A BOY WORE SKIRT TO SCHOOL AFTER SHORTS WERE BANNED. (PHOTO).

A 15-year-old boy who wore a skirt to school because the rules said he wasn't allowed to wear shorts has forced teachers to make a U-turn, with his proud parents hailing him a 'legend'. Joe Stratton's protest at Stafford School in Caterham, Surrey is thought to have seen an alteration to uniform policy that will allow shorts to be worn in hot weather outside of the summer term. Joe returned to school on Tuesday in the shorts from his summer uniform but was told they were only for the summer term, according to his mum. Instead, the teenager was informed that the uniform policy at the school meant he had the choice of either trousers or a skirt. The Year 11 pupil opted for the latter and wore a skirt to school on Wednesday and Thursday to beat the summer heatwave.  He also planned to do so, if needed, 'every day that he felt too hot to wear trousers', his mum, Jo Suleyman, said. 'He said most of his teachers either didn't notice and didn't say anything

The aggrieved husband, Mr. Poulinus Vembu, was said to have seen his younger brother and his wife departing the hotel the morning after they spent a night together.

NEYMAR BEATS PELE’S RECORD TO BECOME BRAZIL’S ALL-TIME TOP SCORER. (PHOTO).

Neymar beats Pele’s record to become Brazil’s all-time top scorer Neymar surpassed Pele as Brazil’s all-time top scorer with two second-half goals in a 5-1 win over Bolivia in South America’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers on Friday. The 31-year-old striker went into the game level with Pele on 77 goals and had a golden opportunity to break the record in the 17th minute when Brazil were awarded a penalty. But he looked distraught after his soft spot-kick was easily saved by Bolivia keeper Guillermo Viscarra to keep the scores goalless. Seven minutes later, Brazil got in front when Rodrygo reacted quickly to slot home after a shot from Raphinha was parried out by Viscarra. Brazil doubled their lead just after the break when Raphinha cut in from the left and his low shot took a slight deflection as it flew into the bottom corner. Neymar had a hand in Brazil’s third, with a clever chipped pass that was flicked on by Bruno Guimaraes into the path of Rodrygo who confidently drilled home. Then ca

If you want to stay rich, stay stingy — Akon He said: “If you want to stay rich, stay stingy. I’m the stingiest man on the planet. Whatever you do, do not own a [private] jet. Bro, owning a jet is spending at least 2-3 million dollars a year just for upkeep [maintenance]. You spend more on the maintenance than the actual jet cost. This is the advice I give everybody. The money that you have now has to last you a lifetime. When you reason it that way, you are going to be very prudent.”
