I wonder if the discovery of this skeleton might persuade the Dean of London to re-appraise his decision on the locket found with the two Tower of London skeletons, believed to be the nephews of Richard III. It would be most interesting if it were possible to compare the DNAs.

Staff at Parking Eye are busily preparing to send the present Queen two photos: one of the bones leaving the site with the time and date stamp, and one of a battlefield portrayal painting with "22nd August 1485" and a made-up time written on it in felt-tip.

Thats why your slave box costs so much..0

The poor man can't even use disability as an exemption from the parking fee. http://tompride.wordpress.com/2013/02/04/atos-declare-richard-iii-fit-for-work/
Does Reasonable Adjustment extend to a 500 year overstay?0
