    Yes quite a few staff in some of the post offices are on the minimum wage or just above ., its tempting to pass a bag of these over to you mum or dad in exchange for a fiver Many are on £15 an hour perhaps they dont need it.

  16. Breeding like... rabbits Image copyright Alamy Image caption Fifteen bunnies later, Mrs Toft began to regret her passionate evening with Peter Rabbit Unlikely as it sounds, in the 18th Century a woman called Mary Toft convinced doctors she had given birth to rabbits. Yes, doctors. And yes, rabbits. Mrs Toft, a servant from Godalming in Surrey, surprised her family by going into labour. Even more surprisingly, she produced something resembling a kitten. Her explanation was rooted in the long-discredited theory of "maternal impression" - caused by being startled by a rabbit in a field in 1726 . From that moment, she said, she dreamed about, and had a "constant and strong desire" to eat, rabbits. An obstetrician named John Howard, who seems to have been less than rigorous with his examinations, was convinced by her story. He wrote to some of England's greatest doctors and King George I, informing them of the miraculous births - including the momentous occasion when his patient produced nine dead bunnies. The King sent his doctor to investigate. The medic, who arrived when Mrs Toft was in labour with her 15th rabbit, was certain she was genuine - and took some of her offspring back to London to show the monarch and Prince of Wales. A surgeon was then sent by the royal household to have a look. The surgeon, apparently more sensible than the others, examined the rabbits and found that dung inside one of them contained corn - proving it could not have developed inside Mrs Toft's womb. Meanwhile, Mrs Toft was busy giving birth to other unusual things, including a cat's legs and a hog's bladder. Medical opinion was divided - until a man was caught sneaking a rabbit into Mrs Toft's room. She was eventually forced to admit she had manually inserted the dead rabbits (OMG)and then allowed them to be removed as if she were giving birth. The hoaxer was later charged with fraud and imprisoned. She spent a few months in prison (presumably there is a law against giving birth to rabbits) then returned to relative obscurity, (or more more likely a field.) As for the King's doctor - he met an unhappy end after being convinced by the scam. He published a pamphlet called A Short Narrative of an Extraordinary Delivery of Rabbets but after the ruse was exposed, he lost favour with the court (Due to bad spelling?)and died a pauper.
  17. Just had a great two day break in warwickshire Visited kenilworth castle (at last!) charlescote park a couple of the shakespeare houses what a lovely county it is

  19. Hi there paddy 1882 H used to be a scarce date in EF plus but I think a large number of high grade coins came on the market a few years ago (pos. from a hoard)and its easy to get an A/unc coin for £15 -£20 now . Yours is however as nice a coin as you will find without lustre , I would grade as EF maybe GEF
  20. get thee to a nunnery
  21. Back to the BBC have they got nobody who can search ebay compleated listings to find out that a issac newton 50p fetches £3.50 if picked out of pocket change . Surely this information is freely available to 60 million uk residents and indeed the whole 7,000 000000 residents of planet earth as long as they have the internet
