Is that what you call a woolly shag?

'Gentleman of the Road of no particular descent' is the nearest I will allow.

Shakespeare also piled on the horror with "E'en now a black ram is tupping your white ewe" but I suspect in today's environment, such racism wouldn't go down to well. Guy Ritchie chose to marry Madonna - nuff said.

Il Giardino is the Italian in Blenheim Grove. Bit of a 70s throwback, but jolly if you are not expecting top haute cuisine and darling owners. No idea what Bar Story is like now, but when it opened it served very robust, hearty fare (homemade hummous was superb). Again not fine dining, but great atmosphere. Ganapati is supposed to be the best Indian around for miles but I'm not a curry expert. Montpellier pub had good reviews when it opened.

BBW - please stop using the word 'pikey'. It has horrid connotations and I wince everytime I see you use it. Play nicely.

I think our services are required in Kennington. A fox ran on the field during a game at the Oval yesterday. First time the words "fox stopped play" has been used.

Damn - didn't know Kate Bush had died. Must start a thread.

Highway Code 243 states: you must not park opposite or within 10 metres (32 feet) of a junction, except in an authorised parking space. This site may be an effective way to highlight dangerous spots: fix my street

I see Ted Maxx as more of a hamlet - smooth and mellow with three pubs, a church and Dolly's Store.

Jean Christophe would do me.

My father can still remember his Grandma's Co-op number in Glasgow.

Sue Perkins and you're talking!

I wish I was a wild west hero - ELO

You wait til Ted gets hold of 48 quails ...

At least Hugh would know how to skin a lift engineer and get a freezer full of food out of him.

I think it's good - makes me chuckle everytime I see it. Since it is the only bookshop in ED, I guess it is the worst and best!

Curly, this is the interpretation from the NIV Study Bible, written by a consortium of over 100 scholars working for the International Bible Society. Ecc 9: 5 & 10 "When Solomon says the dead know nothing and that there is no work, planning, knowledge, or wisdom in death, he is not contrasting life with afterlife, but life with death. After you die, you can't change what you have done. Resurrection to a new life after death was a vague concept for OT believers. It was only made clear after Jesus rose from the dead. Anyhoo - how does talking of an eternal soul or not prove that God exists which was the original poster's question?

Do I remember you? I rather think you left a reminder! That's 13 years' child support please - it was twins so make that double. They will both be needing work experience later in the year - I can supply the plectrums (like I've supplied all their clothes, food, emotional and spiritual nurture). Bastard.

Reckon it must be BBW - anagrams into Brute By Hills!

Oh wow - has Billy Bremner been reincarnated?

I asked for something in the wanted section yesterday, and an obliging forumite responded.

Happy Birthday, Quids!

Should we not meet at the EDT for a stirrup cup?

What do you mean she's not back to work yet, entertaining 12 to dinner and riding sidesaddle while changing a nappy and breastfeeding?

Mono I trust.
