I doubt there is any real beef in them 2 beef patties, contrary to McDonald's claim that it's made with 100% pure American beef.

Britain is now the most obese nation in Western Europe, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Around 63% of UK adults are overweight, including one-in-four Britons who are now clinically obese as they have a body mass index above 30.

Emily Bronte, the Yorkshire curate’s daughter who wrote Wuthering Heights, would have celebrated her 200th birthday on 30 July (she died from tuberculosis at age 30, on 19 December 1848).
And Kate Bush, who had the hit song “Wuthering Heights” (inspired by 1967 BBC adaptation of the Victorian novel by Emily Bronte), also marks her 60th birthday today.

Emily Bronte at 200

This is the US as I know it. You wake up, find a burglar in your house, you kill him, the police come and take the body away. No arrests pending an investigation, but without any proof that you set up the dead guy, you have maybe some stains in your house.

I now know in the UK I would have been arrested and probably forced to hire an attorney.

What would happen in Germany or Russia?

Kate Bush has the most extraordinary voice I'd never heard anything like it. I thought she was as mad as bags of spanner a and some of her songs were quite loopy. Does anyone remember Pamela Stephenson's spot on impressions of her in the 80's? She did a few sell out concerts two years ago but had been a virtual recluse for years.
