Yep, same reason people who wear hard contact lenses need to make sure no tap water ever splashes into their soaking solution.
Some might, if they were forewarned. I decline depression questionnaires if they're nothing to do with the issue, but only since I realised they...
The list of blog posts makes it look like an extended row that revolves around identity politics and gender issues. They seem to be arguing from...
Bear in mind, though, that if you're laughing, coughing, yawning, preparing to sneeze, or slightly out of breath, you will breathe in through your...
@Binkie4, you could look at community transport/Dial-a-Ride schemes for some trips? I used to use our service a lot, including for work, before I...
