I'm OK with Chrome - but I have noticed all my sub-folders in Photobucket have disappeared?

You are correct Catfan. However, if Melissa insures the car with one or two named additional older/experienced drivers this can reduce the insurance premium. If the car is going to be a low annual mileage there are some policies available where the insurer fits a 'black box' which measures driving habits (speeds, time of day used etc) and these may be attractive to some younger drivers. Insofar as choosing a car, the Ford KA is not a bad car - but there are bad KA's, same applies for all cars really. Insurers prefer new drivers to buy sedate 1,000cc cars (Fiesta, Corsa, Polo etc).

Why do they call this a 'near miss'? Surely it was a 'miss' or a 'near hit'

Correct, it is a Mk1 Cortina, the first Cortina's were the 'Consul Cortina' and the front grill did not encompass the front indicators. Compo's Cortina is a facelift known as an airflow Cortina that had many improvements including the airflow heater system, the front indicators are within the grille.

The Liechtenstein national anthem sounds familiar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWmDbMbDZKk

But officials from the EU will probably come and put the fire out! The EU now want to reduce/stop landfill of organic waste - does this mean no more burials?

The 'National Anthem' is the music alone, the words were penned much later.

For what its worth, the hand is not one image, they are two separate images. Cannot see the point though. Do the upper fingers belong to the thumb?

Today is indeed a day for reflection and to give thanks to those who fought in WW2 and especially those who were involved in the D-Day invasion including all the support forces that stayed in the UK. Respect to all who were involved and especially to those who fell in action.

There is no single problem and single simple answer but, when people move into a care home they should be 'cared for'. The clue is in the name. Personally, I do not want to be a burden on my son & daughter but a certainly do not want to go into a 'God's waiting room'. I know old folk can become difficult and cantankerous but if a care worker cannot deal with patients with dignity and respect they should not be in the job at all.
