I read the news today oh boy! Page 606

That is one of the bestest things about America. Bloody mahoosive houses for not much money. (Comparitively.)

I love how in the commonwealth bit of the BHO they mention; South Africa, Canada and Australia (basically the white bits excepting NewZealand)

Sweet gesture but if I was him I would've gone mental!

Did he say she could cut up all his shirts, or was it a secret from him too?

Seems like it was a surprise. Oh dear. Probably worth a fair few bob.

To be fair I think the dress looks really nice considering what it's made from.

Too late. I know, I know... but she's 86... I don't want to hate a 86 year old. Her kids could at least spend one of her remaining Christmases with her, even just to be the better person. Damn you Daily Fail!!

Why not ?

Why not ?

Because this country already excuses terrible conditions towards older people, and if I start thinking it's okay to hate an older person because of their past actions then it's a short step to accepting a society which lets humans freeze to death because they have objectionable other generation opinions, and then it's a short step to letting people die in horrid conditions because they don't fit in and they're 'no longer useful'.
Don't get me wrong, I won't mourn her, but I think it's shitty of her kids to not be with their frail and confused mother, and I don't want to ever be someone who thinks otherwise, regardless of the person in question.
