a field from a train window. They looked huge, like kangaroos and were going for it, battering each other.
