Meh. Hoopers is so near me but I'll be away then.

Haha, men with ven. I saw superhans today in oxford circus.

formula 1 is where its at!

this thread's hilarious from start to finish

congratulations!

I want to buy one as a souvenir! If lots of people do that it'll keep money in the local economy...

Ganapati is wonderful!

Very glad to hear Franks Campari bar isn't closing till 30th as I haven't been yet but I too thought it closed last week.

There's an African place on the corner on Bellenden Rd, has it closed down? I've never seen it open yet.

I was there a couple of weeks ago and I went to a great seafood place on the beach, also check out the sand sculptures as you walk along. Awesome city! Be careful on Las Ramblas though!

wow, so amelie

afraid not sorry- but i do have some photos from the wild...will upload tomorrow (today)

I was really hoping he'd guess them all wrong.

i love orchids, especially bee orchids

Ok thanks for your help guys...although its not exactly a clear consensus...!

FYI been doing some research and its

Annual Rail Season Ticket (DMK/PR or ED to London Z1/2): 576

Annual Buscard (all London):552

Annual Travelcard (all London Z12): 1032

Never knew the thing about rail 1/3 off either, given that I've got a Young Persons railcard too is that 2/3 off?!

+ as much as I'm loving bigbadwolf's trainsurfing suggestion, I'm thinking that with the majority of the trains arriving to platform 15 and 16 at London Bridge I wouldn't be so well placed to perform a diving manoevre over the barriers upon arrival...

Good luck ojm!

Please do move this if I've put it in the wrong place. I admit its possibly the most boring thread ever.

Basically my Z123 travelcard runs out tomorrow (I used to live in Z3 near an underground) and I've recently moved here (well technically SE5). I work in London Bridge and have been commuting by train (from PR/ED/DMK), tried the bus but it was a bit torturous, thought about cycling but I'm a bit of a danger and I don't have a bike. What I've loved about having a travelcard is that going across London for sociable stuff doesn't cost anymore and even if it means paying more I'm scared of losing that luxury. However I'm also quite skint at the moment, what with moving and all.

So my options seem to be:

1. Buy a Z12 travelcard and be poor but free

2. Buy a railcard? - don't know about these- and be slightly more restricted

3. Buy a bus card and deal with the time wasted in traffic jams

4. Sort out a bike asap

5. ???

Can the collective EDF wisdom help me come to a solution?

I just went through a similar thing- the estate agent told me the landlord was on holiday since June and they couldn't get hold of him to agree its release (a barefaced lie; he'd been round to my flat and agreed to return my deposit). She refused to deal with the landlord directly and stopped answering any of my calls. Protection schmeme. Fortunately for me, my Dad's a solicitor so eventually I got him to give them a ring (strictly as a legal representative acting on my behalf) and start mentioning small claims courts and legal proceedings and the like, and suddenly my check is in the post....

Whoa, seriously shocking indeed!

How old are you all? I lurk and am quite fascinated

I want to see Shifty has anyone seen it?

ooh i love this thread
