  4. ok, I know I'm in trouble when I shout "timber" I hear the reply "Allahu Akbar" when felling
  5. ok mr pedant. as Rick from the young ones would say, "most metaphors don't stand up to close scrutiny" Since 2000, there have been seven deaths per year in the UK due to terrorism - which, according to research from BuzzFeed, means you're more likely to be killed by dogs (18 deaths per year), hot water (100 deaths per year) or using your phone while driving (2,920 deaths per year).
  6. More chance of a widow maker falling on you. Carry on as normal I say
