Is one of the Appendices a list of the other Appendices? The idea of the core index (index!) being 700 pages is horrifying.

Went to make my elderly mum's tea and then came back to watch the football. It's hard to see someone you once loved struggling with mobility and selfishly demanding attention. But that's Ronaldo for you.

A lot of people today talking about an awful person who died but i want to make everyone aware of a good person who died: Northern Irish comedian Jimmy Cricket, who you should all look up if you don’t know. 10/10 all around wife guy, dad, granddad, and just a generally solid person

#NationalBiscuitDay you say? 👀 How about this hand-painted, decorated trench biscuit from the First World War? The rationed trench biscuit was known to be almost inedible. Staff Sergeant Charles Shaw asked a colleague to paint a Yorkshire terrier on one. He kept it for years afterwards.
