Re: At the 11th Hour of the 11th Day of the 11th Month - I Shall Remember Them.

That's really nice. To anyone else it's just an old tin box, but to you it's sort of priceless, a link to your past.

You might be able to find out more about your grandad by searching...

Re: Go outside, get some fresh air and spot the shooting stars

Re: The Fast Diet

I couldn't agree more with that, but you're missing the point.

Re: What's the most face value you've paid for a single concert ticket?

Can't remember how much I paid, but the most expensive was probably to see Leonard Cohen in Venice, especially if you factor in flight costs, etc. It was a second row seat in St Marks Square though,...
