Well said Sean. I have nothing to add, I just wanted to agree!

Have a quick gin to steady your nerves DM. The story is true, but it was a few days ago on the 16th. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/7254274.stm An inpatient from a secure psychiatric unit absconded from King's while being treated. Obviously, it's not good news and shouldn't have happened, but I really don't think there's any need to be alarmed. His picture has been published in the national press, if you see him use your common sense and don't approach him, but do call the police.

Happy Birthday PGC! Hope you have a lovely day and evening planned. xx Annaj

Oops. Cross posted. Thanks Sean. Jah, if he doesn't maybe he should've done it ;-)

Hey, what's with all the depressed commuter stuff? I'm trying to share my acheivement here! I'm hopeless at DIY and today I've done two coats of gloss, cleaned the brushes, only spilt a small amount of blue gloss on the floor and managed not to paint my cats.

No, Kel, classy is when I do the same thing with champagne! Just try not to be too funny around me when I'm drinking red wine. :-$

Had to resurrect this thread to say I painted my front door today! I've been meaning to do it for ages and now I'm really pleased with myself, but MrJ is out so I had no-one to share my satisfaction with. Mind you, it's come out a funny colour, nothing like the picture on the tin. Oh well.

Mightyroar A superb and highly scientific response! Nearly made me blow coffee out of my nose. :))

Definitely already converted, but preach away, it's funny! One of my least favourite jobs is seeing the children of parents who don't believe in vaccination, because they only want to use homeopathic cures and explaining that their poor, miserable child has mumps or measles and there is nothing I can do about it.

I feel I have to mention the "Ankor What?" bar in Siem Reap. It's pretty much backpaker law that you have to end up there after a day seeing the temples. The ceiling and walls are covered with graffiti by previous visitors. My favourite "Ankor Wat - more temples than you can shake a stick at"

Only 163 posts. A very modest 0.69 posts per day. I feel so inadequate. :-$

Me too. Turned quietly 30 something on the 7th. This is the dawning of the age of aquarius!

Yes, it is easy to mis-read a post, but in this case I didn't: My comment was based on the average number of units in a bottle of wine of any variety. If the wine you're referring to is Red Label Jamaican Wine then it's 13.7% ABV, so more like 10 units per bottle. My only mistake was assuming that it was shared between only two people, for which I apologise. The point of my post was to say that, in my opinion, your posts have been a bit condescending and judgemental in tone and I could see why PGC took them personally. Your response has done nothing to change my opinion.

LibraCarr, Although, I agree that name calling is not very nice (naughty PGC!) the tone of your posts was more than a little condescending. If the ceramics shop charge corkage and allow drinking, they clearly don't see it as a safety issue. Although I've never been in myself, my undrestanding is that you just paint ready made ceramics. If the kiln and turntable can only be seen from the side, perhaps they're for staff use only? As for you asking if cigarettes are really necessary, in one of your posts you've mentioned buying a daily bottle of wine. A bottle of wine is 9 units (assuming it's a modest 12% ABV) so even if you're sharing that daily bottle that's 31.5 units per week. The safe limit for men is 21 units a week. If we're going to have a conversation about abstinence and moderation, perhaps you should think about that.

Happy Birthday Jah! As I said the first time I met you, you definitely don't look your age. Have a great night :)-D

I remember naked Elvis! Could his departure explain the recent downturn in the CPTs fortunes? Can we get him back? Keef, start a petition immediately. Back on topic. I walk down Whateley whenever I go onto Lordship Lane and there are a couple of residents at the Lordship Lane end who are noisy and tend to hang out on the street, so I'm assuming that's who you're talking about, but I've never felt threatened. I can imagine it would be frustrating and difficult to live near, but I don't think public name calling is the answer. Mockney, loving your work. ;-)

Mamora Man, that's lovely. I'm working tomorrow night and I'd mauch rather be at home with MrJ.

This is nothing like my sixth form common room. That was full of girls making themselves sick and bitching. Fascinating reading though and on the whole a good clean fight, which is nice. Mockney, I'm pretty sure I agreed with everything you said, especially your last post. Now, everyone make a nice cup of tea and take a deep breath.

*sigh* Working.

Obviously, misuse of about to get off moves is an equally serious breach.

It was Twisting My Sobriety and was as cheerful as the title sounds. Strangely deep voice for a women. I never thought of it as flattering. More recently I have been told I look like Abbie from ER. I don't see it myself and, rather worryingly, when Mr J heard that he said "no you don't, I really fancy her!"

I've never seen Curb Your Enthusiasm, but that is a blatant breach of bus etiquette on her part. Everyone who uses buses knows that straightening up and sitting forward in your seat, rearranging your bags and maybe coughing are sure signs you're about to get off. If I had been there I'd have given you a supportive smile and her a disapproving glare. I hope that makes you feel better.

The only famous person I've ever been told I look like it Tanita Tikaram. Less often since the 80s finished and I learnt about eyebrow threading. Does that enlighten you at all?

Thanks!

Hi Does anyone know what time Dulwich Park is closing at the moment? I know it closes around sunset, but what time is that at the moment? - I haven't really been paying attention. Admin - wasn't sure if this should go here or in the wanted section. Sorry if I got it wrong!
