acute Posted June 17, 2019 Author #1384 Share Posted June 17, 2019 In 1968, 'Smile' were a rock band comprised of Brian May, Roger Taylor, and Tim Staffell. When Staffell left the band in 1970 (before the formation of Queen) Taylor turned down the chance to become drummer for Genesis, which led to Phil Collins joining instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Commander Travis Posted November 8, 2019 #1387 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The word "ye" was never pronunciated as "ye", as in "ye old tea shoppe". The "y" is the Old English letter "thorn". It is read as "TH." Thus, "ye" is simply pronounced as "the". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acute Posted November 30, 2019 Author #1390 Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) Lincolnshire is an English county that borders Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Rutland, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire, the East Riding of Yorkshire, and Northamptonshire. The boundary with Northamptonshire is just 19 metres (or about 20 yards) long, making it England's shortest county boundary.
