Careful Keef, I've barely had a chance to recover from that pop you had at the Pixies. I don't tut people in the supermarket though (God bless Ocado).

Going to a Go Go - The Rolling Stones (not really but I like it, oh yes I do)

Sweet Child O' Mine - Guns n' Roses

Oh yes let's hit Boots together one day. Mine is the Kingsway branch just opposite Holborn Tube. I don't have a problem anywhere else - just Boots.

Don't even get me started on pointless shop assistants. They should all leave me the hell alone. Unless I want some help. Then where the F do they all go to? Luckily for us in ED, I?ve found that most pointless shop assistants tend to inhabit the USA. Abercrombie & Fitch takes the prize. I usually avoid Abercrombie & Fitch because (aside from the prices) the girl assistants need a good feed and/or a good slap, and the usual hottie with no shirt on on the way in* really unsettles me to the point of not being able to remember how to put one foot in front of the other. Nevertheless, I found myself last Christmas Eve in Las Vegas with a suitcase full of summer frocks. I was in the desert, who knew it was going to be freezing? So I?m in A&F at Ceasar?s Palace trying to buy anything with some frigging warmth to it, just as the A&F winter sale started. This was not a good idea but, hey, make a sentence out of ?choosers? and ?beggars? if you will. The place was trashed, seriously trashed. I was already late for cocktail hour and was bitch slapping anything that got between me and anything woollen in my size. Regardless of the warzone that was their store, they carried on with all their ?Stepford Assistant? crap without any trace of irony. It was scary. ?How are you today?, ?who is helping you today?, and the classic ?were you able to find everything you wanted today Maaam? (no I was not, you pointless stick insect). I usually let this sort of crap slide over me (I?m a regular visitor to the US) but I was in no frigging mood that day. Plastic and pointless. Thank you Moos for letting me brain dump this petty annoyance. * the A&F hottie with no shirt on is not pointless, oh no.

The Heart's Filthy Lesson - David Bowie

Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice (very sorry)

Pretty Baby - Blondie

Well you may not warm to them NOW, but you wait until one of them dies a horrible death, then you'll all be sorry in spades.

Both Gallaghers need smacking really hard but personally I would never get tired of seeing Liam getting decked.

A presentation from my friend Andrew who is obviously very bored at work today.

RSC's HAMLET: Just a reminder to anyone on the forum who may want to see David Tennant's Hamlet that the public sale of tickets is this Friday, 12th Sept. Tickets went on sale to RSC members back in July and, frankly, there is little left for a public sale. However, the RSC holds back a few seats for public sale (I guess just so that it can say that it DID actually have a public sale). To get public seats you will need to be on the phones on Friday morning as soon as they go on sale. Good luck - the Stratford reviews are excellent.

I had dinner at Soho House a week or so ago. The restaurant was OK but the bars are full of knobheads. We don't want that kind of thing in ED.

I had Sunday lunch yesterday at Franklins. Delicious as always but not cheap.
