"Inflation is badly hitting one of Germany’s favourite dishes, the doner kebab, says The Guardian. Every year, Germans get through about 1.3 billion of the tasty wraps, which were introduced to the country by Turkish immigrants. The far-left Die Linke party claims that prices have rocketed from €4 to €10 in some cities over two years – and thus are proposing a Dönerpreisbremse, or “doner price cap”, of €4.90 for adults and €2.90 for young people."
As the price-capped Espresso is to Italian, so the kebab to the German?

Nobody in their right mind messes with the ladies of the Country Women’s Association. Beneath those apparently modest and unassuming skins, lie the sort of steeliness and killer instincts that even Glenn McGrath could only aspire to.

Star Wars. just watched it again (for the 5000th time) with my son. Each and everytime I remember when I watched it for the first time and how utterly amazing it was, and how watching it takes me back to being a kid. It is still amazing.

Never lose that spirit of being a kid.
 
The limited number of ladies attending Wimps lunch today. This means that the ladies loos usually become available by midafternoon to cope with the rising tide.

P.s. I am aware there may be disadvantages too, but hey!

Alistair, I’m convinced that a lady was using the gents yesterday. I was washing hands when she came out of the cubicle and joined me at the basin. I didn’t want to stare. Were you wearing a light coloured jacket?
