Can't you put the facility to comment on Tumblr? Hmmm.

And let's not forget why all this is necessary, eh...

Fifteensquared won't let you cheat on prize crosswords, as solutions are only posted after the deadline for entries. It takes a hard line on anyone who passes a comment on a prize crossword before then.

VAT at 20% is 'reasonable'? My state only pays 6.5%!!

I've always been 'of an age' and remember being terrified over the Voice of the Mysterons in Captain Scarlet as an Infant schooler, and a decade later, buying Smash Hits every week! Thanks for the trips down Memory Lane!
I've even bookmarked the London Cultureseekers Group site for when I retire, if they're still in existence in 20 years and I'm back in my beloved London by then!

We Simply Can't Afford It reminds me of the old ITN news back in the early 80s. They used to give out numbers of job losses announced that day and it was almost unremitting bad news. Of course, ITN quietly dropped it when the monthly job figures didn't quite tally with their newscasts (i.e. they selectively reported the big announcements of losses from moribund industries and didn't report all the SMEs recruiting modest numbers of people here and there - which added up to a lot of new jobs).

As for not affording things, my local Tory council has announced major upgrades of not one but two public libraries, with work starting next month. Here's the link: http://is.gd/ku7te

The Thunderbirds stamps were designed by a cutting-edge New Zealand company called Outer Aspect. NZ is not all farm animals and Hobbits.

Looking at the advert on the back of today's Guide Mr Skinner appears to have been hanging out at the UEA.
