I think the posts of "if I was on £70k" are forgetting he's the soul breadwinner of a family of 4.

That families have the choice of both parents working but child care costing THOUSANDS of £ a month or one partner just not working at all, is an issue facing people all different classes and incomes (well except the super rich).

That is the point where you are supposed to start looking for a second working parent for the family. Two parents go to work, one looks after the kids.

I'd imagine that the difference here is that one encourages open communication and the other encourages (or encouraged) garden shed wanking where your wife can't see you

Just because you don't hold erotic autosphyxiation sessions by yourself in the garden shed while telling your wife that you need to be left undisturbed so you can write your memoir as PM doesn't mean that it isn't the most common form of BDSM.

In all honesty - you really can't compare the irreplaceable Syrian archaeological treasures with an unremarkable painting of some random gurning imperialist. We've got plenty of those.

The big difference is that if you go to a museum and destroy an old piece of art, they will make you pay for its restoration for the rest of your days. Meanwhile if you order a war crime against historical artifacts then you are not held responsible.

On the subject of plastic surgery: I have been thinking that it's possible Kate has had to have an Angelina Jolie Special - preventative hysterectomy and double mastectomy - and doesn't want to be seen because her breast reconstruction isn't finished properly yet.

There are prosthesis for this, though. While that is still a possibility, absolutely the most likely explanation is the simplest one, which is that William killed her and hid the pieces of her body in the palace grounds.

Maybe Kate tried to escape from the Foggy Islands on a sail boat like princess Latifa from Dubai, but the boat sank and she was rescued by a passing small boat and in the end she was flown to Rwanda.

Did you know that (at least) on Royal Caribbean cruise ships they have a thing in all elevator floors that displays the current day of the week, because when you're on a cruise you lose a track of those things?

Window awnings are pretty effective at keeping heat from the windows. They also give a house a pretty neat look. At the least they make it easier for an AC to work.

If they are identical twins then you can't tell them apart by anything other than weight. The heavier one is always Morty and the smaller one is always Ferdy. If Ferdy gains weight then he becomes Morty. That's just how it's always worked.

It's more affordable and safer for the rich to take it to the skies so they don't have to sit in the traffic with common hoodlums. And who knows, maybe you will occasionally get a surprise visit from the airlords when the robodrone carrying them over your slum malfunctions and crashes through your bedroom ceiling.

Betting chat:

I sometimes get a 'lucky dip' for the lottery (national or euromillions), maybe 3 or 4 times a year. But I never choose numbers because I "know" the time I don't play the numbers will be the time they win big & I absolutely do not want to get sucked in to it.
When the lottery first started in the 90s, we had a syndicate at work, and after several years of paying in £52 each in a year and only getting net winnings of less than £10 each over the year, most of us wanted out but again we 'knew' the week we didn't play would be the week it would have won. When there was a quite big round of redundancies, we took that opportunity to dissolve the syndicate.

A "bet"ter idea is to collect an amount of money from everyone and on Friday hold a lottery for a bottle of booze bought with that. Much better likelihood of winning and lower price.

Yeah if i had to live in dense housing I'd prefer commieblocks in parks rather than infinite concrete hell.

E: I know Sweden doesn't technically build commieblocks but those do look a lot like the prefab soviet designs.

There's a connection, but it's not necessarily what you think. Finland is very similar to Sweden due to close ties. When the first concrete element factory was opened in Finland in 1964 and building new suburbs really sped up, USSR sent high ranking visitors on a study trip to see how it was done here. Everyone wanted to build cheap housing in expanding cities, especially so in war ravaged countries like USSR, Finland and Japan where there was a real shortage of living space. Soviets then spent good time looking at how their capitalist neighbours were doing it just like everyone was trying to learn from each other. Soviet Union built more Khruschevkas than anyone else but that doesn't mean that they invented the concept by themselves.
