Really? 400? How come it has taken them so long to address this?

UFO-like winery by 314 architecture studio appears half buried in greek vineyards

"The concept unfolds through a speculative narrative in which the winery resembles a flying saucer that once landed among the vineyards thousands of years ago. Over time, the alien object was not rejected by nature but slowly absorbed by it."

At the wife-carrying race in the U.K., participants ran up and down a hill, jumping over hay and being doused with water while carrying or being carried by their partner.

The winner's prize? A barrel of local ale.

Punters slam the cost of Guinness at Cheltenham Festival despite price drop A pint of the iconic stout is the drink of choice for many among the tens of thousands who flock to the Cotswolds for the four day spectacle.

"One social media called it, "Disgraceful", while someone else commented, "And that’s why more and more people are going abroad to watch it."
Because it's so much cheaper flying to Benidorm than getting the train to Cheltenham.

Wonderful creatures. As a toddler my granddaughter, who lives in the Alps, would point at the sky and exclaim "Gypaète, Gypaète!" as they swooped overhead 😁
