German TV critical of the Queen for not apologising for colonialism and the "attrocities" that went with it. That really does take the biscuit doesn't it? How do Germans think they have the right to...
......what music the pipes and drums were playing as the Queens' coffin was being moved from Westminster Hall to the Abbey? Probably a Scottish lament I guess but do any of you clever people know what...
.....what was the most memorable thing from yesterday for you? Although I didn't see all of the coverage, I thought the procession from Westminster Hall to the abbey was really poignant and moving....
Prior to the Queens' funeral, Huw Edwards on the BBC said that over 500 heads of state would be in attendance. As there are only about 200 countries in the world, I couldn't understand where they got...
..............I'm sure lots of people, at the same time, will also be thinking of family members who have passed away. And I'm also sure we're going to hear this piece of music at some stage. Wherever...
Do you think her maj took out one of those funeral plans from Bun Life? Charles, I've just got my Bun Life through the post. Oh congratulations, mammy! Yes. No medical required. Simples! Or maybe they...
The massive rocket will take off at 1pm GMT today from Cape Canaveral. I'm reminded of the time in November 2008 when we went to the Tikki Bar on Coco Beach and watched the last night time launch of a...
I just feel that the increases are merely to help these companies to maintain their insulting, obscene profits and not to help with increased costs. I can't understand, don't understand, where Ofgem...

............was the impression I got when the Tory MPs applauded Johnson out of the commons yesterday. I can only assume that the applause was relief at finally getting rid of him. Can't think of any...
I think the govt should close everywhere down and furlough everyone. Tell everyone to keep away from each other (say, 2 metres?) for fear of over-crowding/overheating; stay cool by drinking lots of...
Have you been watching? I've seen a couple of games. It's all very cute. No aggression; no intensity; poor marking. But some people seem to like it for some reason. Better than the mens game; sooner...
I can't see Zahawi getting many votes. He's under investigation isn't he? Even if he's found to be as pure as the driven snow, the members wouldn't want to vote for anyone in this position at the...
...to gain power via a GE and lose power via a GE? Voted in, then voted out? I don't know, but working back, I think I have the answer. What do others think?
I know this is a big earner for you Ed, but I find it very off-putting. Just out of interest, how many users of AB would admit to clicking on any of the ads? I've never intentionally clicked on one,...
A man went to the local dogs home and asked if they had blind dog for sale. A blind dog? Don't you mean a guide dof for the blind? Nope. Definitely a blind dog. What do you want a blind dog for?...
Remember this? It was the message from our generation in the 60's. Now that generation is probably struggling with the internet, smart phones, digital innovation etc. Some people say they don't have...
Tesco have refused to stock some Heinz products saying that they are concerned for their customers, as the price increase isn't justified in these difficult times. What a load of bull! If Tesco had...
A single parent family of three teenaged girls, near me, riased by their mum, always treat her on Fathers' Day because she's been their dad, as well as their mum. Nice thought, eh?
