Personally I'd be really happy if it was a Co-op, but failing that Waitrose or M&S would do me :)

Hey good luck, we'll be down, let's try to have no date clashes :)) Really sorry to see you go and Boss Man must be even sorrier, his sales of Stella will plummet :))

Oh yeh forgot, I have Vodafone for my work mobile too and reception is fine. Hate the mobile though, horrid Nokia :))

Maybe they will get some new stock in. You could always ask if they could order the trainers for you?

You Go Your Way, My Love - Anne Briggs

I use Orange, reception is good where I live (North Cross Road area) and I got an excellent deal from them, but I think that's because I don't have high useage.

I wouldn't rule out having two so close together, I use Somerfield because Sainsbury's is a long walk and there's no point driving there unless I'm doing a rare big shop. I wouldn't like a Sainsbury's Local, but I would probably use it. I do hope it becomes a Co-Op, though. :-S

We used to scream at people we didn't even like much (when they were singing, obviously, not when passing them in the street etc) :))

Spiers and Boden at the Spitz. Stones at Tooting Odeon (RIP) circa 1965 :-$ (front row :)) ) Martin Carthy at Dundee Uni circa 1968 :-$ Incredible String Band only I can't remember where, sometime in the sixties ..... Brass Monkey anywhere :))

The Night Has a Thousand Eye(s) - Bobby Vee :)

Well, they should bring back the Broadside and put some decent plants outside. Sorted. :)

No idea if that is true.

Apparently it is still the Davina Boutique people running it, but they have had a "concept change".

You/ve Got a Friend = James Taylor

We live in Ulverscroft Village and all the houses in our road have just doubled in price :))

The kindest interpretation I can put on your observation, jimmytwotimes, is that it's naive. You don't have to have extremist views such as those you have seen on youtube (why on earth were you watching those clips, anyway?) to be racist. Racism can be expressed in very subtle and insidious ways. There may not be "much" racism on the forum, but to say "if any" is just plain wrong. I have personally reported several racist posts in the past which were then removed, and there have been others reported by other people. And that's quite apart from open comment and discussion on the subject on the forum itself. I have also "let pass" a number of comments which bordered on being racist because I just knew that if I challenged them I would be accused of being PC etc etc etc. And the above is just the ones I happen to have seen. I obviously don't read every thread on the forum, and I stopped reading a number of threads because the subject matter was winding me up so much. To make generalisations about the forum is as unhelpful as making generalisations about groups of people based on their ethnicity or any other characteristic they happen to share.
