Chiefly British

@height8 I didn't think stop was a traditional French word. Perhaps it is.

Why are there 'stop' signs on French roads…rather than arrêt? I've seen them in films.

@matigo I thought Japanese people were well trained and polite.

@streakmachine The problems of sitting all the time are well documented but being on yer feet all day can lead to varicose veins etc.

@streakmachine I don't think humans are designed to either sit or stand all the time. We need move and change position quite often in an ideal situation.

@bazbt3 Spam fritters? Well that sounds healthy.

Chippy tea.

One has to hope that when one is served pigeon, it is Wood Pigeon fat on field grain and not feral pigeon fat on discarded doughnuts.

@matigo I ate it. It was like rubber discs. Not like chicken.

@matigo Well your grandad sounds pretty typical for his generation.
