After reading Shirl's thread about Chinese food it got me thinking. What is the one thing, apart from support of loved ones and the forum, you cannot do without or which makes your life just that little bit easier.  Thinking caps on folks - this made for a very interesting discussion at work.

      My daughter would agree with you. She has a sticker in her car which says "No chocolate is left in this vehicle overnight"  That's only because it doesn't last long enough!  wish I could eat as much as she does and stay as stick thin as she is.

      I love my Kindle too.  It is my constant companion during the lonely wee small hours. I love the fact there are so many free books to enjoy. I still have quite a few unread ones to see me through.

      Yummy - there is something about the smell of warm toast and watching the butter melt into it. Making me feel hungry now.

    Gosh that's a hard one ... I'm going to say internet.

    Chocolate, books to distract me and my heat pack are all trying to be the one though. 

    However the internet helps me understand my condition and syptoms, it educates me on how to deal with the syptoms and potentially cure them (we all hope).  It distracts me, lets me know I'm not alone and it helps me do the shopping which I can't get out to do. Big thank you to the inventors of the internet x

    However, the internet doesn't taste as good as chocolate, it wears me out more than reading a book and the internet can't stop the pain in my back which is currently driving me nuts!

      Yep - internet is a good one - we wouldn't be discussing this topic without it!     Back pain is the pits it makes it so hard to get comfortable.  The last time my back was bad I decided to have a long soak and got stuck in the bath - couldn't for the life of me get out of the bath on my own. Can see the funny side now but at the time it was awful.  Perhaps a sense of humour is the one thing I can't do without!

      I,m a Brit too. I  used to hate tea until recently when somebody made me one by mistake and being terribly British and not wanting to offend her I drank it and surprised myself actually enjoyed it.
