I'm not talking about rumours, I'm talking about real information direct from a family source..

I would suggest sooner rather than later, to avoid proximity to the many pools that start in January.

Those two won't be told anything. The first they knew of Catherine's cancer diagnosis was when it was announced to the general public.

Perhaps the article has been edited since you saw it, but it doesn't read as if he's "dropping out" by choice. "It is understood that the Government has decided not to ask King Charles to represent the country this year. Sources told The Mirror that No10 felt "an abundance of caution" was needed given the monarch's current health battle. They said: "The King will not be going to Cop. He has not been asked by the Government to attend the event and he is also mindful of his own commitments following the upcoming autumn tour." But it's GB News, so not something I'd rely on.

What a choice. Jimmy Dimly, Jenprick or BadEnough.

When he does die, one might say "See ya, wouldn't want to Biya".

Cissy Houston. I knew I'd got her somewhere.

I don't see why principal industry magazines shouldn't be considered.

Drewsky highlights some interesting characters, but most of the rest is spam.

Some annoying insertions of unnecessary words, no doubt a US import. Who starts these things? Example 1: Hating "on" someone. No, we hate them, we don't hate ON them. Example 2: "Of" in phrases like "It's not that big a deal" which has now become "It's not that big of a deal". Or "It shows how slow of a year this is turning out" instead of "how slow a year". An exception to this is "much" which has always taken "of" as in "That's not much of a bargain". Perhaps because it refers to quantity.

I'm up to 200 and 34.4% by their counting. Update: final score

LOL nobody wears hair straighteners ! It's an electrical appliance. You can also get the opposite, curling tongs or crimpers. For the purposes of the question you could substitute any electrical appliance that heats up, hence my comment about an iron. Disclaimer: I very rarely use an iron. On that occasion I was going on a work trip where I had to wear company uniform, so had to iron some shirts.

Yeah, but 47.8M of those were mymango.

Yeah, I don't use hair straighteners but I did once leave the house with the iron still on and was away for a week. Fortunately it wasn't my house.

No known major health issues though, and he passed a full medical exam just weeks before his death.

There's several versions in that report of what he said. ‘Is Dame Esther Rantzen with us?’ I can't see a problem with that. On the other hand .... ‘Is Dame Esther Rantzen still with us?’ That "still" makes all the difference.
