    BRITAIN'S LAST WITCH TRIAL (1944)

    Almost correct - she would hang, not burn!

    BRITAIN'S LAST WITCH TRIAL (1944)

    Indeed they were, Doc. There are some marvellous primary sources for some of the witch trials - most accusations were taken with pinch of salt. The only reason we know of the ones we do is because they were the exception rather than the norm. In England it really did get to the point where the...

    Am I truly a "Golden Era" guy?

    Are you familiar with the Beautiful South song, One God? Very true...sadly.

    Funny you should say that because the people I mentioned before were all men! Scott - porridge? Ewwwwww! :confused:

    BRITAIN'S LAST WITCH TRIAL (1944)

    Wow that is bizarre to say the least. Did you know that burning was actually reserved for heretics and not witches? In England there were practically no witch burnings, whilst in Scotland, there were a mere handful. It is a popular fallacy that people still hold to this day.

    Refills for Vintage Compacts

    Mine's similar to that but roundish. I'll see if I can find a pic... Here we go: I've had it for a while now but not used it yet. I'd prefer to have a dark green and silver one, so I guess I'm hanging on to see if one comes up. I am a numpty really!

    Noooo...I cannot imagine a pasta-free life. What do you have instead of carbs then? Or do you just have very little? I'm curious, the body needs a balance of carbs in order to burn fat and vice versa - if you cut out fat completely it can be damaging, so surely the same is true of carbs? I...

    Bullet bras and 50's dresses?

    Refills for Vintage Compacts

    Can you not remove the pan from a modern face powder compact and put it into the vintage one? Also, I'm pretty sure that most of the larger cosmetics houses do refills, so it might be worth doing an online search or some good old fashioned leg work. ETA: Check out this thread for some tips...

    The life cycle of an internet forum.

    No, I didn't think you did! I was merely concerned that you might have been offended by what I'd said! lol Oh, I know. I've never been on a teen forum before but do mod a couple that have a few teen members. Funny though, it's usually the older (females) that form the cliques in my...

    She's allowed to, she's only three! Doghouse - are you familiar with uglydress.com? It's an education, I swear! :eek:

    Life on Mars???

    I'm pretty sure I heard yesterday about plans to build a moonbase so that Mars exploration would be easier. Next thing you know, we'll be wearing those silver cat suits and purple wigs...:p

    Wow I still find it sooooo odd that over there you are so careful about carbs. What do you do about pasta, rice, potatoes, bread? Over here, we're paranoid about fat. In fact something I noticed was that in LA, the Subway wrappings advertised the low-carb options whilst our ones show low-fat...
