Re: Mice

There's no way I could kill a mouse, it would upset me too much. Besides, killing a few mice is like p*ssing in the ocean, they breed so fast it makes absolutely no difference. The future of rodent...

Re: Comparisons between Scotland and England

University is free in Scotland, with the usual 3 year residency requirement. Undergraduate degree is 4 years same as the USA. Social care (nursing homes) is free in Scotland but not in England.

Re: Hello, I moved to America

Re: Wedding Insurance

Honestly wedding insurance is very common in the UK. It was when we got married 19 years ago too! It's funny how, for a country so used to dealing with insurance for healthcare, other types of...

Re: Why do the police keep shooting people dead?

Maybe in their minds it's 'them and us.' Only 'them' is not just the criminals, but anybody who isn't a cop, including people reporting crimes. I can believe that. A lot of people I know don't trust...
