I've just read that Juan Martin del Potro had his bag stolen just before getting onto a train in Paris for London. I was surprised that does this mean these tennis players don't have bodyguards?
Now that the White House is open again to the public my plans to visit Washington are back on. Has anybody here visited the White House? I think you have to get an appointment through your embassy so...
I'm reading a book which mentions mews in London. I'm not familiar with this term but have looked it up to find it means stables. Can anybody tell me how stables became a posh area of London? very...
Just a question to see if these cards also exist in UK. My bank is telling me my next Mastercard Debit card will be a 'no contact' one which means I don't need to put in a pin number or sign for...
For the past 6 months I've taken up power walking every day (this involves walking round the village which is just over 1 mile). When the bad weather gets here and we have snow I was wondering how...
This is not a question but an idea to use up courgettes other than making soup. Slice the courgette into rounds. Make up a mix of garlic powder, breadcrumbs, parmesan, salt and pepper. Dip the...

When was the first time you said WOW! I'm here in....... Mine was in Sydney. I just couldn't believe it! I'd seen the Opera house and bridge as well as lots of things to see in Australia in photos but...
Well that's my question. I'm used to handshaking here in France and high fiving young 'blacks' as they call themselves here but in England and the US (and elsewhere) when do you know which one to go...
Found 3 white spiders behind the sink in the cellar. They looked like plastic, the size of a penny and toy like. Anybody know what they are? I've searched the net but can't find them.
Does anybody know if there's a way of getting information from someone's medical records once that person's died? This person would be a close relation and concerning them.
