I don't have a cat but the Cats protection league and the RSPCA are out hunting for you right now. Think they have a big cat with them from the local zoo.

Repeated use of Ketamine causes brain damage by killing neurons, in a similar manner to Methamphetamine usage. Should such a person be controlling US Government?

The joy of finding out about them as a child. In Ipswich, Suffolk UK there is a Coprolite Street. Sniggered every time we went near and annoyed my mother!

A tragedy for so many. Horrified to see Americans on UK specific health sites asking for medical advice about meds etc. They then drive to Mexico to buy meds. We might moan about the NHS but it is way better than that. Also too precious to sell off.

People say Americans deserve their terrible healthcare system because they 'voted for it'. No they didn't for 70 years no one they could vote for has dared to tackle it Before that FDR and Truman both tried to get Universal Healthcare, and everytime Private Healthcare bought the Senate to block it

During the troubles, a parcel covered in brown paper with grease marks on it, was delivered to DHs office in London. The bomb squad were called. Finally decided it was a tin of shortbread! People did not usually send gifts of biscuits to government offices.

A mock up of a ladybird book cover with a picture of the Sutton Hoo burial helmet and the legend "a ladybird book: funny hats", because  WulfHelm put this on his Christmas list to Santa.

Agree but not for compensating 50s women. I'm one of the affected but knew it was going to happen back in 95. I don't want young tax payers giving me compensation - life is tough enough for them.We had free university, child benefits , affordable houses etc. Marched for equality with men, got that!

Ofwat/Ofgem are run by ex-executives from their respective industries, they are friends with the people they are 'regulating' and they use their inside knowledge to invest Like if they are going to handout huge bill increases they buy up stock before Worse than useless, corrupt

“When you’re raped there is shame, and it’s not for us to have shame, it’s for them. It’s true that I hear lots of women, and men, who say you’re very brave. I say it’s not bravery, it’s a will and determination to change society” - Gisèle. What a woman.

The Nuns embroidering the Bayeux tapestry had to work fast but turned down the offer of a Husqvarna as they had no electricity. Battle reporting in stitch is a tough job for older nuns. They did record that Bishop Odo was having an affair with a nun though.
