  1. Yeh me too
  2. "Any one use bittorrent ? I heard that is a good way to get music." A post by Lewishamman on another thread. How many 79-year-olds do you know who know about bittorrent? I didn't think I was ageist, but I do think that is odd, and now I think this thread is even more sus, sorry :-$

  4. My daughter made me some tapes (yeh it was the olden days) when she was about sixteen, I never listened to them, even in the car :)) I made her some tapes, don't think she ever listened to them either :)) Generation gap, innit.
  5. Are you drunk? :))

  7. Isn't this in the wrong section of the forum????
  8. Is this some kind of joke? If not - erm - why would you get shot if you told the police? They're not going to pass on your identity, are they? :-S
  9. Back of Kebab and Stab, oops I mean Kebab and Wine, if you want to see another side of East Dulwich. Goose Green end of Lordship Lane, on same side as Black Cherry. I think they stay open all night. They have a full kebab-type menu and also serve alcohol. But will be noisy and busy. You have to persuade the bouncer to let you in though :)

They f****d up my sixtieth birthday do - a once in a lifetime event, obviously - which members of my family had travelled far and wide to. There were a number of kids, including my grandkids, which was the reason I chose the Herne (slide etc in the garden). Despite my going down specially some time beforehand to discuss the details of the booking at length in person, and then confirming it (so I thought) on the phone a few days beforehand, they still "didn't have it in the book". And tried to tell me it was my fault. Then the landlord told my partner "Your woman is doing my head in" when I got upset about the situation. Not good. Edited to say: I could have forgiven a mistake, if only there had been an immediate apology and an attempt to sort things out. Sadly this didn't happen until it was much too late. Very very poor customer relations.

Or, is there a > catch here? xxxxxxx Eh? The hotel owner has paid back the Russian 100 euros AND paid the meat supplier 100 euros. That's the "catch". Am I missing something? Why is this funny?

Supposed to chew one before a meal and it stopped you wanting to eat. Early seventies. Ish. :))
  18. Not sure if they like compulsory relocation :)
  19. I'd really like some frogs and/or toads, but I'm not sure they transplant easily outside their own territory. I only have a tiny tiny garden (though crammed full of climbers and stuff and has birds nesting) - too shady for a pond though I keep meaning to try. Do have a bird bath on the ground though, but don't think enough water for frogs? Anyone know?
  20. My first memory is of my father holding me on the platform of a tram - I think in Streatham. Must have been very early fifties.
  21. How awful. I hope he turns up, but if not is there any possibility of getting an (identical) replacement which you could distress a bit to make it look like Charlie? Would she realise? My nephew still thinks his pet hens which were eaten by a fox have gone on (a long) holiday ..... could a little white lie help or is it too late and she knows he's lost?
  22. No such thing as a good open mic night, wash my mouth out :))
