  1. I did see a group of deaf students in the EDT a few weeks back, I have to say they were all really beautiful/handsome. Did your mugging have a touch of the Beverley Hills 90210 meets that hispanic bird off Sesame St meets Crimewatch about it?
  2. Here you go, I'll bring some to a forum drink if you like. Gwd knows what rates 10!! http://www.chilliworld.com/SP6.asp?p_id=255 this one apparently http://www.chilliworld.com/SP6.asp?p_id=279
  3. Someone's created a 'sauce' which is basically pure capsicum, or 16,000,000 scoville units. Apparently it's not fit for human consumption which rather begs Why?. Yed D_C, the Dorset Naga, a strain accidentally created from some indian nagas on our own fair isle.
  4. Can't we just lounge it, it's very silly. "mockney, statistically most UK migrants head to Australia, NZ, the USA and Canada on a permanant(sic) basis. Migrating between EU nation states (as many Polish people have done recently) does not constitute emigration in my book." Well, if all arguments are settled from the definitions in your book, then it's no wonder you're always right. As it happens Spain is second to Australia (900k to 1.3M, US & Canada about 600K each) but a good chuck of that is historic emigration; Australia's controls are much tighter now, so Spain is very much number one destination in this day and age.
  5. Now Europe's an old lady on her death bed? Wow. Why don't you just push the damn button and be done with it, the next big pandemic is surely just around the corner, it's long overdue. Another 50% death rate in Britain should help to share the wealth again...it did last time AND it was the midwife of people power.
  6. Of course the largest exodus from this country is to Spain, and I know from very well how they feel about the bloody immigrants there! Apparently they have no desire to learn the local language, they all hang around together in ghettos with their own music, their own culture and entertainment, they have no sensitivity for the culture and mores of the natives and they annoy everyone with their disgusting eating and drinking habits. Weird.
  7. twinkle: You're all mad, it's obvious it's a hedge chorus: Erm, it's walking with a waddle, it has elongated mouth parts and emits quacks, hedges it ain't I should know I once fell in one. twinkle: Cor Blimey you're stupid if you're falling in hedges, you've just reinforced my point, I'm right, I'm right, everyone else is wrong. chorus:*sigh* Christ. If I wanted conversations like this I'd phone my dad!!!! For the record Britain was at it's Zenith around the 1840's when it sat on it's laurels and failed to enjoy the creativity and investment it had done in the previous 40 years. The likes of Germany and France were in the ascendancy then, though thanks to our having an industrial head start, a kleptoparasitic foreign policy, and making an absolute killing from foisting opium on the Chinese (at one point providing one third of the entire British government's income) we kept up the pretences of primacy until the first world war. I wouldn't like to have been a middle class londoner then, and I can guarantee you that had you been a working class londoner then, you'd be dead by now!! *edited to clarify now meaning your age, not now meaning 2008, which should really go without saying.....get's coat* :-$
  8. Timtim, I worked out it's healthier, nicer and often quicker to walk to Liverpool St from London Bridge.
  9. Fitzrovia. Not as bad as it sounds, 5 minutes walk to Denmark Hill, 10 minutes to Victoria, 10 minutes to Warren St. Early enough to avoid the sardines (though I wouldn't describe it as pleasant as such). Home early enough for it to actually be fairly pleasant. Better than my old Camden commute anyway. City was good though. Train to London Bridge, then the walk across it to lift your spirits.
  10. "It doesn't make it better or worse than a 'normal' market." That's rather the point. There's a value judgement going on regards what NCRM is. It's a market that caters for a local, err...market in a sort of traders trying to earn a bit of money shocker type fashion. I for one desperately miss the dynamite stalls in the Yukon in the late 1890s, there was a 'real' market for real people!!! But you know, times move on.
  11. It's like a broken record isn't it. Actually it's more like a skipping CD in its shrill staccato regularity, but of course CDs are only for the post 1940s generation and exclusive to those Surbiton types who wrap themselves in cotton wool.
  12. Well, they do sell them, the question is, where do they buy them!
  13. Mmmmmmmm one of my favourites. They must have been available here for a while as it's one of my brother's signature dishes. I'm often greeted with a plateful, exactly as described above, when we pop over to his. I shall enquire as to his source, it cooould be Borough Market, not sure. *edited as unsure why I deified my brother with capitalisation*
  14. Great first post jimmy two times, great first post.
  15. As it happens a very strange man has just favourited one of my photos on flickr. If it was a photo of a mates child, I might be inclined to block a stranger, but I have no titillating photos of children, and of course it might just be a broody girl or just someone who liked the photo (I uesd to have a lovely photo of mrs mockney's niece on there, ut her mum got very antsy about it, mostly in case her estranged father found it and used it as some sort of ammunition) Aaaanyway, this photo is of a hoover. chap in question clearly derives some sort of fetishistic pleasure out of it. Like i say, if it was a photo of child I'd definitely block this chap, but it's a hoover, does that make my photo hoover porn?! PHWOAR A Catalogue of his obsession if you dare (SFW, just a bit weird).
  16. depends on the mood, the occasion, the food etc. For the most part I'm chipotle, which is usually jalape?o. I'm partial to a dash of habanero to spice things up, or birds eye for eastern dishes. Love scotch bonnet sauce with a fry up though. And when stomach is feeling robust, a bit of dragon's blood, and now have some dried naga bin jolokia from CPP!!
  17. He also talked about nothing but chilli in a feature article in the Observer Food Monthly. Nice chap.
  18. Oooooh, 5003!!!!! just passed your demidicentennial post!!!
  19. Chilli Hot Cocoa, liking the sound of that too!!
  20. "I'm sure you have touched the lives of many who you've come into contact with" Probably in fashions most of us would be deeply disturbed by!!
  21. Getting me some of this baby!! http://www.teapigs.co.uk/product/Tea/Black-tea/chilli+tea
  22. I never actually enjoy England's games as such (well, not since we twatted the Dutch 4-1), so I can actually sit back, relax and enjoy good football this time round. I fully support Spain, but for some reason I don't get quite the same knotted tension as watching England, despite their Englandlike ability to get themselves stupidly knocked out of tournaments.
  23. Did you see quids, that west ham had the highest Englishness in the Permiership this season (average 6.6 players per game), whilst Arsenal were lowest averaging just 0.3. Just an aside. I hope so too Sean. My sympathy also goes with Croatia who are a decent dark horse punt I reckon, difficult to breakdown and beaten a lot of big teams, Argentina, England.... My suspicion is the ever dependable Germans however.
  24. While we're sort of on the subject. I'm sure one morning on the Today Programme on t'radio a while back, as I was preparing to get on the plane to Amsterdam (I used to commute there every week, many moons ago), I listened to a story about Amsterdam's gay zoo. When I asked about it at work, the English thought it was a hilarious concept, the Dutch refused to believe it existed. A couple of google searches just brought up sites that would have been highly inappropriate viewing at work, and so its existence was never confirmed or denied. Does anyone know anything about this?
  25. ???chale huevos, Espa?a ?chale huevos, ?chale huevos, Espa?a ?chale huevos!!
