If I could have anything, it would be to be able to afford to move away from the damp, tiny, house I live in. We haven't had a cooker in two years because the landlord doesn't bother and it's really getting me down that I'm 30 and still can't afford to live any better than a student. Mates are buying places and setting themselves up and we'll never earn enough to save for a deposit. Other than that, I don't really need anything. I like geeky nerdy stuff and people tend to buy silly things which is great. And dog treats for the four mutts always helps

A robot. Not a fancy human looking thing, one that belongs in a 1940's science fiction film with a glass head full of lights and cogs and speaks funny. It's all I ever really wanted.

dave I'll do your assignments if you grade papers for my class. I just want my dad to be in good health. I haven't seen him since May. He's been having falls and his mental state isn't as sharp as it's been. He's not taking care of himself. It's more and more upsetting each time I see him.

Realistically, my wish would be for my dad too. Since me and my sis moved out, he's alone and I do worry (despite him being in good health - he's still climbing on roofs and fixing things around the house at almost 70!) He's much more introverted/shy than me so never leaves his home... I wish he'd find a nice lady, as he's such a great caring guy (and great cook!) Looking forward to seeing both him and my sis in 2 days time

What I would love for Christmas is for my hair to grow 2...maybe 3 feet But what I really wish is that all of you guys are able to get what you dream for. You guys are all beautiful and deserve nothing but the best! Much ♡

On a similar note, I think I'd like my hair on the top of my head to grow in normally again , rather than being sparse. Please? Long shot I know.
Maybe a nice frost so it's all white and sparkly but not as damp and slushy as snow gets here after a couple of days. Plants like a nice hard frost too.... make it feel like it's actually winter.

Have you tried taking biotin? Lauren mentioned that there are some great products to promote hair growth - shall I ask her for you?

Yes please danzia anything Lauren could suggest would be useful. I've not tried biotin yet. I take the strongest dose I can find of biotin. I don't know much about if it can be helpful for thinning. The product Lauren recommends is called Nioxin. Go to nioxin.com. There are different formulas for different hair types. You can also go to a salon and have a consultation with a certified specialist - and it looks like there are salons in the U.K. I think it's a bit pricey but she got it for her boyfriend and I think her parents and they're having really good results.

Cheers. I read through some of the info about Biotin, and if there's no deficiency of vit B7 in your system it can cause severe acne breakouts. I've started taking evening primrose oil again as it can inhibit the conversion of testosterone. Most of the hair loss I've noticed seems to be following a male pattern, so I'll see how that goes for now.
