It's another of these "you're probably not eating what you think you are" things

This is a pretty good article about the whole thing

Bone char is used for whitening sugar, so there might be something similar going on here

Dan Dare (Graphic Novel) An all-new reimagining of the classic British sci-fi adventure strip Dan Dare written by Alex de Campi with art by Marc Laming.

I just backed Dan Dare (Graphic Novel) on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/798...

The team behind this one is top notch and I'm sure it'll be brilliant ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ›ธ

Not bad for a weekday fixture, it'll be interesting to see how much attendance picks up over the weekend

Probably wrong, but Team B seem a better bowling outfit, and Team HD are a stronger batting side. Could be rather evenly matched
Don't suppose there'll be any live coverage anywhere?

I think the captain would have stuck to his morals and the inevitable court martial

The kids though? Would probably have been completely indoctrinated

Another day, and another demonstration that the so-called special relationship is an abusive one

Given the complete lack of effort to rebrand, and the total lack of investment in anything inside the stores I can only imagine that this was the plan all along

The Cameron quote was in relation to his plans to do exactly that to Libya though?!

I remember watching the ads for this on the TVs in our local John Menzies and just wishing the Speccy could have a 16 but version

Reads a bit like a conscious uncoupling

Can't see that there will be many arguments about who gets to keep copilot

My guess would be that they put a candidate up for show but then didn't campaign

The thing that confuses me even more about this chap (as someone in the UK) is that Jessie is a girls name
So I end up with this huge mental shear of imagining it's someone who's transitioned

a man in a yellow jacket is dancing with three women Alt: MC Hammer in a yellow jacket dancing in the video to his classic hit "Hammer Time", alluding to Crystal Warriors being best defeated with a blunt weapon

Assuming that's not a deeply political statement about the state of modern Britain, Jespers does get mentioned a few times in later stories, but only in terms of hardly anyone remembering him

We printed art like this on loo roll and sold it to 10 year olds for 12p

There was an article on the BBC the other day that could be read as hinting towards B&E being a bit more involved in their parents' activities, but stopped short of using the words "escort" or "hooker"

I think a couple of those should be labelled Dragon's Lair

There should definitely be advice (at the very least) for which vaccines to have for anyone travelling to the US

Affirmative regs need to be debated, but that's usually nothing substantial. It's more a bunch of MPs waffling on about their position

The Lords hate any kind of delegation to SI of this magnitude though (but lack the power to do much about it)

One of @willdalrymple.bsky.social 's recent episodes talked about Ind v Pak matches and why they're always uninspiring. The idea suggested was that both sides are too scared of the repercussions if they lose

There are plenty of underdogs to root for too. Italy, Netherlands, Zimbabwe, England

It'll be a shame if India win this one by DLS. They deserve to be able to trounce Australia

Is the journalist he's working with a journalist because they had their birthday posted in the hatch, match and dispatch of the local paper?
