Most of my family are from there, I just tell people they're from the island.
Manys a Saturday we poor kids would be rudely awoken from our slumber in the peaceful west country to be dragged by our parents to Pompey. A terrifying experience to be sure, the demarcation line of the M27 / M275 junction letting us know our fate was sealed for the day. And at the end of the M275? A drive into the nether regions of Fratton past the warm glow of it's welcoming bastion a.k.a the rudy prison.
Now I'm an ex-pat. Hmmm ...

What's a courgette in the real world?

I know the Americans call it a Zucchini, didn't realise the rest of the world did too.

Inedible.
You'd have to have been born in the weird world called France to think otherwise.

I'll submit a pair - they work nicely together:
Concern grows for missing Ottershaw teenager[^], published July 29, 2013
Ottershaw teen found in Woking[^], published July 29, 2013
Basically an 18-year old lad didn't go home and Mum was worried.
And Ottershaw to Woking can be walked in about an hour; it's not like going out in London and finding yourself in Exeter the next day; which never happened to me.

To be fair he has Downs Symdrone( did you miss that?). Which is probably why the concern was higher than an average 18 year-old lad.

Trust me, in Ottershaw Downs Syndrome would be considered an unfair advantage - think Norfolk without the genetic variety.
TBH I didn't read it through, I just saw the headlines and dates.

£13 in his pocket and he managed to get into that state!

The bar around the corner from our house in Fured sells a nice 200ml glass of local wine [very drinkable] for the princely sum of 25p. For £13 I could get Glaswegian!

They missed off a detail:
Passing women were not impressed, earning Cooper the sobriquet "Mini"
The Tottygraph just doesn't know how to make stories interesting.

As for Lichfield, this is as close as we come to news[^].
They've been doing the same bloody thing every September for 460 years now, the story is enjoyable for a couple of things, firstly our Sheriff goes by the name of Terry Thomas (unfortunately no hyphen).
He was accompanied on the ride by the High Sheriff Miss S C Inge-Innes-Lillingston which is a hell of a name.
I see that Miss Inge-Innes-Lillingston's address is given as an abandoned village near to Thorpe Hall which is the current home of Hugh Inge-Innes-Lillingston and his wife Catherine. Previously George David Inge-Innes-Lillingston was High Sheriff of Staffordshire in 1966, in the 3 centuries preceding that a total of 5 members of the Inge family from Thorpe Hall had also been High Sheriff.
Lichfield, fiercely resisting the future by constantly asking "What would Samuel Johnson do?".

Have you ever had a day where your brain is simply not working? Could be for many reasons, lack of sleep, stress, hungover from Gin etc etc...
Drives me nuts thinking about not being able to think about things in the proper way.
Have you found a way to "wake" your brain up?

Take a break, do some drastically different or something you enjoy, then get back to it. You might look at it differently.
