Today I suddenly wondered, for no reason whatsoever...
Did the Old Bailey ever just get called the Bailey? Or even the New Bailey?
Does anyone know & do you have any other random questions to share with the group?

Sounds like a plan, I don't mind doing the washing up bit, but as a single guy I just let them dry of their own accord and put them away when they are 
Do you have a duster? |

I find that Fortnum & Mason provide a much better quality of duster (they also do Tea Towels as well)

"Why does Manchester think it's the North West?
Wasn't our idea"

"When I buy a PAIR of jeans
Why do I only get 1?"
Because trousers were originally two separate legs, laced together. A " trouser" was one leg. So you bought a pair of legs ; pair of trousers. The word became plural for all trousers / jeans / leggings ( in English )
In other languages, " trousers" are single ; eg French ; "un pantalon" not " les pantalons" |

"I always thought that Manchester was in the North west to i never was any good at geography though "
But we're in the North East, to get to Manchester we have to go south west of here.
If we go west (west of north east is north west) we end up nowhere near Manchester, we're in Carlisle. |
