I had a lump on the side of my neck when I was a child! It wasn't a lymph node though, but still not harmful. It was about the size of one of those lumps you get when you bash your forehead really hard. I was not worried... but that's because at that age I was more concerned with wondering if my toys were going to come alive when I left the room. The doctors said it wasn't anything bad and I had surgery to remove it; I was little at the time but they said it was basically a bunch of ghost cells (I remember it because I thought ghost cells sounded cool) that were harmless but...lumpy.

So basically it's going to be ok even if my thing was different from yours. But you can now be a member of the lumpy neck club which is pretty exclusive. We have no membership fee and do no activities.

I can see both sides really. I'm angry with the PLP, I'm angry with Corbyn. But I understand the motivations of both.

Having read a lot about him and his ideologies, and those of Tony Benn, he basically bleeds democracy, and this vote of no confidence in his view doesn't negate the will of the 250k voters who voted him in last year. If it goes to leadership election, it will be down to the will of the people again. They very well may have changed their minds since they last voted, but at least the leadership change will be at the will of the people, which is what he wants. If he resigns, there will be no leadership election and someone will just be installed.

Whether the labour party members represent all labour party voters is up for debate, but right now that's the channel being used.

Also the PLP seem to be crapping themselves about Chilcot.

This sounds like a spy greeting, are you sure they weren't spies trying to drop off a package?

For London Toasties who are angry about the resignations and anti-Corbyn stuff, there is a pro-Corbyn event/protest this evening at 6pm in Parliament Square.

My partner and I will be going if you don't want to go on your own. We are quite nice. https://www.facebook.com/events/1754368201514480/...

I'm sure you've found this already but just in case:

"If either of your parents was an Irish citizen who was born in Ireland, then you are automatically an Irish citizen, irrespective of your place of birth. If you are an Irish citizen, you can apply for an Irish passport. You do not need an Irish passport in order to be an Irish citizen but having an Irish passport is evidence that you are an Irish citizen. "
OR
"If you were born outside Ireland to an Irish citizen who was himself or herself born outside Ireland, then you are entitled to become an Irish citizen. ... However before you can claim Irish citizenship, you must have your birth registered in the Foreign Births Register, which is maintained by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade"

From here: http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/moving_count...

(I've been looking it up myself for any future kids of mine as I'm Irish by descent)

Ugh yes they (although really all MPs) are annoying me at the moment. Get your shit together and stop blaming all your problems on Corbyn you whiny babies.

I very unromantically suggested getting married this morning - I am Irish by descent like your boyfriend, and my boyfriend is English, I want to give him options!

My dismay at the decision was firmly cemented this morning when Trump started praising it. That's how you know it's not a good idea! This man is a litmus test for bad ideas!

Right!? I am just baffled by this!

Being grateful to people shows that they are valued and appreciated, people like to feel valued and appreciated!

That is so strange but also kind of cool looking! Is it an extreme example of rose proliferation or just a super weird mutation?

Gif jinx!

I was very confused about Lacroix being favoured by health conscious budget-wise mums, as my only point of reference is Ab Fab. But it seems like Ab Fab Lacroix is designer Christiane Lacroix, and trendy LaCroix is pronounced La-croy and is fizzy water.

But maybe they should partner up.
