Re:All British adults to require a digital ID 'Brit Card' on Friday September 26, 2025 @02:51AM (#45383527)
Absolutely, calling it a ‘Brit’ card will make it wildly unpopular in certain areas let alone the headaches in terms of the common travel area and the Good Friday agreement.

Indeed VB for dos had a UI designer with buttons, forms, dialogue boxes etc.
I visited Notre Dame the first time I was in Paris, stood in the queue, climbed the stairs and took the photos everyone takes and have positive associations of the trip. The age, location and the view all help make nice memories that I guess many visitors feel. Victor Hugo & Disney probably add to that for others.

Cool, did not know that as I am in Ireland and we have different dates but as a general piece of advice for those in their 40’s I would recommend making the effort to keep in touch with your parents.

My take on this is that if your religion doesn’t make you do anything you’d be ashamed of if there was no God then there is no harm. Sometimes the rights and rituals help provide context for important life events regardless of any faith you might lack.
