So there's a pro-Israel propaganda War Room in the now-famous Gillette Center, and more info on the Overlords of the sports business .

My local very small town supermarket station has had diesel at €2.31 all week , but I read that the situation is wilder elsewhere .

Normally the big supermarkets compete on price and are cheaper than small outlets, but tonight the very big Leclerc in Granville was at €2.39, while a car distributeur down the road was at 2.25 !

I adjust well to temperature changes upwards , but this cooler weather I'm finding horrible. Soon be time for thermal underwear !
