A man whose wife and three children were killed in a house fire in Leicester has spoken of his upset that their funerals have not taken place two weeks on from the tragedy.
A very interesting interview. As I listened to it this morning, I thought how this man's attitude encompasses not just Islam but a very strong message on how to live. Every time you here of the madmen remember that most people [religious and non-believers alike] believe in being good.

Waqsn't he the one who told RyanAir that his family had died in a fire and he needed an earlier flight so they charged him an extra £160?

I think I speak for everyone here when I say something about RyanAir that's completely unprintable here on CP, but which would rhyme with mocksmuckers.

Internet rage forced them to back down on that; but I'm sure they're already plotting a new £10 per passengermark fee to repair the damage to their bottom line.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

A big eye-opener for me was a few years back, in Aston, Birmingham, where I'd been sent to install something or other in a shop/house occupied by an Indian family.
By my rough calculation, there were about 193 people living in the three-bedroom place, which was decorated pure Indian, and had the aroma of Indian food on the run-up to meal times.
The guy I was working with spat a few nasty comments to me about "bloody foreigners", and I confess that I felt a bit ungruntled myself, over the way the place was just so non-British.
But then I started chatting with the grandfather of the troupe, and he started telling me stories of the war, and how he'd brought his family to Blighty afterward.
It hit me square in the face that here was a guy who had been in numerous battles, and had bullets and artillery fired at him in anger, for "my" country.
It struck me that that's a Hell of a lot more than I've ever done for Britain, so what bloody right did I have to consider myself more British than he?
I ended up having a blazing row with my "mate", because he couldn't see the point, and wouldn't stop with the racist cr@p.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

Thanks, I am greatly honored.
Seriously, in all these years, this is the first CCC I have solved (answer + solution). I am proud ! 
Coincidentally, it happens to be the most simple ever posted, but history will not remember that.

No it only seems like that once you solve them. I was no where near and I've solved a few before.

Hate to break it to you, but yes there is. Who played Fred in the live action movie with Sarah Michelle Gellar?
|

its a bit far fetched to call that film live action!
