    Situations where timing is everything

    I was on the tube today and we stopped at a station and the announcement came over the tannoy system saying "this station has step free access" and just as she said it, I looked down the carriage and saw this...... Couldn't help but laugh.

    Musical tastes throughout your life

    So, firstly, I have no idea how he is still alive at 97. All that dancing across the chimney pots in Mary Poppins does me in, even just watching it. And secondly, do they really still allow people to drive at that age? 😱 What's the law over here? Is there a limit in the UK?
