I really don't know. I'm open-minded - something wasn't right there though. And even though it's almost 30 years ago, I have got goosebumps just writing about it.

A puppy! (I've just turned 50 too) A puppy!!! I'm so happy. A puppy! Pictures or I won't believe you.

Sending warm thoughts to you and thank you for telling us. I'm sorry you are in pain. That makes everything else feel so much worse.

I shared a house with 2 other women in Reading, back in the late 80s. Anne, and Michelle. It's important to understand the layout of the house: The stairs were immediately in front of you when you opened the front door and at the top of the stairs was an airing cupboard with the hot water tank...

Now I know that about you, I will tell you story #2 Settle in, grab a hot drink, it's a long story!

I'm really glad you refused to take part in the Ouija board session. I don't whether it's because of my Catholic upbringing or not, but I have a mortal fear of them.

How long have you got...?! There are three that I can recall with clarity. 1. My mum still lives in the house that belonged to her parents. When she was a little girl, she'd play in the garden and Mrs Barclay next door, would stand in her bedroom window, brushing her hair, watching my mum...

I'm open-minded. I think there are things we can't explain. I've experienced a few odd things myself.

I don't see it that way. Hillary might be saying women should be believed, but I don't think that's what #MeToo was about (originally). Of course, what it's turned into is something else entirely - and I'm in full agreement with Jon and Doc on the weaponizing of the issue. The original concept...

Can you explain why you think the #MeToo movement is inherently sexist?

That sounds very stressful, Jon. When I was taken ill suddenly this time last year, they sent an advance paramedic to assess my condition. It took him minutes to get to me and he stayed for an hour trying to get me stable. Then he called an ambulance and they were with me within about 10...

How high is high? Are you able to share?

I should also state that of course, sexual assault happens to all genders. I struggle with the #metoo movement for the reasons you illustrate above, but just looking at Facebook, at all my female (and some male) friends who posted the hashtag to show it had happened to them also was sobering...

I was with you, Doc, right up to this point: I think there are many reasons women don't come forward. You've mentioned some of them, such as fear of not being believed, or shame, or fear of reprisal. For some women those feelings are so overwhelming - particularly shame. We are taught to...

I had one - once. It was utterly debilitating and very scary. I was on the Tube in London two days after starting a new job and three days after the guy I'd been living with for many years told me he was leaving. It came from nowhere (both the breakup and the panic attack) and one of my friends...

And the whole discussion about terminology and how language evolves is one of the problems inherent with political correctness. We can cause offence simply by using the wrong terminology - when the true picture of what we say should come from the intent and context.

Clever :)

Wow. Firstly let me say what a warm and engaging style she has. It was a pleasure to listen to her expressing her ideas. This hit home with me for so many reasons. Firstly, I am naturally introverted. People are often surprised by that because I'm also fascinated by other people and I am very...

I'd Like that - but that would make us equal again. Thank you! :) Just goes to show, quality beats quantity ;)

Which reminds me of a joke I heard recently: Q. How do you milk a sheep? A. Bring out a new iPhone and charge £900 for it.
