I spoke to Dace last night. Much <3 to him.

He was sitting or lying in an empty bath for some reason.

Can't remember much of the conversation, but we all know Dace is Ace when Drunk.

Why not just install them in London. Theres more wind generated there in a few square miles around Westminster than there is in the rest of the British Isles.

By the time of the next Olympics, doctors predict that three out of four people in the country will have a body mass index of more than 25, the benchmark of corpulence.
