  1. Most shops have a trolley. I borrowed one from my local convenience store to shift a washing machine.
  2. This thread may help you. It mentions the war memorial in Lordship Lane and refers to a memorial plaque in St Giles, Camberwell. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,23050,785254#msg-785254
  3. I did. The wee one is very bonny.
  4. Well done, Emil. That is rather funny.
  5. Dancing the Gay Gordons at work with randomish Scottish bloke.
  6. "kindle jobbie" Come the Revolution ...
  7. Bugger, bugger, bugger. Where's Geoff's mum and her stick of rhubarb when you really need her? Or couldn't it rain - it's an English summer! I reckon Cook and Prior will soon be off.
  8. Something to lighten the last day (goodness knows we need something): http://www.telegraph.co.uk/men/relationships/fatherhood/10971098/My-wife-is-due-to-give-birth-today-on-the-first-day-of-Lords.-What-do-I-do.html#disqus_thread
  9. Alan, it is so there is time between matches to repair and maintain pitches. Also, they may be formulated for different bowling conditions, so depending on your team, weather, drainage, etc, you can prepare one that favours the home team's strengths.
  10. Wonderful cricket. The tail enders of both sides have really carried this game.
  11. According the the glossy newsletter, there is an "Edgar Karl Way". Nice to see they are in touch with their historic roots.
  12. Remake 'Escape to Victory'? Can't believe noone else has picked up on this travesty. Who will be Pele?
  13. A little aside (with reference to Cote D'Ivoire, Holland, etc): If Scotland win their independence, will we be known as the Disunited Kingdom?
  14. Cricket really is too heart attack-inducing. Great finish to Sri Lanka.
  15. Wow. Thought their keeper was excellent. Cahill was pretty dammned good. Curse Suarez, bless Rooney.
  16. Run, ASP, run for the hills.
  17. "I'm tempted by anything with Clemence Posey in it." Didn't have you down as a Harry Potter fan, D_C. I loved The Returned. Seriously creepy, which I don't do but was hooked before I realised it was seriously creepy.
  18. Well that was a little bit exciting. My heart says don't bowl bouncers at tail enders, it's not fair. My head says annihilate them.
  19. That was a bloody stupid foul, right at the end too.
  20. Blimey, I'm moving countries. Viva L'Espana!
  21. I predict [scientifcally based on my very large English breakfast this morning versus an espresso (which is all that Montalbano has in the morning)] that England will win. Even if you allow a full milk cappuccino and a rusk, we still top Italy. If you analyse last night's match (Sp v Holl) you will see that coffee and biscuit is trumped by coffee and bread with ham and cheese. Told you it was scientific.
  22. I want to know if it's junk, why not junk it?
  23. So is drinking to excess - I like being conventional.
  24. I'm not entirely comfortable with mankading, but the lad was warned apparently. Jonathan Agnew article on it was interesting, he reckons the umpire should apply a five run fine rather than the bowler being allowed to run batsman out. He also said: "What I will say in balance is that Joe Root stood his ground when he knew full well he had been caught behind by Kumar Sangakkara off a huge glove. He decided to stand there and hope he got away with it, eventually being given out following a successful Sri Lanka review. It's difficult to take the moral high-ground on a spirit of the game issue when your team has done that just a couple of hours earlier." edited for split infinitive (grammar not good with a hangover)
