inglish

Excellent piece about the lack of teaching of foreign languages in the UK. When I look at grammar on FB, Twitter, etc I wonder if English has been abandoned as a lesson too.

'confirmed lifelong bachelor' with homo-hater Mary Whitehouse. He supported her 'Festival Of Light' (a movement aimed at stopping people having fun). At one of their rally's in Westminster in 1971 the GLF (gay liberation front) invaded the meeting in drag and released hundreds of mice and switched all the lights out. Hilarious.

Work medical - fit as a fiddle. No glasses, no hearing aid, perfect blood pressure, clear lungs. However, 1 year shy of 50, a front tooth has a fracture in the root and needs to be pulled out. Denture or implant? £250 vs £2000. No contest, I'm not vain enough to cough up the cost of a first-class plane ticket to Orlando.
