There was a time when hearing the letterbox clatter could genuinely make your day. You might be halfway through breakfast, watching television or getting ready to leave the house when that familiar sound came from the front door. Someone had been to the post, and there was always a small possibility that something interesting had arrived. Perhaps it was a letter from a friend, a magazine you'd been waiting for, […]

Her departure follows intense scrutiny over her claim to be a lawyer despite failing to pass the bar exam. A senior White House official confirmed on Friday that she was out of her job, after US President Donald Trump previously suggested she should reconsider her role. An investigation is under […]
There were few events in a British school calendar quite as exciting, terrifying and socially complicated as the school disco.
