Not sure if this counts as favourite, but it's bloody good Women's Aid

People who use 'can' when they mean 'may'.

Thanks for clearing that up Ted Max.

No Sue, after a walk in the woods one goes to the pub!

At the risk of appearing mawkish, there was a quote on London Live Radio from a man whose son, a serving policeman, texted his dad after the day to say "I'm ok, but yet again I was insulted, spat upon and somethingorothercan'tremember, and I couldn't retaliate. I've had enough, I'm getting out"

Ha ha Brendan, water works in the same sentence. *snigger*

Could I interest you in lime, sugar, de Kuyper triple sec & tequila, Brum?

There's a whole thread devoted to trainspotting. Search "day off"!

I would rather be Thes than fork out six oboloi!

Think that was cribbed from a Churchill quote: I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.

Is he really M Piers? I retract anything I said which could be vaguely approving.

I say, clever that oracle thingy;I typed in Sybil Thorndike and it came up with a link.

Mayhap some young cub reporter thought he'd scooped B'rand Russell. I don't find him particularly funny, but I do think Brand has an amazing facility with words so I'm surprised to hear he flunked an interview.

Mr M, you sure look purdy in flounces. Of course you will be more than acceptable, it's just that Davidi (no idea where these extra vowels keep coming from) has performed the office before and knows how moronic I am.

A heron was fishing in the Peckham Rye pond for most of yesterday. Anyone know what it's stocked with? Looked like black blobs about an inch long (my pescatoral knowledge is astounding). Re black blobs, anyone noticed these flourishing on dead trunks in P Rye and Nunhead Cemetery? Looking remarkably like dog poo they are in fact King Alfred's Cakes - a fungus which when dried out and cut into slivers, has very good qualities for lighting camp fires as it creates a long glowing ember.

I can't go unless Mr Carnelli will be there to tactfully whisper everyone's names into my ear. I have a name/face barrier. (Probably just premature senility).

From the Karavan thread, by ontheedge: I would like to buy an eastern European country which ones are you selling as I intend to set up an independent anarchist state for those of a sensitive nature, there will be no banks I will just take everyone's money, it will be pram free and there will be no nick knack shops, there will be no variety of food or people so no complaints. Everyone will be between 25 -35 so let me know quick so utopia can be in sight and we can stop the moaning on here for those who don't fit into said categories Thank you

Hugenot, you have taken my insomnia to new heights. I woke in the middle of the night with "Grandad" going round my head. Cheers.

Off with his head.

Manor Place Depot off Walworth Road. Prob closed by now. Council will pick up up to 15 large items for free. Easiest to book online (when it's up again).

Brendan, everyone knows Rolls Royces never break down.

Can't imagine HM would be seen dead in a maroon car!

I'd like two of number 5. please. I'm setting up a mud bath in my garden pronto.

of course it's true

Zadok the Priest. (who says I have royalist pretensions?)
