Iceland has three packets of spare ribs for a fiver :)) And three bottles of not too ghastly wine for a tenner :)) Sorry admin, off topic, slaps self hard on wrist ......

Ah, thanks - was very loud in ED then! And quite late, too!

Lovely on the Water - Steeleye Span

5-4-3-2-1 - Manfred Mann

The last couple of times I've been into the Lordship Lane Post Office there has been no queue at all, much to my amazement. It also seems to be undergoing some sort of brightening-up process. I quite like going in there as I find the staff very friendly. I usually try to remember to take a book to read in the queue though.....

Burning Down the House - Talking Heads

I think an EDF internet radio station is an extraordinarily bad idea, but then the only radio I listen to is Radio 3 as an alarm clock :))

John Martyn. Davey Graham. Johnny Collins. Jah Lush, great pic :))

We've gotta get out of this place - The Animals

I don't see how it can possibly have been an "illusion", assuming that he did actually publicly state these numbers in advance of the draw and that is on record? Edited to say: Ooops sorry, I wrote the above before I looked at the link, obviously he didn't actually predict them but somehow inserted the "correct" balls before they were shown after the draw. :-$

After last year's fete, The Goose offered to put on local singers and musicians all through this year's fete - with no charge for either our organising it or the singers' time - but nobody got back to us after an initial expression of interest. Very happy to arrange something for next year.

Who/where is Sopers?

I also agree. What agenda is behind this scaremongering? Not the first time on this forum, and never any hard facts to back it up.

I live in a road off North Cross Road, and closing NCR would be very inconvenient if I want to wreck the environment by going somewhere in my car on a Saturday. NIMBY!! Edited to say: Actually I don't feel that strongly about it :)

They didn't live in it, as far as I know, just exposed all the roots of a shrub. I haven't seen any foxes in the garden lately, but there was a huge one a year or so ago, apparently terrorising a cat, or possibly vice versa. When I went into the garden it leaped over the wall.

They dug a very large hole in my very small back garden - I don't have a lawn - didn't store any food in it and didn't back fill it? :-S

Venus in Blue Jeans - Bobby Vee

It's the time of year, innit. Fox yoot asserting themselves and seeing off rivals. I think. Edited to say: Also at this time of year they dig holes, parents teaching cubs how to dig, so I've read, could be a load of b******s of course.

When you say footpath, do you mean some kind of alteration/addition to the existing pavement? I thought you meant a path going from CPR to somewhere else, hence my confusion!

Is it?

Talking about different things I think - didn't see any sign of a proper footpath, but maybe I looked in the wrong place, quite likely

I thought you meant a permanent footpath .... Presume you mean the temporary walkway due to work being done on the pavement??
