Some places may allow you to ask for a “double appointment”, and even take a pre-written list in (I once had to do this after waiting months for an appointment).
The receptionist will look at you as though you just pulled down your trousers and pants and shat directly on their desk, but they may reluctantly strain themselves to click the box to give you a bit of extra time.
I didn’t realise the Two Point games were British actually - they seemed very based on an American style hospital/university, so just assumed they were American.
Sounds lovely!
Also, that definitely would have seduced me back in the day - so I can confirm that is indeed “one better”.
Even… black, green or red leather (or fake leather) cover, with gold writing?
Mould deflection is one of the lesser known type-G plug and socket safety features.

Sadly, I fear you could paste Wes Streeting’s face over Boris’s and it would still be true :(
I appreciate it’s for consideration and they’re asking for options and opinions (and agree that pesticides in water is not a good thing) but putting the already expensive flea treatment behind a “vet paywall” is going to cause a lot of unnecessary suffering for animals.
Also, I can’t see how this would actually restrict any use, unless there’s people out there practically painting the stuff on their dogs every week, that need to be told to do it less often.
As already mentioned, Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries, but you’ve also got Collins Dictionary and Chambers Dictionary.
If you want the genre defining original, there’s always Samuel Johnson’s “A Dictionary of the English Language”.
So far, I’ve never heard this. I hope it becomes “uncool” quickly enough that I never do.
“Well, the shareholders of the theme park will need new yachts, so there’s all the new jobs making and staffing the yachts, […] and the cleaners of the yachts will need to eat gruel, so that’s some extra jobs for oat farmers”
As with any "creates n-thousand jobs’ headline, they tend to inflate the numbers by including things such as the jobs during its construction and the “support jobs” that are required for for the workers (in construction and then operation).
That’s including stuff like “some of them will get a sandwich at lunchtime, so the sandwich shop will need some extra staff” and so on, as well as the support jobs for the running of the plant e.g. materials delivery, extra uranium mining or whatever.
Even so, it still seems a pretty large number, even if you’re including “extra teachers and landlords and barstaff” or whatever.
The article itself now has the slightly clearer title of:
“Green light to build nuclear power station that promises 8,000 jobs”
I’ve had a good look on websites I trust, and image searched a bunch and found nothing relevant (of Lawyers, peasants, Lanteris or Donatellos).
The same figure seemingly crops up here, Linda Horn - Bust of Caligula but I have no idea where that attribution is from - there’s no other record I could find of that being a bust of Caligula, and plenty of examples of busts of Caligula looking nothing like that at all.
I do wonder if it’s something that was previously misattributed in 1902 or whatever, and has since been renamed or reattributed to “not a lawyer” or “not by Donatello”.
The point is to spend hours travelling across the universe looking for an Earth-like planet, with green grass, blue skies and relatively safe temperatures, instead of just going outside in real life.
Can we have an oxygen blockade of his face please?
I think there’s free “prequels” or other ones from both series, if you wanted to test your reaction to the humour.
They do want to be cuddled, but they’re strict believers in “smallest creature gets to choose when to cuddle”.
This is so wholesome and heartwarming. What a great thing to do in your community, and such a great way to introduce people to Habitat as an idea and project.
Very well done.
Just bear in mind that it’s dependent on where you live, and possibly the specific GPs, whether they’ll allow this or not.
