A CHRISTMAS CAROL This night 26 years ago was the lowest point in my adult life. After six months in Sweden I had no job, no prospects and about three euro in my pocket. I didn't want to be here any more. In truth, I didn't want to be anywhere any more. I was a total failure.

Ok people, I am looking to crowdsource some social media platform knowledge. Who, in Ireland or other EU country has seen an age verification demand, and on what platform.

As cod & ling, that used to populate British waters, migrate north to cooler waters, a large - and normally rare - type of octopus is being caught by fishermen in Devon and Cornwall in enormous numbers. Even tuna & shark. So what's going on? Climate change & overfishing news.sky.com/story/octopu...
