I agree, we are English and the language is English so stop using American words and pronunciation. I heard on the radio that a man gets laughed by his children for saying zed instead of zee.

Yeah, I have finally turned into my parents, something I swore I would never do lol

This is, to be fair, probably more interesting than a typical local non-story, however I'm posting it here anyway... includes a nice photo of all the toys...

"Peterborough couple donate more than 100 cuddly toys won over 40 years"

"Man named ‘number one buyer of Quavers crisps’ at local shop for second year running"
This is the big challenge that Lee Wakefield, from Dalston, east London, faced at the beginning of 2022.

After being crowned the ‘number one buyer of Quavers Crisps’ in his Sainsbury’s, all he wanted to do was retain the title.

I hope they have given you some recognition of that. Possibly a tin of cat food?
