Mary Rand, the first British woman to win an Olympic gold medal in athletics, has died at the age of 86.

Rand secured the long jump title at the Tokyo Games in 1964, also winning silver in the inaugural women's pentathlon and bronze in the 4x100m relay.

That meant she also became the first British woman to win gold, silver and bronze at a single Olympic Games.

If you are buried when you die, and in a hundred years they dig up your bones. The sciatic notch and brow furrows can only determine your biological sex.

I was able to post once, maybe even twice. Not sure if my second post went through or if I broke it.

I have seen your strategic post but think I broke it with my reply

And now it's working, and quickly.

It may not be dead yet, but i think something there is in its death throws...

And now I managed to connect, but, it was probably less than 5s from time-out, at each stage.

I'm reading fun things.

Gov: You all need digital IDs!
Citizen: Why? I have a passport and driver's license.
Gov: Your passport and/or driver's license isn't secure enough anymore for your ID.
Citizen: Okay, so how do I get the digital ID?
Gov: You'll just have to identify yourself with your passport or driver's license...
😉

And in most cases, you only need a copy of your birth certificate to get a passport.

And you can buy a copy from the registry office where the birth was recorded.
And to get that copy, you only need a reasonable excuse for needing the copy.
It doesn't need to be 'you'.
