Cheerful *@#! for my age. Do not understand society, #VAR or what "uomo d'onore" means unless it is a Tory MP. Rubbish at #Wordle. #Nerdle is where it's at. You know where you are with the numbers ๐Ÿคท ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ โšฝ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ˜บ

I agree. If in Sicily & you haven't already visited, pop in to the little town of Caccamo and visit one of the most impressive castles in Sicily. Then perhaps the castle outside Mussomeli, Castello Manfredonico. Both things of beauty.

William 'threat to strip Eugenie and Beatrice of their titles in Prince Andrew row' Development comes amid reports Prince Andrew welcomed Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Harvey Weinstein to Grade II-listed mansion in Windsor

I don't know. Most polls show declining support for monarchy. If you believe the press reports his son, the prince appears to be the protagonist.

Be reasonable. Us old boys are delighted to see such goals, long throws, crushing tackles & physically aggressive but fair play instead of the same ballet moves that after 19 passes send โšฝ back to keeper or to opposition to stick โšฝ in net. Bring back Adams etc๐Ÿ‘

Please can you explain the fuss about ISA savings? Why not use NS&I to offer products to savers and investors. Isn't an NS&I account of any sort lending the Government money to invest ?

It's times like these when NS&I again fail to deliver on products to do the job. Just up the PB ยฃ50k limit, tax free, so everybody piles in to give HM Government money. ๐Ÿคท Otherwise what's the point of NS&I ...
