I seem to recall reading that ancient tin mines might be worth re-opening, and that Cornwall is sitting on a tidy amount of lithium and other rare-earth metals. Industry might just make a comeback in sleepy, arty Cornwall... South Crofty is being dewatered as we speak (it will take about 2 years). ...

Mark Billingham has written a series of books featuring a [typical for a fictional] dysfunctional Met police detective. His new main detective character is in Last Dance, set in Blackpool.

Whoa, wtf you on about. Heres what I said, Also, if its true, wasn't there a murky past with his parents? Please note the last character. and maybe this will help, even though the text and punctuation should have been clear enough ! A question mark (?) is a punctuation mark used to indicate a quest...

"Sunday driver" cars, where you're not going very far, that look the part and are maintenance free seems an ideal base for the weekend toy in electric. A neighbour has a Mk1 Escort, but already restored. Hardly ever sees daylight. Probably one of those things that seems like a good idea b...

I don't know about you but I prefer my health professionals to display at least a basic understanding of basic biology. And there's not much that's more basic than knowing the difference between male and female. Does that include basic stuff like knowing about intersex (1-2% of births) and hermaphr...

Ahh, a professor of paediatrics and psychology. As well as an Admiral in the US public health service. As oppose to an anti vaccine activist and conspiracy theorist. I’m not sure that meme is as clever as you think it is. I don't know about you but I prefer my health professionals to display at lea...

I always knew this was an issue for me (thought I had long legs till I started riding a bike!) but then I borrowed a mates ZX12r for a quick trip to Bristol to pick up a part for my ZZR600 and so so nearly dropped it at some lights in Bristol where the camber on the left side went down a lot more t...

There are very few jokes about sugar.

Brown sugar?

Well, Demerara

Do you think false news is only a right wing thing then? Seriously? I'm not checking jack shit on anything, i think someone on here said so, which is my audience, on here, about this.
