I put in my married name, so that might have something to do with it. There's not many of them banging about the UK or many places in the world for that matter. I could put in my madien name, however, I know that it was changed from it's original name when my great-great-grandfather immigrated to the US. So my madien name is down right commom!

Ford and Greg are still game for a laugh
ON Monday, Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill return as the two coolest pensioners in town, Jack and Victor, in more hilarious adventures and antics in a new six-part series of BBC Scotland's hit comedy Still Game.
Like all the great double acts Jack and Victor are growing old disgracefully. Pals since they were wee, they're on a two-man mission to prove that living on a pension doesn't stop you having a laugh. Both widowers, whose kids are on the other side of the world, but living next door to each other means they're never far from a cup of tea, a biscuit and a banter.
And the one thing no-one's ever short of is gossip, thanks to the keeper of the Craiglang grapevine, Isa - once she gets you in her clutches you've had it, she'll bore you to tears.
That said, life can be grim in Craiglang and that's what is getting Jack and Victor down, until they discover a whisky-tasting in the posh West End of Glasgow. After a few nips of the golden stuff the boys...

I agree, good for him. I've always found him entertaining, and I'm not that surprised that he is given that amount. He's great at what he does, and if they're prepared to pay him that much, fair enough.

Some police officers in Denmark refused to answer an emergency call because they were engrossed in watching a televised World Cup football match, a Danish newspaper has reported.
The father of a 14-year-old boy phoned the police station at Gladsaxe, north-west of Copenhagen, on Monday night to report that his son had been threatened with a knife by two men on a motorcycle, who attacked the boy and stole his mobile phone, according to the tabloid, Ekstra Bladet.
He asked the police to send a patrol car as the robbers were still in the area and could be arrested.
"We can't send a car because we don't have the men" available, the police station told him.
The father decided to file a complaint and went to the station, where he was surprised to find six to eight officers watching the Italy-Ghana match.
A senior officer at Gladsaxe, Allan Enevoldsen, has opened an inquiry into the incident.
"We ought to have the resources for the armed robbery of a 14-year-old boy threatened with a knife," he said.
"And nothing in my preliminary inquiry indicates that the officers...

Good point! Although, back in the 1800's, people did more before breakfast than some of us do all day now. |
Yeah, from what I remember reading in the cookbook they would have come back in when it was light and started to eat this. Basically the woman would cook this for when they got back from doing the "before dawn" work.
I am sure evening meals were just as hearty!
