If true, this is totally shocking. And inexcusable. Bassam Khawaja@Bassam_Khawaja #Poverty in the #UK: 14 million people, a fifth of the population, live in poverty. Four million of these are more than 50% below the poverty line, and 1.5 million are destitute, unable to afford basic essentials.
Michael Johnson, who won 200m Olympic gold at the Atlanta Games in 1996 in 19.32 seconds, said the same distance in hospital took him 15 minutes after suffering from a mini stroke. #countyourblessings
I did loads of coastal walking last week knowing that this autumnal weather wasn't too far away. Wells -> Stiffkey and Stiffkey -> Blakeney were both superb under incredible blue skies I won't be venturing too far today
@Cromercanary Is it pronounced "Stiff-key" or "Stoo-key"? My Dad always used to say the locals called it the latter.
Indeed Cromer and I spent quite a bit of time in my garden last week, knowing that Winter was on its way!!!!!
The author of this piece suggests your father was correct - but I must admit to never having heard it used around here. Not even in the village itself (though it's pretty much all holiday lets / second homes these days )
WHY?????? Ladybower Reservoir's flooded village vandalised #NUMPTIES #lackofrespect https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-46316985
