It is supposed to be one month's salary- any less and he's cheap; any more and he's too flash.

Our chickens used to roost in trees (they all prefer to roost off the ground) and one died overnight and we found her upside down on the ground in the morning. RIP Midnight.

Then write down everything the child says as accurately as you can remember, then sign it and date it.

We can remember traumatic events from younger than 3 but generally we don't recall much else from the very early years: I remember being taken to visit "mummy and Johnny" in hospital and I wasn't entirely sure who Johnny was. (He's my little brother.) I was 15 months old at the time and while it's a snippet of a memory it's crystal clear.
Considering how important the early years are it's interesting to learn just how little we retain of that time.

Let's try 12 x 13- it might be easier to actually do it so grab your paper and pen!
Draw vertical lines in a square shape- one line on the left, two on the right, representing 12 and 1 at the top, three at the bottom to represent 13.
The lines cross each other at the corners. In the top left corner you have 1 cross (first digit of answer), in the bottom right six (last digit of answer). For the rest you have to total all the crosses in the top right AND bottom left- in this case 5. Gives the answer 156.

I'm in the UK and I get a cup of tea (obviously) and biscuits- not cookies ;) and certainly no free 'movie'!
Free film tickets would probably attract more young donors so I think that's a great idea, though I can't see it happening here.

And, if I'm not mistaken, the LEGO sign is made of minifigures standing up. http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/04/0d/99/040d9927bee48f09488ec63f2a60f651.jpg

Sanitary towels do smell though; if you're in a public loo next to someone wearing one you can smell it. (Sorry!)
Stoner, you're right about this being more body odour related. I have a colleague who washes his clothes but very obviously doesn't dry them well- they stink. How the hell does one tell him that he stinks, even if it's not his body that does the stinking?

It looks like the Big Fat Quiz of the Year, on Channel 4 in the UK at New Year. It usually involves Noel Fielding and Russell Brand getting everything wrong and two other comedy pairings battling for glory.

"so, how do you know *friend*?"
- "well I met *friend* at .......", or "oh, *friend*'s cousin is my brother's brother-in-law's next-door-neighbour- but one"
etc. Easiest way to meet people EVER
