The longest fence in the world is in Australia. It is slightly longer than the distance between N.Y. & London. Called the "Dingo Fence" for keeping the wild dogs out of places where they shouldn't be.

Do U.K. websites use biscuits instead of cookies?

Biscuits and cookies are two different things. You put different things on biscuits like butter or jam. You don't do the same to cookies.

Never drank tea on a Centurion, only instant coffee with powdered coffee mate and sugar. What we drank most of was canned beer. That way you didn't have to worry about bad water and getting the poops.


At the time it was much cheaper to buy beer in Europe than it was to buy Coca cola.

There's a long definition on Wikipedia, too long to untangle here. For Brits we simplify it as a race of invaders (later settlers) from Scandinavia who descended on these shores in the early Mediaeval period.
