Until 15 years ago, the British loved eccentrics - which was one of the reasons I loved and admired the British. Unfortunately they have changed...

Some of the other ways life has changed, which are weird:

• salt used to be from the sea - now it is filled with chemicals that harm us, so, to be careful it means we must use salt taken from the tallest mountain in the world - the Himalayas (actually, I do not recall the details, but I think the tallest is actually a mountain deep in the ocean...

• I had always planned on having myself cremated....now...I'm thinking of donating my body to MacDonalds for them to make hamburgers....

..and so it goes :))
