I would have thought a brick landing on bare feet would do some damage. I am surprised they didn't at least wear clogs.

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to
Private dentistry seems like a rip-off. I was told I needed 3 teeth out with resulting costs of thousands for implants or dentures. I managed to see an NHS dentist, had x-rays and was told there was nothing wrong with my teeth that a script for antibiotics wouldn't cure. Total cost less than Β£50.
OK this is quite funny
So many angry men. Plus ca change!
It's Friday and this week's murder is horrible. They're all horrible, but this one is staggeringly violent.
I will limit the gory details, but this is your content warning for TODDLER MURDER.
In Sheffield in the 1850s.
It was a toss up between him and the candidate for Gorton and Denton.
I hope it brightens up, we are on holiday there from tomorrow.

Can you also look into Lowe's donating his salary to charity. To me, it seems like buying votes. He is my MP unfortunately. I deplore his racism.
Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.
My mother used to love it but then she did have Alzheimer's.

A dozen bits of positive news in the last week. From a drop in our debt payments, to mobile job centres to the most competitive mortgages since 2008 and cleaning up the waterways in Anglia.

Wow.
I completely agree. Argos is dreadful. If you open a package they won't take it back. That's why Amazon wins. I don't like buying from Amazon but it's much less risky.
This proposed guidance seems beyond cruel. I don't see the point in choosing to harm vulnerable kids in this way. Just why?
So sorry for your loss. He sounds an amazing man.
I saw the trailer. It looks like AI trash. Way too prettified. Wuthering Heights is bleak.
I despair. There are so many bigger issues and why do people listen to the man who made all our lives worse with Brexit?

Fascinating. I love your Friday stories. This one feels personal as I grew up in Grimsby in a family of trawler skippers and now live in Great Yarmouth. I also love family history.
So sorry to hear this. I hope you find somewhere that you like.

I am beginning to think my great grandfather was the Faroese sailor, though on my grandmother's marriage certificate it gives her grandfather's name as father. All very murky. #Ancestry #Genealogy
The husband left for the other side of the country and all the children went to live with the Faroese sailor. I have just discovered my son has Danish heritage. # Ancestry #Genealogy
Then g grandmother married a guy under his false name. He was already married to someone else. She had two more children, then died. #Ancestry #Genealogy
