Yeh, that way misses out Thornton Heath High Street but there isn't usually too much traffic there

Good luck with your move, Becca, bet the secret garden is brilliant :)

Anyone know where the huge amount of smoke which could be seen from Lordship Lane tonight was coming from?

You obviously don't end up at the checkout with a zillion bags full of stuff you don't really need but it's all so cheap but you end up spending enormous amounts of money and no way could you get it back on public transport. :))

Wouldn't have thought you were a violent person, Moos. Love and Peace, Man :))

I go Lordship Lane, Sydenham Hill, Crystal Palace Parade, straight on down Queen's Road, left down South Norwood Hill, right onto White Horse Lane, right down Thornton Heath High Street to the clock tower, left past Thornton Heath Station to the end of that road, right to Thornton Heath Pond (a few yards on from where you turn right), turn left there then straight run through to Ikea. Not forgetting to call at the Chinese supermarket and/or Wyevale's (bit further on where the old Purley Way swimming pool used to be). Edited to add: Gone this route loads of time, never had any problems Edited again to add: I've been to Ikea on a Friday night and it was virtually empty

It wasn't till much later that I realised there must have been a sewage outlet there, quite near the shore too, YUK, don't know how none of us became sick :X

I once had a courier leave a parcel on the wall outside my house, and of course it was nicked. The funny thing was, it contained a book whose title was something like "How to Get Things For Free". :))

Ah - I must be going there at the wrong time of day or week or something then, I haven't seen any in there for months! Or organic veg??

Hey Wichita Lineman, love it :)

Girl - The Beatles

When I was a student many moons ago I worked in the caff at a frozen food factory over the summer, and was instructed to defrost the chickens in a sink of hot water. Mind you we also used to fry the chips with ciggies hanging out of our mouths over the chip pan .... Great job, back shift, got to read lots of books and a taxi home paid for at the end of the shift :))

I got a packet today, I only ordered it last Wednesday so it was probably posted towards the end of last week.

Well here's a new take on things .... Just got back from work. I have a very small letterbox. Found on the mat an empty jiffy bag (posted First Class, definitely Royal Mail) and six separate ink cartridges strewn about. Evidently the postie couldn't get the parcel through the letter box in one go, so used his/her initiative. Not sure whether to be glad or annoyed ....

ooer crossed post, spooky :-S OK going back to flapjackdavy's: The Common People - Pulp

Play With Fire - Stones

Back in the USSR - The Beatles

We Gotta Get Out of This Place - The Animals
