I hope Roman doors were tall enough to allow for the floor being several centimetres higher, or did they have to raise the lintels?

Sounds awfully like someone who sees a variety of herbs and spices as evidence of Musk's ill informed claims that the UK is buckling under the weight of a foreign invasion.
Mind you, I'm old enough to remember when a UK checkout woman asked what oregano was for.
1932 election comes up in many places but none I looked at mentioned Hitler's attempt to challenge the result. Wonder if the Time article uses research on records that were previously hidden in East Germany.

Thanks Nadia.
Ps it was obvious you posted just to make snide remarks instead of saying something constructive.
And everyone has that just below their profile?

Might she drink from one of those dog waterbottles with a built-in cup? Like this one:

Because Americans haven't got oil and rare minerals Trump can steal.

It came out at his trial that just before the bodies were found in a Suffolk ditch he went to an Ely tyre dealer to change all his car's tyres for no apparent reason. They recognised him from TV interviews and told the police about his odd behaviour.
