reading some rants on a certain national papers blog pages i got thinking about all the great and good things that have flown over the atlantic to us. according to one blogger us old europeans owe it all to them, so from the hoodie and beyond, what are your fave imports from the states?.. all tongue in cheek of course.

according to wikipedia the online thingy monks were the first to bring the hooded top to the world. however, 'the hoodie' is traced back to the states, but apparently does not carry the same negative image.


i would like to add to the list paris hilton, bless her and all that are driven by her.


just to remind all, please, this is meant to be fun and is not an attack on the states at all in the least/slightest blah blah ...

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By ianr · Posted

      That's interesting.   I see there are plenty of thumbnail descriptions available on the web, mainly from solicitor's practices,  of the types of citation.  I think this has the most detailed and circumspect one in some respects that I've seen so far. https://www.thegazette.co.uk/wills-and-probate/content/103565.   Other sites can probably help fill in the picture. I like the word "intermeddling".  Never come across it before, not even in a crossword.

      It sounds like a horrendous situation and I truly sympathise. And to make it worse, he is probably handling other deceased estates in a similar manner. Given that (1) the main beneficiary is  "the typical 'friend'" and (2) the main asset has diminished in value and continues to do so (3) he will be deducting fees then there may be be nor very much left at the end of it. That being the case, I would press the case against him through the Probate Registry.  to have him passed over using a citation process.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Considering the private revision study that my children undertook, perhaps 15 to 20 years ago in that library it seems a shame they have timed the refurbishment so it won't be open at this crucial time for children. But hey, so long as it's greener...
