My Gran made very ornate draft excluding animals, snakes and sausage dogs and, I recall, a very long fish. They were good for beating the crap out of siblings and cousins.

I assumed it was 'brave' as in "a Red Indian brave", ie very racist and outdated language, but then I wouldn't know why it needs to be said now. Are Americans going around calling themselves or each other braves?

More than you'd think. The American scouting system, for example, is infested with amateurishly stolen "Indian lore" (it's largely invented). I had to edit a document just last week that used the phrase "Like the braves of old". (I changed it to "people of old").

My communist grandfather, who worked his entire career for the board of trade, mostly in Eastern Europe, used to send us a hamper from Fortnum and masons every Christmas. This was back in the 70's when they were serious about it as well, I can remember my parents trying to work out how you were supposed to eat a whole potted tongue.

The cats are darting from catnip mouse to quality street wrappers and having the BEST DAY.

Our cat got a tiny cat sized electric blanket, she lives on it now.

The idea that someone considers Blair Charismatic in any way is wierd.

My grandparents’ bungalow was pebbledashed and whenever there was a grandchild fight we’d try to gently caress each other up with it.

Good for ripping chunks out of your cousin when he’s being a dickhead, bad for most anything else.

Are you my cousin? I wan't that much of a dickhead.

It's made from milk, cream & butterfat. Are you confusing gelato with sorbet?
