Haha, it's basically a stronger version of a mimosa which is traditional to drink with breakfast on Christmas morning (it's also the name of a UK band who won Eurovision but the less said about that the better)

I'd like to clarify that most people in the UK don't think a 45 minute drive is a long way, many people would consider a long commute over an hour's drive, although I think that's partly because we know how terrible the roads are and an hour's journey can very easily become 2hrs+ if there is just slightly bad traffic. For a long journey I'd say that is more like anything over 5 hours. I think it's also significant how far you can actually get in any given amount of time in the UK, it takes me around 4 hours to drive to my parents' which is 170 miles away (due to the UK being very old and not built around the idea of going frequently from town to town because they were built when people still used horses as their main mode of transport) I imagine in many places in the US it would be much quicker to drive that far (although perhaps not?)
That's not to say that it isn't a small amount of time compared to the US but yeah, like @grimreaper said, I think that person just hates their dad.

Absolute Radio in the UK is a bit like this, there was one DJ who used to joke that Heart FM was "mum" radio, he got taken down a peg or two when someone messaged saying their teenage son thought Absolute was "dad" radio

We can buy Lipton iced tea here which is OK, I imagine home made is much nicer but even so I'd always choose a cup of Yorkshire tea (milk, no sugar thanks!)

My British brain thought tea straight away, hadn't even considered it might be coffee!

It's obviously the man talking, if it was Death there'd be no speech marks and it would be in all capitals. Also, he had this sort of problem adapting when he first started work on the farm.

The pub quiz I go to (pre-lockdown) does the occasional Richard Cheese music round, always a good week when that happens!

I love all the memes with the rhymes in iambic pentameter, on Facebook I saw a guy diss a corporation for using the spelling pattern in one of their advert posts so I made one up about him, he reacted with an angry emoji

Crafts people's knowledge is so important, I've seen another post about some sort of bone tool from absolutely ages ago and the historians couldn't figure out what it was for, they happened to show someone who works with leather and it was basically the same tool as they use now for 'burnishing' the leather.

Because people can make up quotes for their own agenda and if they were said by a famous person or character it gives them a false credibility and other people then share them.

Probably not, I see loads of these where I'm pretty sure they weren't written by A. A. Milne. My friend had a wedding reading made up of "Winnie the Pooh quotes" and half of them were just random ones off the internet

I think when converted properly they are insulated, it's not just a case of sticking your furniture in a metal box and you're done

There was a house built using shipping containers on Grand Designs and it was a nightmare because once you start cutting them to put things like windows in they lose all their structural integrity. It looked amazing once it was done though.

Mona doesn't do it for us uncivilized swine anymore 5 comments

I agree, was warned by someone who grew up in France not to bother with the Louvre and particularly the Mona Lisa when I went to Paris and I ignored them.
Queued for hours to get in, the room where the Mona Lisa is was crammed with people, literally like being in the front of a concert with everyone pushing to get closer and the painting itself is a lot smaller than I realised so unless you join in the pushing you don't get a great view.
Leave it and go to the Orangerie nearby instead with all of Monet's waterlilies paintings.
