Son of Suffolk, iPhone snapper, leisurely cyclist, watcher of wildlife & drinker of beer. Still figuring out what I want to be when I grow up. Occasionally foreswunk. Not so much mainstream, more ox-bow lake. Not entirely serious. Life huh? En France

If they use a frog on the new animal £10 notes you are going to be conflicted.

You need to be well over 80 to vaguely remember the war.

2 of Britain’s favourite chaps are joining forces to invest in Bitcoin(whatever that is).
It’s bound to be a HUGE success because Nige & Kwasi go together like:
Herpes & Chlamydia
Trump & Nappies
Nads Dorries & Gin
Spurs & Managers
Lee Anderson & Kindness
Chaka Demus & Pliers.🎉
