"Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich has faced delays in renewing his UK visa, the BBC understands.The Russian billionaire did not attend Saturday's FA Cup final. A source close to the 51-year-old suggested he was in the process of renewing his visa, and said it was taking a little longer than usual. [...] Reports suggest his investor visa expired three weeks ago. The delay comes amid increased diplomatic tensions between London and Moscow after the poisoning of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal in Salisbury".

It's no Monkey Christ - I doubt we'll see the likes of THAT again - but it's a strong effort, making a 16th century artwork more like something out of the Beano

Crazy to think we haven’t even explored the full extent of our own planet yet or the full functionality of the human brain! But at least we now know Uranus smells like Eggs lol
