Since the BBC is paid for directly by law by approximately 23 million households in the UK, this is aiming to sue each household in the UK for $42.

The instructions on my mum's orchid were to stand the plant in its plastic pot in water (I don't remember if for an amount of time) then lift it out, let it drain and then put the whole back into the decorative pot. I think weekly but might be fortnightly.

I understand the land of the cemetery is on loan to the US, so it is for the US to look after it's own, not the Dutch..

I do like the idea of one of the correspondents: erect them outside the gates (on Dutch soil) twice as big.

Kids are definitely life threatening! When you see parents pushing small children round in a shopping trolley, I always enjoy thinking, "Well, I know which of those things you've got will be the most expensive!"

Yes, the bear was very effective. I enjoyed taking the photo to try to create a bit of depth, as well.

There was some amazing stuff on show.

Could have been this guy as well.

Definitely eyeing me up, though.

I did also have this on my roll today (but not no 6).

I think the prime time TV thing is the big thing, though I don't remember if World In Action was on BBC 2 or --like Newsnight-- on a bit late. There is a wealth of documentary on itvX and iPlayer and probably on the other channels. The issue I have is I don't buy an editorial that signposts to them.

I was hoping someone was brave enough to try to save others. The key question I asked myself today was whether I would do the same.

All my love to those caught up in this and to their families ❤️

Understood! We could put in a 10-year or even a 5-year cut off, I guess.
