  1. I figured I'd start bringing the mocklet to play groups, stories, music that sort of thing, once he was able to sit up. Now that at almost seven months hes crawling and sitting i figured it a good time to start. But looking at the southwark sheets, everything has 'term time only' plastered all over it. Can anyone suggest things to do during the holidays? Is there a different time table out there for hols? Any advice/suggestions gratefully received.
  2. Interesting season? Yeah right, Chelsea, or Man U ... yaaaaaaaaaawn. Anyway, Hamlets whipped Fulham's third team soundly, comfortably and with some style. If they can keep playing like that they could finally start threatening for promotion.
  3. Though back to 'i can cook', it was asparagus fritata today. I mean come on, pea omelette perhaps?!? Tomorrow I'm guessing various amuse bouche doubtless in some sort of jus. Get a grip auntie beeb.
  4. Tommy's on Peckham Rye have a good range and they're lovely chaps so go along and give them all a feel....the buggies, not the chaps. We ended up with a mamas and papas thing. It's comfy, easy to use and light which means i can go on the underground, but really doesn't cope with Irish country roads so our ill advised graco behemoth works wonders there.
  5. Oh. I don't think so, Aisha is pronounced Esher, but it's spelt differently. *ahem* Ooh look, a shiny penny.
  6. Your Chinese had a disastrous crop last year and prices have doubled you see, supply and demand type stuff. Is anything NOT made in China any more?
  7. Ha ha, just checked yournotme.com and there are 6 Croydons and 38 Bromleys in the UK!!!!
  8. Ooh, I rather like Bromley. Well there's Heston of course. Lambeth has a nice ring, I'm thinking boys name. Wembley, wasn't she a fraggle? Putney has potential, maybe Mortlake (a bit harry potter mind you....I imagine) How about Aveley? Mudchute? Perhaps not.
  9. Actually she reminds me of someone I had a crush on when I was 15 but that's another tale. It is a bit Masterchef though isn't it, I mean, courgette and parmagiano, come on, they're four for goodness sake, cauliflower cheese perhaps? Gastro has corrupted the nation. Right I'm off for some Jambon, Ouef and Frites.
  10. I'm just watching 'I Can Cook' and can't help but notice that one of the kids is called Esher. Esher. I mean seriously........Esher. Now I admit that in my names book there was the name Croydon, and that if it wasn't for the association with a dreadful South London suburb it's actually aesthetically a nice thing, as is Esher thinking about it, but really they are London suburbs and intrinsically bad ideas. So little Croydon also avoided Finchley and Soho and has a normal name, anyone else have any close calls with unwise naming ideas?
  11. i think i spend a depressingly large chunk of my life asleep. such a waste!!!
  12. Cool, cousin Tom and my brother should be coming along too.
  13. Anyone coming along to the Fulham friendly at the hamlets on Tuesday? Ooh, and Joe Cole looking rather good for Liverpool, good signing that one.
  14. Moment of clarity.......Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner
  15. My bad, it was just The Island. wikistuffbits
  16. As someone mentioned shutter island, an I right in thinking that was effectively a remake of Logan's Run. not really a twist, though Jenny Agutter looks great in it so who cares.
  17. But you know what happens don't you [in alien]. Its been spoofed about a million times.
  18. I cried when Ronald Reagan died in some very old wartime drama when i was about 6. In real life not so much.
  19. Johnny Depp in Nightmare on Elm Street for sheer silliness.
  20. Thing is with the likes of Usual Suspects and Seven is that they're well enough known. To say that anyone is giving away spoilers would be like suggesting giving away what happens to John Hurt in Alien is a spoiler. It's not really is it. I'm also finally on Keef's side that The Wire is pretty much out there now too and we should be a bit less sensitive about it. Moon however is under appreciated and regards that I shall stay completely shtum except to say it's not a classic rentatwist in the ending at all is it. Very good though, reminiscent of the sort of films made in the heyday of cinema that was the seventies. .....discuss......
  21. Agree with Bambi's mum. Can i suggest General Woundwort in Watership Down on a cartoony rabbit theme. Which brings to mind Elmer Fudd shooting Bugs Bunny dead in the Family Guy pastiche. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHJi2QXwX8E
  22. Jimmy Cagney in White Heat. The original and still the best. Scarface more or less lifted it wholesale and added 80s decadence and lurid neon tones to it. Though don't get me wrong, Scarface a firm favourite of mine.
  23. Thinking about it, Memento, a film which is basically nothing but twists, every scene making you look at all the previous ones in a new light, works rather well. The final scenes then are not so much 'i never saw that coming' as 'ooh what clever and satisfying film that was'.
  24. "And yes I also fancied Sean Young." Aaaah, the lovely Rachel, now there's a film, and one where most people don't even spot the twist; well directors cut version. "right, so, he's....a.....unicorn?"
  25. And why must the villain always be impaled, or fall from a great height. Or fall from great height and be impaled? In the case of the above film I even saw the scissors lying in the background in the final scene of the heroines tranquility which no villain would think of intruding upon, ooh no, and said 'stabbed in the heart with scissors', ta-ding, 10 points for mockney. Sorry, that was a spoiler I guess though my advice would be NEVER WATCH THAT FILM!!!!
