Wolf spiders always come back in too. I once had to take one to work at Terminal 2 Heathrow in a jar and release him there He didn’t come back lots of lovely fleas in those carpets to eat

I still have my album Strawberries, and it still faintly smells of strawberry, I loved the music and the random idea of making it smell nice

I hope the judge has the integrity and honesty to send them back to us , they should be in a British prison not travelling the world spreading their dangerous opinions . Let’s hope no one intervenes from above

Nearly a decade after the Conservatives' botched Brexit deal, Wokingham residents are still paying the price. While Nigel Farage pocketed a £5 million 'reward' for the damage he's caused, people across the UK are bearing the brunt. It's time to end the chaos and repair our relationship with Europe.

Many people in other towns like to sponsor a bench in memory of a loved one , could this be encouraged more maybe via undertakers . Low maintenance, vandal proof recycled hard plastic ones need virtually no maintenance instead of wood

Since 2021, Thames Water has illegally dumped untreated sewage in Wokingham 78 times – directly putting your health and our environment in danger. This cannot continue, which is why I’m calling for Thames Water to be put under special administration to end this scandal once and for all.

As a tourist who has visited your fantastic parks , $200 extra dollars for a couple would make us think twice , then you also loose the accommodation and hire car fees from local businesses. Surely a bad move

From a UK retired cop , could someone explain are these thugs actual law enforcement officers who have been properly trained and hopefully have some sort of moral compass or are they specially recruited bounty hunters ? They all seem to wearing a mix of different uniforms . Who are they ?

I'm thankful that I don't live in USA under this orange dicktator. God save America from him. I'll be thankful when we don't have to think about him. It will take at least 10 years to enact laws to stop "him" happening again. A South Africa type "Truth and Law" commission is needed. #Thanksgiving
