Headline in today’s Guardian:‘Little appetite for more babies in China’
Cannibalism on the wane then?
It's probably all in the skill of getting the right seasoning, Lez Lee ;o>

We have a former footballer, Wayne Carey, who deserves to be on the first shuttle. And Peter Garrett, ex Midnight Oil and former Minister for Environment & Arts in a Labour government, seems like a forward thinking bloke.
Not Perry Como surely, please, not Perry Como!
Mind you, Gary Gilmore would have thoroughly deserved it, even though he did donate his eyes.Trini Lopez is harmless, though.
"Perry Como"not the unconscious singer, Perry Coma! :)

“A Transavia flight to the Spanish island of Gran Canaria was forced to make an emergency landing in Portugal when several passengers reportedly became ill by the 'unbearable' smell of an 'unwashed' man onboard."The male passenger allegedly smelled so bad that others on the flight began fainting and vomiting once the plane took off from Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands.
"...airline crew members tried to keep the man contained in the airplane bathroom while the pilot diverted the flight."
EUWWW? - how can you not know or care that you might smell THAT bad?!! I have had the occasional similar experience on Trains where I've actually had to try to hold my Breath for minutes at a time to try to avoid my Stomach turning over at just how unbelievably bad someone in the Carriage has smelt ;o<
They might not actually be able to smell it. My brother has no sense of smell. He does know about taking showers though...
Could be? One the worst-ever smells hanging around someone on a Bus once was truly sickeningly - and it was obvious that it was because the Lad was a continual Glue Sniffer. The Driver told him very politely that he had to get off and thankfully he did.

I too have no sense of smell but I do know about cleanliness :)
Many years ago I worked at a company where there was an old boy, not far from retirement who, according to everyone else stank to high Heaven, especially in the summer.
Eventually, one of the managers pulled him aside for a discreet word. His reply to this was, "As you know, I live with my mum. She insists that I have a shower every morning but has forbidden me from using deodorant!"

There was a guy I used to work with who refused to use deodorant because he said the smell of sweat was manly. In the summer you could still smell him ten minutes after he left the building! Eventually someone must have had a very firm word with him as he suddenly stopped stinking and started to smell quite pleasant. Thank goodness!
I’ve never used deodorant in my life, nor did my husband. I don’t believe in using unnecessary chemicals on my skin.It’s also completely unnecessary to shower every day - until at least the ‘70s most people didn’t have showers and there were still many households without bathrooms.
The wonderful Michele Hanson of the Guardian only had a bath once a week - a fine role model!
Never had any complaints - I’ve had many stays in hospital and I’m sure they’d have told me as would my family!
I go to quite a few gigs with a partially sighted, double-hearing aid-wearing older guy. He never eats so, after one weird episode when we sat in Wetherspoons in Manchester while I had a curry and 3 pints while he partook of precisely nowt and at the end of the gig when we had to wait for a particular train we went back to 'spoons and he asked for a cup of boiling water - I've seen people who drink hot water so thought nowt of it - and then he produced a tea bag from the hotel he'd stayed at!), we always set off after tea. In addition, partly I suspect as a tactic to avoid losing his place in the gig by visiting the loo (he's also really tight until it comes to splashing £50 or more on cds and t-shirts), he also doesn't drink anything and consequently gives off quite a miasma of halitosis which a bit of internet research revealed is probably due to dehydration (he drank not a drop of anything between 6pm and 1am at last night's gig/travelling). So why do I take him? Sheer good-natured altruism and saintliness of course. No, obviously it halves the travel cost and at some venues he gets a free carer's ticket so we split the cost there too. I have to turn away when he turns to speak to me though. Not much BO though thank god for small mercies.https://gizmodo.com/science-confirms-...
7+ hours without a drink? He’ll end up with kidney problems!
My Mum occasionally goes on day trips with a small group of friends and they tend to have Lunch in a nice Café or Restaurant as a part of the treat - but they never go anywhere really fancy or too expensive though. One of the ladies always asks for a pot of boiling Water and puts her own Teabags in it ... AND then she gets out her Packed Lunch?!! They are so used to her incredibly mean and tight ways now (she is actually far better off financially than all of the other ladies with all of their own finances put together!) that everyone just ignores it - and thankfully nowhere that they have eaten out has come over to comment or complain about her bringing in her own food! ;o>
excellent posting, sir, that engendered a hearty chortle, nay, a spluttered guffaw! but see yooz *ngl*sh? ye'll dae onythin' tae save a couple o' bob! :)tip - try dragging a corpse along to gigs - doors open, crowds part................
"7+ hours without a drink? He’ll end up with kidney problems!"aye, les, he'll no be looking for any other health issues! :)
