I was amazed that when I lived in the UK the main official ID I needed to proof my identity was a utility bill with name and address on it

[Brian]

That’s hi tech compared to here we just turn up say our name and address they look it up on a book put a tick next to your name and your good to go
If you were so inclined you could hit up multiple polling stations

@ARNC death to the ketchup users.

and how do you two feel about Catsup?

I always assumed this was the old name of Ketchup. There’s a difference?

[goosehd]

@neph93 It’s the same thing and something people used to argue about with the spelling. Which one is correct ketchup or catsup? Probably one of the murica things…

in any case, all of these spellings are anglicizations of the name of a Chinese sauce that sounded something like ke-tsiup. Or so I've been told.
