Partly because of the costly packaging, the dehydrated chips cost about 15% more than regular chips. Pringle's taste and look much like real potato chips, but they are not as crisp...
Dislocated Neck. Turning such fantasies into real history had to wait until Antonia had finished secondary school at the rather precocious age of 15, spent two years dabbling at novel writing and then read history at Oxford. After her marriage at 23-in a replica of Mary Stuart's first bridal headdress -she warmed up with some children's books and A History of Toys...

The telescope can view the sun in one of 10,000 different wavelengths of ultra-violet light and can aim at a single point, take a picture of the entire sun, or scan an area only 1/15 the size of the sun's visible disc. Where earlier OSO satellites were able to take only one picture...
