Some studies even found that Brexit was caused by low levels of education… no comment. What we all want to know is what parts of the country have…
PDA is never okay… Whether it’s an on-screen kiss or just two celebs smooching on the red carpet, watching anyone kiss can be quite awkward, to say the least.

Hundreds of people across the globe spend thousands and thousands of dollars and pounds modifying the body we were blessed with – some in the most outrageous ways too (we’ve all seenJocelyn Wildenstein aka Catwoman). On the other hand, the majority of people accept it with open arms and feel lucky enough to have a fully functioning body that carries us through decades of life.
