God bless their little witchy hearts, I say. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving copper-bottomed slimy fucker.

A penny coin from 1914

This is my penny that’s been through two world wars
It was still currency until I was twelve or so.

To be fair, the staff were patient and helpful, but it’s the kind of thing I find a challenge.

I spent the morning sorting out my UK state pension. After hours hunched over phone, forms and laptop, the resultant pension tension put me in bed with a backache for the afternoon.

Oh, I think with mass homelessness, abusive religious orders refusing restitution, enablement of genocide, craven submission to the car industry, ecocidal data centres, one could go on, I think the country has greater shames than Catherine Connolly

We were talking about how great corvids are, and how cool to have a corvid friend, and it turned to ‘if you had a Raven, what would you call it?’ .

16 was in like a shot with ‘Stark’. I bow.

Very well done. I’m probably a good deal closer to your parents’ generation than to yours, and I can confirm that physical and sexual assault of children was endemic in the Ireland I grew up in ( born in the 1950’s).

Connolly may not be perfect but it’s a choice between someone fairly decent and a slimy FG hack. Pretty straightforward really.

Ok I can see that’s plenty of real stuff all right. Tough enough to be dealing with all the same.
