The real (modern) london bridge is mostly bus lane and pedestrian traffic. 2x bus lanes, 2x wide pavements, and 2x car lanes (probably mostly taxis). I'd guess - from when i used to regularly use it 10-15 years ago, the pavements move the most people by a decent margin , especially at rush hour. I always thought they should close one of the bus lanes at rush hour to give to pedestrians.

It's not clear which bridge they're trying to draw though, normally people depict tower bridge which is way narrower. I think just 1 mixed lane in each direction - that is often a log jam of buses and cars - still fairly decent width pavements though, but no where near the rush hour (pedestrian) traffic of London bridge. Thats just because its a worse location.

Of course the nursery rhyme refers to the old medieval london bridge that was covered with houses and shops and stuff. Of corse in those days people went to Southwark for different reasons.

Maybe they're depicting the dartford crossing?

"you're brain dead, you've got aalmost as much lead as a motherfuckin bullet in ya head."

I doubt it's the main cause, widespread cultural phenomena are normally mostly generated by social interactions (words) and reinforcement, and demagogues (or so they often over-claim).

Poison like that will impact a fairly small proportion and takes a long time to impact and spread. Seems unlikey to be anything major. Besides which many more sources of lead poisoning from paint and leaded petrol, and water pipes and stuff - not specifiic to US and not specific to guns.

Aka chrolling for clickbate.

So I turned the job over to a friend of mine . . .

Your heritage at that (extremely long span of ) time might be a small shrew/rat/squirrel like creature that scuttled around at the time of large dinosaurs. Probably hiding from the the small to medium sized dinos. Too small to be of note to the large ones. Adaptable enough to survive the mass extinction - maybe small, agile, mobile, omnivorous and so on.

This is a contender for an early primate - maybe - I think the fossil record is a lot less complete and harder to interpret for smaller creatures. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purgatorius

Of course the dinos changed a lot over that time - as would the mammals. I think Purgatorius is from near the K-T extinction.

There were other larger mammmals around but probably none much bigger than a wolf / lynx/ capybara type thing. I think those types are considered less likely to have evolved into primates and also some might have evolved and re-evolved into something else many millions of years before the K-T extinction.

I hear Versailles is ok for tourists.

If >1 special character is not allowed the last check should be failed . The second check is literally satisfied even if there are 2+ specials.

I'd not be using that bank.

spent money fighting . . ?

why doesn't he spend money promotiong awareness of his policies? /s

Britain left of centre ? . . . these are blairites, "labour" in name only , they literally propped up the second homes buy to let market through the 2000s. and they'd gladly privatise every public service we have left if they can. I've already heard shit like "individualised healthcare" being mentioned in their "think tanks".

They're probably not worse than the tories, and they probably will fuck it up less, that's about all you can hope for them.

They aren't going to tackle anything fundamental like bank regulation, promoting domestic investment, industrial strategy or developing public services.

I hope France gets a lot better.

Call the Sales/new accounts line and see how long it takes them to pick up.
