    What’s the weirdest food you’ve ever eaten?

    I remember having worm omlete at a scout camp about 35 years ago. We had an ex-scout member, now training in the army, telling us about about survival foods and challenged us to find some worms and cook them, mixed into an omlete. They looked like dried up fried onions, and didn't really taste...

    Liverpool 5-1 thrashing in the 90's. Bottled my regular bets that day. Normally spent £5 on bets, usually went £1 on 1-0 win and a £1 4-0 or 5-0 (which ever looked better odds) against any team city to win of course and also £1 the top city striker to score first goal at the time and also £1...

    I would guess trump isn't hidding in his bunker to escape any rioting, he is down there with bottles of bleach, putting it into vaccine tubes ready to sell to the first buyer!

    Yes you are correct we enter phase 3 next week. Its El Hierro, La Gomera and La Graciosa (some national press group them up as canary islands) who entered phase 3 yesterday. However even though it's the final phase we are still under restrictions until the lockdown laws are ended, which at the...

    Apparently fines issued were associated to existing, usually anti-social laws. There has been reports anyone fined directly associated with covid-19 will be able to appeal. However my wife's uncle told us that some chavs who have been arrested may have been told (the only way they understand at...

    SpIn started this easing of lockdown 5 weeks ago. Most of us are in phase 3 (starting today) schools reopening are part of phase 4 (due in 2 weeks time & only if certain criteria is met). All our phases are opening things little by little. Madrid and Barcelona have finally entered phase 1 today...

    Well according to my wife's uncle (a police officer in Bedfordshire) back in March, he said his guidelines were; 1. Politely ask people to move on. 2. If they don't, take then home not to a cell. He was having conversations with my wife and wished he had the power the Spanish police had, by...

    I know how this can look, especially with the news about the rioting in the USA, but the police do act a lot differently here. They do make requests first before getting heavy handed. I have been stopped by the police a few times when I was driving coaches, the thing with the police is don't...

    I dont know if you can open this link. But it shows what power the police have over here. A passenger boarded a bus in Gran Canaria without wearing a mask, the driver asked him to wear a mask or get off (it is now law in spain to wear a mask in public place since last Wednesday but on public...

    I dont understand why protesters have attacked the CNN building in Atlanta. When it was a black CNN reporter who was arrested for no reason, not really the fault of CNN.

    Surely you wanted everything back to normal now, how do some parents work if their kids are not back in school? By the way Spains schools not likely to reopen until mid June, summer holidays start around June 20th in Spain, they normally go back around 10th September.

    Spain went into its lockdown 1 week before the UK. Unlike the UK being rules only, not enforceable by the police (my wife's uncle is in the police force in Bedfordshire) Spains rules were set in Law. We were only permitted out to go to the shop for FOOD at our nearest store, also we could go to...

    Every country in the world is possibly trying to make a vaccine. I was watching a Nigerian news channel, even they are trying to produce one. Do you also believe the UK is going to be spending more than the US. Which ever country produces one first should be sitting on a gold mine. Do the you...

    Spain is already saying they are going to allow Germany and France tourist in soon, but no mention of the UK. Spain will only allow brits in when the 2 week quarantine has been stopped and that other criteria has been met. Some areas Madrid, Barcelona and a few other locations are still in full...

    My point really was that hopefully when things are more back to as normal as normal can be, and a second wave appears in the autumn or winter. Obviously if the second wave hits in the summer then things get locked back down. Our figures for the canary island deaths are 156 in total. 4 deaths...
