    Will Cummings go?

    Apparently, the Labour statement said the following: They are completely wrong, of course. There's nothing we expect more in this day and age than for there to be one rule for us and another for Johnson's lackeys.

    [Humour] The continued drop in English language standards.

    I noticed a magazine on the shelves in a shop the other day. It was called Eat Healthy. I nearly kicked the stand over in rage.

    [News] Arnhem a bridge too far.

    My grandfather was awarded the Military Cross for his actions at Arnhem. Here's a rather garbled account of what happened. And there's a bit more detail if you scroll down to 'The Flight of LK545' on this link, including how a section of my grandfather's plane's fuselage was found having...

    [News] Alabama - Women's rights

    However, presumably not any Tom, Dick or Harry can perform an abortion in Illinois? This is from the University of Chicago website. It would appear that doctors perform surgical abortions, while others can provide a medication abortion - which is the administering of tablets.

    [News] Alabama - Women's rights

    What people seem to be forgetting is that women have always sought abortions, whether the procedure is legal or not. Women in Alabama will continue to seek and obtain abortions even if the law is passed - they'll just be carried out in highly dangerous environments by unqualified individuals.

    [Music] Keith Flint of The Prodigy - RIP

    Saw them at Knebworth on the Saturday and they knocked spots off Oasis, who were like a load of grandads by comparison.

    [News] Liam neeson

    A line from Gary Younge's piece about it in the Guardian: “She said it was a black person.” At this point one has to wonder what would have happened if the answer had been a white person. Would Neeson have gone out looking for a “white bastard” to kill? Or would he just have killed himself? Is...

    [News] More than 100 firefighters tackle Croydon blaze

    You have to take out the storage company’s own insurance when you take on the unit. We took out the minimum cover, as there wasn’t really anything of material value in our unit. Hopefully those who had business stock and more valuable possessions had a higher level of cover.

    [News] More than 100 firefighters tackle Croydon blaze

    Thank you. We've got off lightly compared with others. All my grandfather's paintings are gone (they weren't valuable, but they were wonderful and a part of our family's history), as well as many family photographs. I've seen on Twitter that several people have lost every possession, as they had...

    [Help] Ever written a book???

    I wrote a book about 20 years ago when sales of such things were higher than they are nowadays. I got a flat fee which was reasonable, and as the contract came along just as I had been made redundant, I was quite happy with it. When I delivered the final section, the editor I'd been working...

    [Misc] How easy is it to take your DOG abroad with you?

    It's very straightforward. Our dog has about a dozen stamps in his passport now, as my mother lives in France so we visit her regularly. You can travel 21 days after the rabies jab has been administered. This lasts three years before you need to renew it. We usually go by Eurotunnel, as you...
