Wot, no Pele?

Why?

Great! If a rat-run and a school are the precedents, please may we block off Adys Road?

Ask not for whom the bell tolls ...

Alas, St John's Goose Green bells do not chime between 11 pm and 7 am.

Bloody satisfying!

I'm sure I had a coronation chicken sandwich when I was a nipper.

Gosh MM, you've made me blush. Perhaps you'd better edit again this morning when your hangover kicks in. That was an exciting first day. Trivial 'fact' of the day: Apparently the term "cow corner" was first used at Dulwich College. However, I can't pin down whether this is true or not.

Let's hope the twelfth man has plenty of Mars Bars: http://www.espncricinfo.com/the-ashes-2015/content/story/903641.html So, third test coming up; another whitewash or will England surprise us?

Brilliant

Oh numbers, are the bay city rollers reforming

So sorry to hear this,I know how worrying iris. Do you have a Facebook appeal we can link to. If you have some fliers made local shops will post then up.also bus and taxi drivers are very good at spreading the word and keeping an eye out

Did you hear about the magic tractor? It turned into a field.

I think we lag far too behind Dulwich to achieve true gentrification: http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/jul/10/croquet-heathrow-study-die-out-2037-dulwich

I did wonder whether social services should be involved! I love a nail-biting test. This morning I thought England had it in the bag. A huge run chase for Australia, but you never know.

Game on! After that appalling start, England didn't do so badly, but I know I'm going to have that gnawing feeling in my stomach until it's all over. No Sky*, so only have TMS and OBO to go on, but Mitchell Johnson didn't seem on form. I saw him at Kent recently and he was positively scary. *After 10 years' protest and not signing up to the Evil One, I may just have to concede that it won't return to terrestial tv.

I'm dying to know where you come from, *bob*.

It's not pinin'! It's passed on! This tree is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet it's maker! This is a late tree. [Council chopped it up this morning - just left a stump.]

With my deerstalker firmly in place, I would note who regularly parks there. It is the time of year when bird shit is stained red - maybe someone is precious about their car.

Noooooooooooo. That would make my username absurd.

I've had some yummy bread from that stall, but I'm slightly put off by the threading and the thought of some random stranger's eyebrow hair. Not quite sure why you would sit in a public place to have that done, but maybe I'm a prude.

If it is cherry, the stones could be dispersed by guano.

Just finished Penelope Lively's "Ammonites and something else". Most succinct description of the Suez Crisis I've ever read. The rest was a bit meh. Am two chapters in of "The Last Rosette" by one of the Pullein-Thompson sisters. (Can't be bothered to get up and look which one). Absolutely topping. Not for Aquarius Moon and her ilk though, descriptions of fox hunting and hunt carcasse stores abound. I am transported back to my childhood, and I still want a pony for Christmas.

The guerilla gardening by the car wash at Sainsburys looks fab. Well done those peeps.

Alas he won't come back, but I do miss SimonM. Hona TedMax Brendan Moos I miss them, I miss them, I miss them. (said in best Juliet Stevenson voice).
