On the BBC News at 9 o’clock, nearly 180 people had died in the South Korean plane crash and Jimmy Carter had died aged 100. Surely if they want to rewrite the headlines to exaggerate, Jimmy Carter should have been ‘nearly 101’?
Sorry to hear that Simon - hopefully your one O'Level was in something useful like Home Economics so you were able to at least do some housework whilst your mum earned your keep
