Popular Post peterms Posted November 16, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 16, 2018 How to escape sharks, while surfing. Quote Sharky Waters After reading Amia Srinivasan’s article about great white sharks, I consulted my experienced surfer friend Doug on the matter of how to remain safe from attacks (LRB, 11 October). While Doug agrees with most of Srinivasan’s advice, especially about not surfing alone, he disagrees that surfers shouldn’t carry a knife. Doug believes the best way to optimise your personal safety in the presence of a great white is to quickly jab a knife into your surfing partner’s leg then retreat as fast as possible to the beach.

choffer Posted December 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2018 Do people still send Christmas cards or is it a thing of the past? Alternative question - do I have no friends? Current count - 2 received. (One from my mother and one from the curry house). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternative question - do I have no friends? Current count - 2 received. (One from my mother and one from the curry house). Haven't sent any in about 10 years (apart from to my parents). Not even cheap ones to work colleagues. I generally receive 1 per year - from my parents. Edited December 10, 2018 by Xela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote The Point! is the sixth studio album by American songwriter and musician Harry Nilsson, released in late 1970. It was accompanied by an animated film adaptation directed by Fred Wolf, which aired a few weeks after the album's release in early February 1971 on the ABC-TV network. Its lead single, "Me and My Arrow", peaked at number 34 on the Billboard Hot 100. Wiki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Stockport County were formed in 1883 as Heaton Norris Rovers by members of the Wycliffe Congressional Church, and played their first recorded game in October the next year. Shortly after they merged with a similarly named club, Heaton Norris, and on 24 May 1890 changed their name to Stockport County with reference to the newly formed County Borough of Stockport. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/County_Borough_of_Stockport Quote Under the terms of the Local Government Act 1888 Stockport was constituted a county borough in 1889, independent of the county councils of Cheshire and Lancashire. The county borough continued to be divided between the two counties for judicial and lieutenancy purposes until 1894, when it was placed entirely in Cheshire.
