Are the ice cream vans run by MI5?

So many churches of that period seem to be listed only because of the stupid pre 1840 rule.

Short of marching people out once they’ve been in for 40 minutes it is difficult to work out what they can do. I took my nephew a couple of weeks ago. It took an hour from security to the tapestry.

Just incredible they’ve produced something this insane. I really want to see it!

It is actually a real thing! When do we open the museum to contain this and the Ed Stone?

I’m surprised the support is not higher in 45-64. Based on my own experience and friends of my age, it is the time when your parents need the support and you look to your own mortality.

I only have vague memories of it, I bet it stands up least compared to Dallas or real dynasty. But it can only be better than the shit dynasty remake.

You’ve one guess what I’ve just spent £40 on! Shame dynasty is so expensive and no Colbys.

First series of lost only. Then it was only what the script writers felt.

Game of thrones and lost (series 1 only) should have series numbers or be far lower.

Reads rather like quite common finds, but rare survival of good quality stratigraphy. Shame the article took so long to mention Wessex Archaeology.

They could still get the Kier Starmer Toby jug from parliament over the summer. (Although looking at it I wonder if they expected Wes Streeting to take over and used the same jug?)
Tiny prime minister toby jugs in the parliament gift shop. Attlee to Starmer. They actually bothered to make one for Liz truss!

There’s some old paint at my mother’s house eight or so cans. The rubbish collection won’t take it, or collect it.I can’t rent a car to take it to the tip as the car will not be registered at a domestic address in the county. No drop off by bike at the tip.

Im 11 years older than harry and was the same age as him when my dad died. I can’t imagine having to go through that and march in public behind a coffin at that age. I can’t believe what his uncle thinks he is doing going back through this with so much publicity on the BBC.

Has he escaped from the Philip Colbert exhibition in Woking?

Presumably they’ve got to find some way of transferring the donations into their own pockets so employing and paying themselves as presenters?

A commit no nuisance sign from great Guildford street Southwark. Found very close to the casual ward of the st saviour’s workhouse.

Hopefully new, unified west Surrey (or whatever they decide to call it) may do better for local museums and galleries. Lots of lobsters by Philip Colbert there at the moment. Some in the free area, some upstairs in the charged zone. It looks like there are still membership levels.

I don’t know. There were three or so tabes in use in the cafe. Other than the excellent and lovely gallery volunteers I was the only person in the paid section for an hour on Friday afternoon.

Guildford museum is free, to see the upper parts, including story of Woking at the lightbox it is £14.50. Whilst some are free it is utterly inconsistent. Guildford also has a lot more story than Woking.

My mother had an accident, after four or so months of refusing home help, assessed in casualty, two weeks in hospital with the NHS trying to work out what to do. She was sent to a care home, my sister and I were able to visit and check before. The care was excellent.
