Hilarious. I spotted some gardening gloves for women called "Lady Garden"in a German garden centre. Bought them for an English friend who was highly entertained.

I am intrigued by the entrenched class vocabulary deployed in the media. A plumber is apparently working class, not an expert and she is derided for having made money out of her work. "Property portfolio", lol. Surely 'hats off' would be more appropriate.

Most people, including journalists and politicians, are woefully unaware of the requirements of immigration documentation and citizenship. Therefore they are easily brow-beaten by windbags who pretend to have solutions.

These people want to go back to an age they themselves never experienced - their mothers dreamed of feminism and read Betty Friedan

Shame. We were planning a family celebration in September. Better book the mass funeral instead.

Didn't bother to switch on this morning. Or last Friday. Very disappointing.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give that a miss this morning.

I never knew that Shakespeare was believed to have written revisions to this play, like Tarantino punching up Crimson Tide

Are you in Normandie if you don't have Calvados at least once? And why is there no Calvados in Somerset?

Back to your roots, babe. As it should be.

Mine suggested that we could skip giving each other presents. Told him I already got him something. Now waiting with bated breath.

I was just about to reply in a similar vein. Don't know about him, but there is a lot of bullying of people who object to the tawdry flags.

No-one ever looked after me like my mum - but I moved away. I know what you mean.

Big difference between Burnham and Farage is that Burnham is actually diligent, does his job and has proven that he can run things. Mr F, however, does appear not shine in that aspect.
