Tommy, does 70+ mean this prog is still on tv or just that it ran on for a while past the 70s?

Bernie, my thinking was that the 22/9/21 was National Ice Cream Day & National White Chocolate Day + National Car Free Day. All reasons to be Happy Days. :D

That's the one Bee.

English city loses its river, initially

Preston is the city and it loses the R, which is the initial letter of Ribble, its river.
