@greedydlovato@amcalabrese12 Czech Republic hasn't changed to Czechia its called Czech Republic in English or Česká republika in Czech. Thats what they have printed on their passports. Czechia was introduced by a marketing team to help foreigners because it's easier to say and many Czechs despise it.
@London_W4 I once won a goldfish in a plastic bag at our local village fete when I was a boy by throwing a plastic ring over a skittle. I put it in the pond in the garden and it grew to like a foot long.
@mdf_michael@aswren 2500 deaths over 5 years is absolutely within the normal range for any random group of 32,000 people in the 1890s.
UK death rate was 20 per 1000 annually, so (32 x 20 x 5) = 3200 deaths. An indentured laborer from India had less chance of dying than any random Brit in England.
@NYSportsFan34@michaelbd Yes, many foreigners insist on using Czechia in the misguided thinking that they're being "inclusive" or something. It was adopted to make things easier for foreigners not for any cultural reasons. Ironically they're now using a name that many Czechs actively dislike.
@NYSportsFan34@michaelbd We don’t call the Czech Republic Czechia. We call it Czech Republic in English. The literal translation of the name in Czech - Česká Republika. That’s what they print on their passports. Czechia is just a shortened version.
@Darren_hk_@thegabriel72 If he wasn’t around it would never have been on the beach. He literally dragged it onto the beach by the hook in its mouth while shark fishing.
@VinnieSull1van@BygoneBritain@PubHistoryTours Going to play football on a Sunday in my XR3i, stopping in the pub on the way home for a Sunday roast and a pint, back home for Last of the Summer Wine and Bullseye.
Natural England wants to remove 90% of Dartmoor’s ponies.
Our Exmoor ponies are next. These animals have been here for thousands of years.
A government quango, destroying the countryside and its heritage.
@tigerx_xmilk@Dog__Dog0 Welsh hounds are a pack-living breed. They are kept in packs of 40-plus. They need lots of socialization and exercise, several hours of free-running every day (ie. NOT on a leash). You do not know what you are talking about.
