I know ex drug users who have very responsible jobs. Don't make assumptions! Edited to add: I also know drug users who have very responsible jobs!

On Saturdays. Edited to add: And his garlic is good as well.

OMG I used to have an album called, or possibly by, Silk Road, some ambient alternative eighties s**t

Diwana Bhel Puri (I think that's what it's called) and Ravi Shankar are run by the same people, so both excellent cheap South Indian Food. Best things are the bhel puri starter and the almond kulfi ice cream dessert, best kulfi in London and home made, not delivered from some central kulfi production factory. But the dhosas are pretty good too :)-D

Another vote for Fujiyama :)

Story of your life, innit ..... Different drummer and all that ..... Edited to add: Actually maybe I'm talking about the story of my life, blah blah .....

I think we should be discussing versions of Hallelujah, and nobody comes close to Rufus Wainwright. Discuss :) Edited to add: PGC, your bottom is without doubt a thing of beauty. And a joy forever. Edited again to add: In a way which cannot be misconstrued, of course.

Bloody hell, last factory tours I went on were in Moscow in 1966 (honest!) Perfume factory and I can't remember what the others were. School exchange between Lambeth and Moskvoretski (spelling?) - Moscow suburb. First ever with Russia (as it was) so far as I know. Sorry, as you were .....

This happened to me recently, lol. I carried my laptop downstairs when it was on, and when I got downstairs everything was upside down :)) Took me f-ing ages to sort, and I had to phone my computer nerd brother :-$ If I recall correctly, it's a graphics thing - right click on the desktop and go into graphics options, and it's something to do with rotation - you need to rotate it back 180 degrees. The worst thing is that everything is mirror image with the mouse :))

Unfair. xxxxxxx If you mean I'm setting him up to fail, which hopefully you weren't, I wasn't criticising the councillor, just suggesting that phoning the council directly would almost certainly point in the right direction quicker than waiting for an answer via an internet forum.

In my experience Tessa Jowell has always responded very quickly to queries and comments. Or someone in her office has. Whichever, good for her. Nice change to see efficiency!

:)) They've got taste then! :)-D

Why don't you ring the council and ask which bit of the council might be able to help? Might be quicker!!

But they both seemed very young foxes themselves - a work colleague reckoned they would be siblings? And surely that size hole wouldn't hold a family of foxes, and surely they would dig the holes themselves?? Not that I'm doubting you, you understand :)

Haven't been on the forum long have you? TheGooseIsOut has just started twittering, can't understand half of it, my daughter told my to rtfm, I had to google that as well :)) Edited to say: I probably mean tweeting, not twittering, which exemplifies my problem :))

Well done to the forum person who had the common sense to look in a phone list!

A forum member looked up the surname in the phone list, and I phoned them and yes it was theirs, so thanks forum person and I hope the bus driver didn't bin it!

What, 24/7? :)) Seriously (before this thread gets lounged or worse) why would two foxes be sleeping happily in my garden then disappear? edited to say: My garden in East Dulwich, that is ....
