I was looking for UK census information from 1801 for my research paper.

I found this instead:

When the University failed to provide me with lifeguarding shifts two weeks in a row, I was forced to look elsewhere for very temporary employment. Happily for me, (and thanks to God) I managed to reconnect with my old roofing buds for a few days and had the privilege to jump ( Read more... )
