Oh, you know who else is really hot? Sam Sheppard. OMG. and also, there is a British actor whom I love, he played Mr. what's-his-name in the A&E version of Jane Eyre - - Carla will know.

Do you mean Mr. Darcy on Pride and Prejudice? That would be Colin Firth, who also played the same character on Bridget Jones Diaries.

OK...I have a question about skin and eyelashes. I'm English,

Irish and French but everyone thinks I look Italian. My hair is really dark (naturally anyway :P ) and my skin gets REALLY DARK in the sun but I'm pretty pale in winter. Weirdest thing was when I got my genetic test results back, my celiac gene was the Mediterranean one.??????

LOL Well, that gene got there somehow!!! ;)

Thanks for all the well-wishes. I'm starting to feel a little better after a shocking start on all these meds.

:lol: Yes, that may be somewhat true, but I did show up before hair was mentioned. I wasn't feeling good and this thread was quiet anyway ...

well whatever the reason, glad to see you here! :)

no, it's the Irish actor, mentioned in one of my posts above. I DO also love Colin Firth, he is adorable, I would SO date him. ;)

OMG, I have SO much to do today and am just goofing off at computer. somebody help me. :huh:

Thank you for the welcome back!!

I finally made it through the posts .... My favorite Mr. Darcy is the one in my avatar!!! My second is Colin Firth in the A&E version, which is also my favorite version.

I like Jayne Eyre, too. I don't know if I ever saw a film version though. I'll have to look for that one that's posted. I just finished reading Vanity Fair, so I'm going to rent that movie next time Adam's out of town. It took forever to read, stupid brain fog!

Girl crushes on girls!!...women (+ men ) in kilts , chubby English knees, hideous plastic surgery...oh and Susie has a FAMOUS author friend!!!!!!!...........alot to think about :unsure::unsure:

OMG SWOON indeed! :wub: I am deeply in love with Colin Firth. He is, in fact, being suggested (my idea!) as the actor to play the husband in the film to be made about one of my dear friend's lives.....true story! The woman for whom I occasionally work, Linda Caine, wrote a book that was a bestseller in England. As we speak Linda is in London meeting with the screenwriter for the movie (we are so excited!) and he has some important connections......they are talking of Ralph Fiennes as the shrink and Kate Winslet to play Linda. :rolleyes: BTW I highly recommend this book to any of you who've suffered with depression or any mental ills, I read it in the darkest period of my life, and threw up a prayer to God that I would love to meet this woman......well, not only did I MEET her, she is one of my dearest friends, and in fact, I have a key to her house. ;) oh yeah, her two dogs are my girls' boyfriends. :)

[link to her book: <a href="Open Original Shared Link .com/Out-Dark-Linda-Caine/dp/0552148695/sr=1-5/qid=1169493078/ref=sr_1_5/104-6278517-2216751?ie=UTF8&s=books" target="external ugc nofollow">Open Original Shared Link .com/Out-Dark-Linda-Caine...TF8&s=books</a>

okay, sorry to get serious on our nutty thread. Back to lunacy! :P

THAT is so cool. I'm not sure I could handle Colin Firth and ralph Fiennes in one movie. Potential death by swoonage. Wow! :wub: :wub: :wub:

RICHARD_ HI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to agree with Meg Ryan (must go look at bad plastic surgery photo) and Kate Beckinsale. Serendipity is too sweet and she can rock in Van Helsing! She's 4th on my list to wake up looking like!

OK- genetic question: Isn't French Mediteranean? Susie- Could we be related?

:lol::lol: Yeah, he's my Mr. Darcy. I thought he was a total @ss ... it always bothered me that I also thought he was sooo great looking!! :lol: I even won the "I'll never go out with Adam B again" award at my sorority award night .... after we were dating seriously. I guess he's the reason why I like the P&P theme so much!! Now if I complain about him being a jerk, he says it's not a fair accusation, I knew that and married him anyway!

Gender bending actors :blink:

I hope the collagen stuff in Meg Ryan's lips is temporary.

well now that IS true - southern France is on the med. So, Bev is perhaps Southern French. My French ancestors, surname of Michel, were Huguenots - crazy French protestants, right? I"ll have to research more. Have always had a curious vigilante streak adn a strong sense of justice....did I tell y'all that my great-great-great- and maybe one more great uncles were the Garrett Brothers (for our friend across the pond, Sheriff Pat Garrett hunted down and killed Billy the Kidd, famous Wild West outlaw). :D

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.
    • Scott Adams
      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!
    • Scott Adams
      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
