Actually, she isn't bad looking for her age. I would say she probably was a bit of a hottie in her time. Dumb as a brick then and now - or maybe not. I don't know her. But say what you want - she is better looking than Merkel!

Slightly OT again, sorry.
 

That couldn't be any worse that the service we received.

To start with the vicar was having a fag outside the main door when the guests were arriving. He said it'd last 25 minutes, but there'd be some humerous parts in there - it lasted just over 10, fortunately, and there was absolutely nothing funny. He started by saying it wasn't a Christening, as the parents didn't come to church, but a thanksgiving for the birth of the baby, and promptly forgot the child's name each and every time (maybe this was what he thought passed for humour?). He said that in previous times the women weren't allowed to go home from the hospital, but had to go to church first as they were 'unclean' - so mother's are inherently unclean? Did all mothers throughout time give birth in a hospital? (We had a home-birth, much better)

Part of the service was a passage about 'bringing the children to me, so I can lay my hands on them' - afterwards everyone said they were thinking about Jimmy Savile at this point.

Just dire. :nope:

It's refreshing to find someone that talks good about someone while everyone else is bashing them :up:

Agree 100%. People ought to keep their ageism and sexism to their selves.

God point :D

That was John XXIII. John Paul II became pope in 1978.

Popes can time travel, its one of the vaticans secrets.

Keep God out of this :)

But he is allpowerful and everywhere, so must be in this topic somewhere.

Ah, true!
As if Wojtyla would have been pope for such a long time :/\\!!
