    Today is my Dad's 101th birthday. When he was a boy he saw the Hindenburg explode but he has an alibi.

    Thank you, Thames Water, for your email suggesting that to save water, I steam veggies instead of boil + cut 2 minutes off my shower. I suggest you stop dumping sewage into our waters, cut your massive bonuses, replace your Victorian pipes + fix your leaks.

    Sorry to say my dear Dad passed away; loving husband + father, + Holocaust survivor. As a boy, he saw the Hindenburg explode. He was thrilled on his 101th birthday when photo I posted of him went viral with 1 million views. He had comedy timing worthy of a Marx Bros. Very missed.

    This government has no interest in feeding the disadvantaged. But they are interested in finding yet another way to insert their middlemen friends to cream off public money.

    On a packed tube in rush hour, when a small child was taking up a seat next to their mother, I asked, "Can the child sit on your lap or should I?"
