Joanna Trollope, writer of pot boiling family (aga) sagas, is not a trollop.

Distant relative, & author of the Barchester Chronicles, Anthony Trollope, was, in his day, on the other hand, a notorious trollop.

Selfridges used to do exactly that.

The Mitsubishi Starion was meant to be called Stallion but it got lost in the translation.

In the UK, it is legal to walk a horse to water but illegal to make it drink.

True story.

Monkeys are the only other creature who legally have a right to vote in this country.

There are highly trained monkeys in our special forces, although it is not widely publicised.
