Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

"But Dad, aren't the English people unhappy about that?"

"Sure they are son, but that's called 'racism.'"

3m - calves' foot jelly was fed to those too ill to hold down much or similar, i'ld guess through to the mid 50s ..... like the ubiquitous chicken soup, it was nourishing and had other beneficial properties too .... i think you may still see calves' feet in butchers in germany and further east, but almost never in uk ..... of course pigs' trotters are readily available everywhere other than golders green et al!

A mother and her seven children have been jailed for 15 years for converting back to Christianity from Islam in Egypt.


Nadia Mohamed Ali was raised a Christian but converted to Islam 23 years ago when she married Mohamed Abdel-Wahhab Mustafa.


Following his death, she planned to convert back to her original faith, along with the rest of her family.


But a criminal court in Beni Suef, in central Egypt, sentenced them to jail for 15 years last week, according to reports.

Seven other people, who were involved in the case, were also sentenced to five years in jail.


Human rights advocates have now warned the sentence is a sign of things to come in Egypt under the Islamist government, according to Fox New

NHS is too generous to migrants, says GPs as many refuse to treat those who entered the country illegally
They warn surgeries 'can't cope' with rising numbers of overseas patients
NHS guidelines told GPs they had to register all foreigners including tourists
They would then be entitled to same NHS care as all other patients
But one GP warned of 'increasing burden' next with changes to controls
