    Just a few minutes ago, I was banging pots and pans in the kitchen when I heard someone on the radio say, "There'll be a programme on Channel 5 tomorrow evening about some London bridges."  Thought: nah, and carried on "tidying up".  Suddenly they started talking about "The Women's Bridge" (!!!)  Apparently, Waterloo bridge was built by women. 

    Well, I never....

    Not missing that!

    Actually, it's nicknamed The Ladies' Bridge.

    How interesting!  Thank you, Danae.

    I'd never heard of that before.  Thank you Papi Jo.  

    I'm going to watch it too.  

    Re: "Women's" V "Ladies'", perhaps the people on the radio didn't care for "courtesy titles" (!).  Unless, of course, the banging of the pots and pans interfered with the acoustics in Danae's kitchen!

    That's interesting, Papi Jo ; but the people discussing it this morning used the word "women".  How times change!

    Well, sort of! I clicked once and nothing happened.  I clicked a second time and two posts appeared!

    Going back to reviving veg, I keep broccoli for longer by standing the stalk in a jam jar of water in the fridge. Change water every couple of days.
