I had them last night. Pointed to my newish alarm and said I don't need a new once, thinking (stupidly) they'd just say "fair enough". But no - wouldn't go. What does it take for a penny to drop - I'VE ALREADY GOT A BLOODY ALARM, LOOK, IT'S JUST ABOVE OUR HEADS!

RIP Mandella though. I came face to face with NM once. I had a boyfriend who lived in Muswell Hill. I was on my way to my BF's house and I saw Nelson Mandella walking from a house to a car. I stood and stared and eventually said hello and he smiled and got in the car. It was an extraordinary moment. You don't expect to come across a legend in a London suburb. I told my boyfriend and he said, oh yeah, there's an ANC guy with a house in my street. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/7429566/South-African-government-buys-ANC-leaders-Muswell-Hill-home.html

There was a time when the main section was full of lost cats. Remember? Nobody would mind an incident being on the main page if it was an emergency, but then it could be relegated. I mean, who needs to be looking at "bad traffic on LL this morning" for a week. Lifetime ban isn't good enough; find out where they live and give them a house call.

Hello admin, Is it possible for crime to have it's own section? I know it isn't the first time you've been asked to consider this, and I know you have your reasons for doing things the way they are done, but the main section has been depressing reading for a long time. Please consider. Thank you. Px

I just had a text from my Mastercard provider; someone is shopping online with it right now at places I don't shop at. I've told them to cancel the card. Thing is, I know it is all rather tiresome, but the people who are stealing our money are often very clever at it, so you can't really blame the banks for imposing stringent checks.

Also, beware of the scam where they tell you to call your bank but they don't hang up so when you pick up the phone and think you're dialling your bank, the scammers are still on the line. If this happens to you say that you will call your bank back, but on a different phone. Like Jeremy, if my bank called me then I'd expect them to have relevant information and not be asking me for my account numbers etc. I shop a lot online so I get numerous calls/texts from my credit card/bank asking if I've made certain transactions (and I usually have).

That's a great post landlover

No, you didn't need to ask, you could have just let it slide. As it is, you're being self-righteous with someone you know nothing at all about. You don't know the lady or her partner or their lives, so let it go and don't ask her to explain herself to you. Give the benefit of the doubt. No wonder people don't post. These pointless digs are not only ugly but they're dull reading too.

Did you take it out of the envelope?

I bought some Christmas decorations from them last year and now they won't leave me alone.

Exactly. What have the Romans ever done for us?

Sharchat - sorry this happened to you, especially if they went into your daughter's bedroom. I just wondered - how can you be so precise about the time being 3.40am? I do have a reason for asking rather than just being nosey.

Tickets didn't sell out in 43 seconds. None of these nights are anywhere near sold out yet. I don't have an issue with the pricing because there were cheaper seats to be had. I have an issue with them not being that funny any more.

The O2 is just about OK for a loud evening of rock but definitely not for comedy. Demand was high for the Pythons so I guess if they'd have played a smaller venue then they wouldn't be able to shoe-horn as many people in. Some crazy prices on the secondary market for the Pythons right now. Personally I think the RAH would have been iconic.

My issue with it is that I just don't think they're funny any more. Well past their sell-by date. Plus, the O2 is not a venue for comedy IMO. All 5 nights are showing as sold out but they aren't as lots of blocks are being held back. So if anyone actually does want to go to it then wait a while until tickets are re-released, which will happen.

Try www.axs.com - they are also bastards but in their case they are the bastards that own the O2 http://www.axs.com/series/368/monty-python-live-mostly-one-down-five-to-go-tickets

?140 - where did you get that information from? It's wrong. Top price tickets are ?95 and the nosebleeds are ?27.50.

Ask the man in the pet shop on Northcross Road. He has two Dacshunds and I think he got them from a rescue centre so he may be able to point you in the right direction.

Often these days I think I've clicked on the Daily Mail by mistake. Otta's original question was "why?" I've never seen the point of trolling, or on having multiple on-line personalities, but, these days when I read some of the sanctimonious, self-satisfied, smug, holier than thou (need I go on), posting, I'm tempted to have a go myself. Of course most of the trolling that goes on on here is cowardly and un-funny but Snorky had a real genius for it. Please come back Snorky - we need you.

It's nothing new. Been around for centuries.

OK sorry, I don't understand Unix humour so I don't get the joke but I have a general sense of humour failure around all things Nazi/Goodwin's Law.

What? Seriously offensive and un-cool to call someone a Nazi on an open forum.
