It was not that long ago when Kate got married, and there was something else that happened that year in April, I will remember forever as I was in Clacton swimming outside at Highfields holiday park and it was 26°, Not sure if it was Easter or the Wedding but we had extra days off, Sadly to end the story I don't remember swimming for any other day that year in UK

Last week (in the UK news) Pubs were on there knees or had no beer to sell

Well that's one product - Carlsberg - but I imagine most pubs had other beers in stock. That's one thing that has improved in many pubs over the years - a wider range of beers. I'm not sure which government brought in those measures, but a good move IMO !

I don't agree with that as most are UK Brewed, The only one I assume that is Import and that I cant be sure of is Heineken (tadcaster) and possibly Perroni too

Ahh My fav is import >

Heineken UK is part of Heineken International, based in the Netherlands, with three breweries in Britain. Although these breweries produce several beers with foreign origins, all the Heineken-branded beer sold in Britain comes from the group’s brewery at Zoeterwoudein, south of Amsterdam.

Not sure of your point Andy.
Are you saying it's bad that we import so many beers into the UK?
There are various beers imported into Spain (I quite like the wheat beers you get here now), but still plenty of locally brewed products available.

Have you been taken in ?

The opposite, they don't import, its all the same crap brewed in the UK. Every one on the list above is brewed in the UK, I made bold those that are probably the most misleading.

Spain is bad too, It brews Heineken here in Sevilla (sold at a premium) that tastes like crappy Spanish beer, its really hard to find a Import Heineken, for me the taste is so important and why I will never drink any beer that is on that list above in the UK, Its all misleading, and for me its quite important to know that the most important part of the beer (the malt) does not come from the country it makes out.

True - but not usually the bride & groom, one of them tends to wear a big fat gypsy wedding white creation - I'm not saying which one as that would be sexist.

I know everyone wants to be rich, but at what cost.

This guy followed the instructions of a witch doctor in Malawi and lost his toes and his todger after they were eaten by hyenas. So one would presume his days as a dancer and a lover are long gone.

I am sure that most on here would only go as far as buying a lottery ticket.

It does open a question though, there are those that will kill to get rich, those that will steal and cheat.

Yes I did read it in the daily mail.

So odd....

Great news, some so called doctor (those who swear to do no harm) is being done for FGM while working in Wittington Hospital in London.

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-

Let´s hope it snowballs...........

Anyone following the corruption at Tower hamlets. That council cannot stay out of the news. A couple of years ago it was the vote rigging scandal. They always live to fight another day. See the mayor has brought accusations of racism...he would say that would't he

Is that called enchufation.

You need to have 7 a day to be healthy, it is gone up from 5,

So for those who consumed the following as their 5 a day:

1 APPLE +

You will need to change your dietry habits to:

1 APPLE +
:drink wine:

It will be the Whittington hospital, and I rather suspect the Dr concerned was doing these privately for wealthy people from areas where it is considered 'normal'. He needs to be prosecuted, and than struck off, I would also like to be the first in line to do the same to him, well obviously not FGM, but MGM, and on the man who helped. The Whitington has, apparently done some 400 of these, but at least it has given those who are campaigning against it a lot of publicity.

A bit too late the MGM brand has already been used.

But I agree with your post.
