I sent something worth โ‚ฌ350 in the post yesterday, but v nice po man said if I put the value at โ‚ฌ30, the recipient would not have to pay customs duty. I donโ€™t know if this is helpful?

How to Prevent More Starvation Deaths in Gaza As Israel refuses to let in sufficient humanitarian aid, a leading expert on famine explains why even โ€œflooding the zoneโ€ with food wonโ€™t be enough.

โ€œIf Netanyahu wanted every child in Gaza to be fed tomorrow, he could just give that instruction and it would happen.โ€ One of the worldโ€™s leading experts on famine discusses the starvation in Gaza.

ITV News film Gaza from an aid drop flight

Emma Murphy, "Building by building, Gaza is being erased"

Since Dec 2023 the UK's RAF has flown 500+ flights over Gaza gathering intelligence, photographing, and filming, they literally have a record of the destruction of Gaza and have said nothing

I have avoided eating donuts for my whole life, knowing them to be a combo of carbs, grease and sugar, but I thinking of joining the We Do Not Care Club, because thousands of American cops cannot be wrong.

Cleanse your timeline tonight. A quick swish in sudsy water won't cut it. Get in there with scouring powder. Maybe dynamite.

I have never had a BLT. The whole concept sounds revolting. Same with PB and J. I mean, who was the first brave soldier to try these extraordinary concoctions?

No relation. Wish I could put that info in the bio on my books.

Queueing for hours on about 30th August to get schoolbooks. They never had everything you needed, because we left it so late, and you would start your year without some important text and have to go back and queue again the following week.
