I've got one too - perfect rice every time and the fraction of the price of rice cookers in general
I think it's generally accepted that that would have been an upgrade on what was actually taught
it's also a....somewhat controversial martial art.
Where "somewhat controversial" = "generally regarded as bullshido"
I mean I only came on to say almost-exactly this*, so you have to write it now
*I was ACSHEWALLY going to say "I believe 'A Hijab And No Trousers' was shortlisted for the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in 1998
I mean, whose hand is this?
not only is this jolly funny but the hand placement is exceptional
Honestly can’t believe what the Bank of England is putting on our great British fiver
it's a shame we don't have £25 or £500 notes as "pony" and monkey" are RIGHT THERE
all I'm saying is, if they committed to bringing THESE back, then, well, I'd be conflicted
everyone has such short memories now en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgeho...
So are half of Britons, genetically
great news for the honourable member for *gunshot*
it's well known that the first thing a country does on gaining independence is have a massive civil war.
Let's just say I'm not sure how long the fellow feeling will last between, say, the good burghers of Ripon and Harrogate and, eg, the fine people of Doncaster and Rotherham
then or now?
Only if, in the background, there is a picture of his brother Jericho, WHO IS ALSO A LION
At least replacing historical figures on banknotes with animals will take all the controversy out of those decisions
never change, graun comment section, never ever change
oh, I don't know, 480k sales raking 20 quid a go is £9.6m, nice work if you can get it
the straps are nearly always too SHORT (although too long to use as handles) to go over my shoulder. I'm a big fan of shoulder bags / satchels / field bags, but totes are just really awkward and uncomfortable
Seeing quite a lot of "nobody cares about the Boat Race" chatter, and honestly, chaps, I know at least 12 publicans and around 100 bar staff who will very politely tell you that that is complete drivel
I still think about this a lot.
...is no evidence it has got better at its job, and it may well have got worse. But that's okay, because at least everyone had a good old shout about it. I don't have a dog in the fight - I'm never going to be a peer by parentage or appointment - but I do think outcomes should trump process. FIN.
...(since we're on that, LGBT rights started in the HoL, too owing to Arran, as well, so the social side has been well represented, they're not all reactionary gout-sufferers).
BUT everyone hates the hereditary principle now, and it has been on the way out for years, with mass support, but there...
...strip out class prejudice, & the hereditary principle IS pretty close to random, and some of the most reforming and left wing advocates throughout history were hereditary peers - the Earl of Longford, for one, Viscount Stansgate for another - so it passes the "they'd all be tories" test too...
I'll play.
The best way to choose the upper house would be entirely random, although you would then have to spend a long time educating those chosen in the niceties of the constitution and civics. Nomination is open to abuse and election creates the difficulty of a mandate....
scottish notes (as voted on by the people of the United Kingdom as a whole)
£5: Renton and Sickboy from the original 90s poster
