Yes, dead or at least maimed. Unless you had a lot of big friends to form a protective wall.

When I was GP practice manager, one day a patient dropped off a small parcel wrapped in nice paper addressed to one of the Drs. I assumed it was a slice of her birthday cake - some patients did that - and left it on the GP's desk. Turned out to be a stool sample.

I'm diagnosed neurodiverse and hate the numbers between 3 and 5, 6 and 8 and 10 and 12. Once you get to 18 you are pretty much safe.

The 2005 film is better in every way. Although I suspect it wouldn't have been made if the BBC series hadn't been such a success.

Hadrians Wall, like all the other limes, was to allow but control trade, not as a barrier to it.

Some do, some don't. I'm an archaeologist and can't understand the obsession with Stonehenge. There are far more interesting and atmospheric sites.

Yes, except it can be, and often is the first.

21 is OK but otherwise, yes.

Yes. In the spring of 1977. While studying at Weymouth College of Education. It wasn't hard to get in, no breaking involved, and very interesting.

I'm a diagnosed autistic person and that is very good. My partner gets it but not all our friends and relatives do! I don't have a problem with clothing touching me - I prefer to wear things like heavy jackets as they prevent people touching me!

Same with the original film. Every time I'm annoyed when CDG moves his head.

I've often quoted my memory of this argument. Nice to have the full correct version.

And slightly important if you are obsessed with IA swords...

I was given a Good Housekeeping Cookery book when I was in that situation nearly 50 years ago. I've got loads more now but that's the one I still use the most.
