I do run my own small business but would like to see this covered from a different angle - for example how to manage time, how to balance life and a business, perhaps some reviews of gadgets and what is involved in running them, real life studies and how people decorate them and arrange them, (in 25 beautiful houses nearly every home now has a study, but you never see one picture), fashion feature on how to dress for working at home so you look smart but are comfortable! So the machanics of it rather than the flimsy aspirational stuff.

I too want reasonably priced clothes, and how about some tips of how to look young as per the book we have been talking about in the Looks section of the forum. How to find shoes you can live in all day that look good when you have wide feet - I'm really not interested in who is making or buying 7 inch heels! Why do they put all these women in heels when we all know they can hardly walk in them? Can't they go and find some nice fashion comfy ones for us to try?

How about some serious stuff on diet and exercise for a change? What is the minimum we nned to do each day to stay healthy and how can we build it in with a specific exercise routine for each age group (and please don't make the sections smaller for the 50s and 60s like you usually do!). How much should be really be eating - real portion control - what do real people eat? (There was a great article in Vogue recently where they asked real people what they actually ate and exercises each day - it was very revealing and made me realise why I was fast - I eat far too much and exercise too little - but it's good to compare!).

How about some indepth book reviews on some out of the way authors - e.g. Marianne Williamson. How about a serialisation of some off beat personal development stuff (eg CBT or an actual book).

Or perhaps some more apsirational stuff we can do in our gardens.

I like real specifics - like a list of 10 things to do - much better for motivating us to change.

I enjoy some of the stuff on the Oprah site as she really tackles some of the issues we women face. She is the same age as me so she tends to tackle stuff as she reaches it which is handy.

Lots of ideas here - hope someone reads it and takes them onboard.

Trouble is they have to have the pricey stuff as they provide a huge amount of revenue via advertising.
