Indeed. There is only room for one person on BE to make random replies without quotes, and the position is already taken.

I was joining you, Boiler, in rofl (now that doesn't sound right...but please, no comment) over the 'crazed defecator' who is apparently both geography and spelling challenged....

And yes Boiler you're right, she's only 60, so not old yet. 60 is the new 30 after all 😉


Tell that to my body, please!

Makes me wonder, how many of us are Great Grandfathers?

If me oldest had followed in her mom's footsteps ... I would be a great grandma by now.

But as it is, I am a GREAT grandma and the grandkids can vouch for it

After I checked with the wife and found out I was wrong, I was going to post a correction but I knew you lot would do it for me.

Anyone considering going on a visit to the USA without travel insurance should be forced to read the story of Dr Sebastian Kola-Bankole. Run over by a lorry in Vegas, bill of £250,000, having to crowd-fund to try and get him home to London, only got £65,000 so far. (Sorry don't know how to link on my phone).

The story is ambiguous. It says he usually travelled with insurance, but on this occasion his family couldn't find his policy documents, so it isn't certain that he is uninsured.

BTW, I added a link to the story. .... The link button still works on a phone (I recommend NOT using the BE mobile site), then past the link. You might have to delete a duplicate "http:\\".

Yes, but only in Vegas, because everything stays there.
