I caught the last 10 minutes of a documentary on Prince Charles last night and he was stood in a kitchen in the wilds somewhere and this red squirrel came in, knicked something from a bucket and ran out again to eat it. Fantastic. The fact that it was a red and not a grey cheered me up no end. Let’s get rid of them and bring back the Red’s. We could do the same with the squirrels whilst we’re at it!

I bet it was a special stunt squirrel - trained to do look cute around the royal family.

I have no problem with grey squirrels, red ones are lovely too, but you cant blame the greys for carrying the parapox virus. They both live on different types of woodland so its not as if the greys muscle in on the reds territory or anything.

I believe Lettuce as a girls name was quite common then too.

Lettice.

How come so many Victorian novels have characters in them called Fanny? I don't know a single girl called Fanny, even though it is a very nice name.

How about Fanny Cradock, the '60s TV cookery celebrity?

The name Fanny is a diminutive of Frances.
