old toilet stolen in Blenheim Palace burglary 1 hour ago Share this with Facebook Share this with Messenger Share this with Twitter Share this with Email Share Media captionThe 18-carat golden toilet was previously displayed at the Guggenheim Museum in New York An 18-carat solid gold toilet has been stolen in a burglary overnight at Blenheim Palace. A gang broke into the Oxfordshire palace at about 04:50 BST and stole the artwork, Thames Valley Police said. The working toilet - entitled America, which visitors had been invited to use - has not been found but a 66-year-old man has been arrested. The burglary caused "significant damage and flooding" because the toilet was plumbed into the building, police said. It was part of an exhibition by Italian conceptual artist Maurizio Cattelan that opened on Thursday. The 18th Century stately home is a World Heritage Site and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. It is currently closed while investigations continue. Speaking last month, Edward Spencer-Churchill - half-brother of the current Duke of Marlborough - said he was relaxed about security for the artwork. "It's not going to be the easiest thing to nick," he said. Police said they had nothing to go on

I always liked The Two Ronnies "news items", for example: "The height of the furniture in the House of Commons has been lowered after an MP stood up too quickly and tabled his amendments."

Comedy gold.

OK - nothing to compare with some of the pennies acquired by other members, but I was pleased to add this to my collection today: 1859 Penny with the small date and the first type of "9". Came in a job lot at a local auction, so doesn't owe me much:

It's easier just to look up

I banged my head on my telescope and ended up seeing stars.

I sat on my lathe this morning and gave myself a nasty turn....

That's a bonus for the astute, and applies across the board for all TPGs. I've bought dozens of wrong labels

Could be called rex

Late 1960s: I found this in the street.

I've got one of those! It stops water flowing when I turn the tap off...
