The Mirror reported there appears to be 10 fish and chip shops in the Uxbridge area.

The plea raised eyebrows on the social media network. Why was a politician... Читать дальше...

Close-up, People, Eating, Easter egg, Hands

An NHS doctor has warned keen Easter celebrants to avoid eating an Easter egg in one go this weekend (I feel attacked). 

Dr. Kelso, a medical director at the NHS Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board, said when interviewed for the board’s blog that we should “resist the urge to eat a whole egg in one go.”

“At a time like this when we are seeing significant increases in cases of obesity and Type 2 diabetes, as well as tooth decay... Читать дальше...

Woof — it’s been a long week.

If you feel like you’ve been working like a dog, let us offer you the internet equivalent of a big pile of catnip: hilarious tweets about pets.

We Shih Tzu not.

Each week at HuffPost, we scour Twitter X (yes, Elon Musk is apparently fur real) to find the funniest posts about our furballs being complete goofballs. They’re sure to make you howl.

(And if you want more, no need to beg ― you can check out last week’s batch right here.)

Kids may say the darndest things, but parentstweet about them in the funniest ways. Although Twitter has rebranded to X, the humour lives on.

Nothing riles people on the internet up like an avocado.

Whether you’re a young person who dares to purchase it on toast instead of putting that £8 towards an impossibly unaffordable home, or Meghan Markle, whose enjoyment of the fruit supposedly amounted to “fuelling drought and murder,” I almost wish it didn’t exist sometimes. 

Turns out that reality was closer than I thought. In a recent TikTok, fun fact curator That’s Pretty Cool said “we think [avocados] should have gone extinct.” 

Science backs the fact... Читать дальше...

A few of the famous MPs stepping down at the next general election

Robert Halfon has become the latest MP elected as a Conservative to announce they are stepping down from the Commons.

The minister joins the growing ranks of Tories who will not stand when the country next goes to the polls.

While it may feel like many Tory MPs have already left – triggering plenty of by-elections – dozens more are not looking for another term in parliament, including former PM Theresa May, ex-chancellor... Читать дальше...

A lot of us might know that hi-fi stands for high fidelity. So it follows that maybe Wi-Fi stands for wireless fidelity... right? 

On Reddit this week, there was a story combining two of the biggest things couples often argue over: money and chores.

Scrambled eggs are one of those things, like an omelette, that’s hard to ruin but surprisingly tricky to perfect.

Choose your plane seat wisely, even on a short flight. 

Travellers understandably spend more time preparing for long-haul air travel than they do for one- or two-hour flights. But that doesn’t mean they’ve got it all figured out when it comes to those shorter plane voyages.  

With that in mind, HuffPost asked travel experts to share the common mistakes travellers make on short flights, as well as their advice for avoiding these errors. From forgetting crucial supplies to being unprepared for an often-smaller aircraft... Читать дальше...

Jennifer Lopez

It’s fair to say that Jennifer Lopez was fancying herself as a serious act-or back in the late 90s.

Back in 1998, the chart-topping singer and star of films like Maid In Manhattan, The Wedding Planner and Marry Me was asked for her thoughts on some of her peers in the acting industry by Movieline – and it’s safe to say that she pulled no punches.
