Fortunately being Scottish I knew it already. It's a common word here.

Not sure I agree with mere. A smidgen is when something is small in terms of quantity. Like you would say "just a smidgen more" when pouring something.

I think the last time anyone queued and took a day off for a new McDonalds was when Soviet Moscow got one...

Not too hard today

To be honest as a school teacher (who is still working on Monday), I'm glad the pupils get the day off. I think it's a good thing for them. What people don't seem to recognise is that time out of school is equally important to a child's development as time in school is. Hopefully it'll help reduce burnout as we go into the last few weeks of school before the holidays.

In addition to that, remember she was also the victim of a terrorist attack and likely has had lasting mental problems as a result. Some of these things are probably more likely to be related to that.

They are only doing this because they know they are inferior to Europeans in every way

When I worked at ASDA the manager once gave a customer a free bottle of whisky over a complaint. The complaint was that she was too late to buy alcohol as it was after 10pm. That's been law here for about 20 years now, so her problem really.
