It's Earl Grey, named after Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl Grey. I don't think a colour can be an Earl.

The person dressed in a giant poppy costume who was jumping side to side and waving their arms at me as I entered the supermarket was pretty funny and made me smile, so I'll have more of that type of poppy mania please.

Some people get weirdly militant about wearing them and decorating with them in Facebook posts, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone behave like that on person.

I'd never signed a credit or debit card in my life until I travelled to the US last year, and then I only did it because I'd heard stories of places confiscating cards if they weren't signed. Don't know how true they are now but I wasn't risking it.

All I know is that when I order locusts and get a stowaway cricket with them is that it drives me mad in the evening when it starts chirping

They only really chirp in the evening or at night

If the council maintained the road markings like they are supposed to then companies meeting their obligations to repaint markings would never make the news. It only gets picked up on when the original marking is basically non existent anyway.
