Who did you last Google and why?

I just googled former PM Harold Wilson, to check it was he who said in the 60's that 'A week in politics is a long time', and this has certainly been a long week. Apparently he wasn't the first politician to refer to major events occurring in short time spans in politics, as Joseph Chamberlain said in 1886 that ‘In politics, there is no use in looking beyond the next fortnight.’

The world moves quicker in 2016 and Boris has had enough after just a few days thinking about being a contender for the top job. Interesting times indeed!

Bruce Dobson as I recently bought one of his paintings because I liked it didn't know anything about him

Since I was supposed to be having a shower 30 mins ago, but just thought I'd look on here... Yes maggie

The man I'm going out on a first date with on Saturday

I googled Whistler's Mother; I belong to an art discussion group and after the mid-session interval (with copious tea and cake) we have a sort of "show & tell" of art-ish sort of things, and I wanted to know stuff about her because of the portrait he did of her as my contribution next meeting.
I also had a search for "Scolari", who's name has come up again re the England manager's job ... no, FA, no, is my view.

Bit like Gransnet then, Badenkate.

The problem is that Google can take over because one piece of information leads to another. ... Then you realise an hour's gone

schnakie. That made me laugh. Sorry, probably wasn't meant to be funny.

I don't google people very often so I can't remember that but the last thing that I googled was Braga funicular railway. I get Atlas Obscura on my facebook feed which has lots of interesting random things and they had an article on an American funicular and someone made a comment to say that there was still a water powered one at Braga so I had a look at it and then one at Montmatre.

I Googled two of my old boyfriends, only to find both dead!! I am only 63 and one of them was younger than me!

I googled the Wimbledon schedule, which for some reason reminded me of Freddie and the Dreamers, so googled them! I went out with one of them for a short time when I was 16/17
Back to Wimbledon.

I have just Googled myself and I don't exist! ?

i don't google - i bing!!
but, having said that, i think the last person i "binged" was an actor i saw on midsomer murders ............ knew his face so i had to wait until the credits came up to find his name. but now his name eludes me again!

Jeff Lynne, to find out how old he is

I just googled ground elder as a friend said I have some in my garden, luckily I have proved him wrong. ?

Stansgran take gloves and hat ...safari tours often set off early morning and it is freezing!!!

Twiggy, to see how old she was.

As the question was who and not what. I googled Thersa May. I wanted to find out a bit more about her and her experience. Like many I'm Google all the time. The last thing I googled was how to sterilise dishcloth by boiling. Such an exciting life!

Following Sarah Vine's leaked email, I just googled her because I remember disliking her because of I was really angry about an article she wrote. I felt really strongly about it but I couldn't remember what it was about! Googling didn't help because it mostly returned the email articles.

I was looking for a young, classical guitarist from our area who won Bbc Young Musician s few years ago. Was wondering how he was doing now......very well indeed as it turns out. Brilliant young man.

Just googled Andrea Leadsom to show DH her photo because he couldn't remember who she was

A wee glimpse at the convoluted goings on in Maybe Towers here. Before Cyndi/Toyah, it was Kelsey Grammer, because we'd read an interview with him in which he mentioned that his sister was murdered by two serial killers. Ah, said I a couple of days later, I've just remembered that this was featured in that film about the woman trapped in her house because of agoraphobia and solving the murders.

Turned out it wasn't. It was Peter Lorre's daughter who was abducted by the serial killers named in the film.

Our search and subsequent links went:

It passes the time

Ok I did a what instead of a who so I have just googled my SIL Dr Jonathan Power University of Chester- WOW he's gone up in my estimation I only ever see him glued to PlayStation or the Football.
