    Gosh - you are so lucky that he somehow managed to find you, the only person in the world able to help him. What are the odds?

    When is his 'physical arrival' in the country?

    We had to go to the sorting office a few years ago to pick up a parcel. They wheeled a huge box on a trolly and we had no idea what it was. It came from France and contained 6 Black and Decker electric drills! The only thing we could think of was my wife entered a competition for something and she won and they sent the wrong prize.

    We contacted the sender in France and they said they would pick it up but they never did so after 6 months we kept one and sold the rest.

    You just never know....

    Agreed, except #8 meant ‘dead’.

    They were reintroduced a few years ago, but weren't too popular - haven't seen them for a while now.

    Re #24 - one thing missing from our table was meat. It was pretty scarce and barely affordable - the only options we had were Spam or corned beef, both food of the devil, so I basically grew up as a vegetarian.

    When I grew up, lamb was out of our price range, so it was a joint of mutton for us on a Sunday. Reheated Monday, and cold on a Tuesday. Hopefully that finished it up.

    Harry?
    From what I've read in the book, regarding the "25", I would say that there is clearly an agenda against him in the way that the press have omitted context. They were happy to print jingoistic headlines about it in 2013 when Harry was in Theatre; now it suits playing to their racist readership (obviously referring to murdoch's rags, barclay and rothermere) to put a different slant on it. If anyone thinks he was "boasting" then they need to think again.
    I would say that the same applies to Meghan and the "bow".
    I'm trying not to follow the whole sorry saga but I can say that in these instances he has been treated appallingly by the tabloid press - which leaves them open to charges of bias against Harry and Meghan. I think it's all rather sad and not a little disturbing: Clearly this is "dead cat on the table" tactics bearing in mind the political shenanigans going on in the country today.
    It's a disgrace.

    I have no doubt thatis the case....

    I was reflecting more on his saying he seeks to reconcile after dishing the dirt on his family.... no chance... he actually has proven himself untrustworthy etc..... he is appearing all over US TV selling his book....

    I've really not been following the "they said -he said" hoo hah. Whatever the real truth it's all depressingly sad.
