He was going to waer a t-shirt with lost the plot on it, but I think it was in the wash.

No probs. I a quick look and I may have yet to actaully pay anything; best head down the canning I guess.

Mike!! don't get all south london pres on us. I think it's a great idea. I think it'd be interesting to see what the younglings have to say, especially as they have a significantly lower incidence of chipshoulder than the grownlings. We can't let blimmin' scaremongering get in the way. But yes, it would need careful moderation

Blimey!!! And we wonder why our kids turn into resentful behooded teenagers at the margins of society?

Is Umbridge where the posh Archers is set? ;-P

> Could we turn their corpses into biodiesel, d'you think? LOL!!!! We need more 'outside of the box' thinking like that Ant.

I know the feeling. This might help for the future

I have vague memories filtering through of your husband showing me something terribly clever and cheeky with a DS, but the details somehow escape me today. Any chance of some elaboration?

The world seems to be turning excesively widdershins today, but I'm sure it'll calm down eventually. Lovely to see everyone, and mucho aplodjoth if I spouted far too much nonsense last night. Once again I can but echo Sean's words at how good it was to see some new faces and I had such a blimmin' good time. GG you're lovely and I really hope it all works out, in fact it will, I can feel it in my waters ;), and yes, our Ems is a superstar. Right, snags and The Wire series 2 for me. Anyone up for the rugger tonight?

Ha ha, I progressed to the scouts where my parents withdrew me because we did nothing _but_ unruly behaviour, thus freeing me up to hang around street corners in an oikish manner. Kids these days huh?

This is the bestmmusic and dance performance I've EVER seen. Miss Douglas plays Star Wars http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wffwg7pA0t8

I will echo sean's comments, not because we are one and the same person or anything, but the boy does talk sense alot. You can 'borrow' my xbox for a while if you like, I've a fair old back catalogue of games that should keep you entertained for a while if you're not in a great rush to go next gen. Halo 1 and Halo 2 of course!! I just had a glowing review of the PS3 from a mate of mine yesterday. He said it was noticeably better then the 360 (which he also owns) but Seans's right, no really compelling games; well, Gran Turismo 4 could well be.

It's quite alright Brendan. It's a pretty shameful episode in our history, big bloody bullies that we are. I tend to vent my political spleen in other places, but believe me I get just as heat up about things!! *and yes, I'll see you there.

Jet Set Willy, playable version (don't worry SFW)... http://www.mjwilson.demon.co.uk/jsw.html "Give me the boy and I will give you the man" and they say the church isn't based on indoctrination huh? Mind you, so was teh scouts. Did anyone see Ian Hislop's docu about Baden-Powell and the scouting movement? It was surprisingly interesting. He initially envisioned scouting as a way to prepare a supposedly sickly urban generation for the disciplines and riguors of war, having been a very successful soldier himself (yeah, I know where, sorry Brendan). But on witnessing the horrors of the trenches he became very much the pacifist and rejinked the whole emphasis of the movement to promote communication and understanding across national lines to promote peace.

I was playing devils advocate, I think it's a gorgeous car. I of course refer people to my desire, not sure you can class it as a convertible though. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,52003,52438#msg-52438

Is there a reason why this is for poseurs, doubtless driven by some t0sser of an estate agent or a WAG type, and this is for wind in the hair, fuzzy and romantic Mightn't the Bristol just have been bought by an estate agent in 1960?

Will you be fully laden with camera bobbins that will make me green with envy?

Oh yeah, "God and to the Queen" yeah you're right. I guess I never really thought too deeply over that bit as I don't recall God letting me know what he expected of me. Our Akela was really quite scary, but we had a lovely Baloo of whom I have similar memories to yours domitianus. I suspect I was passed over because Akela didn't like the cut of my jib. I've consistently been told by authority figures that I'll never live up to my potential, whatever the hell that means. My ambition didn't stretch much beyond completing Jet Set Willy, which I duly did, so I've no idea what they were harping on about frankly.

> It was probabaly the biting the heads of chickens and flinging entrails around the hall that they objected to Isn't that possibly encouraged in Voodoo?

We were forced to swear an allegiance to the Queen and a disney animated Wolf every meeting (or whatever they were called), but I don't recall any God bothering, perhaps I've blocked out the trauma. My neckerchief was a lovely claret colour and I had a green woggle. I should have been made a sixer but some new kid joined who was a month older than me and instantly got the promotion that should have been mine... MINE I TELL YOU!!!! That's when I learned that life ain't fair and there's definitely no God, a useful lesson for a 9 year old which has never been forgotten.

With Control hitting the cinemas, I thought I'd pop up a little Joy Division Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But these guys are good in their own rights too Interpol - NYC Editors - Munich and finally, couldn't resist Half Man half Biscuit - Joy Division Oven Gloves

Yeah, that was our (ex)own Tom. I did pick him up on the use of unnecessarily scaremongering and emotive language, it doesn't do the debate any favours. Hopefully Jenny will offer a slightly more measured approach if her editor lets her.

> if you have no religion you're not allowed to be in the guides or scouts Is that true? Oops; My youth was fraudulent!!

Would quizzo have permitted 666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666? Bit of a silly question that one. Right I'll go get a life.

>> a few cheap but powerful laptops If it's only for internet usage then all you really need is a few cheap laptops, even some old 486s would probably suffice.
