My father was 'the man from the Prudential' - collecting cash monthly from homes that had insurance and assurance policies.
Had to count the cash and was expert in base 12 counting.

I cannot imagine that normally sane people would enlist for service in a submarine.

My earliest recollection of eggs is of a soft-boiled egg turned-out of its shell and mashed-up with a fork and called chuckelorum.

I don't know whether this was done to overcome earlier refusal or simply to aid digestion.

Having announced that CO2 is needed to stun pigs before slaughter, farmers have said that without supplies of CO2 they will be forced to slaughter their pigs.
