Peckhamgatecrasher

Being in a very long queue at the till and having to wait while the people in front are surprised that they have to pay for their goods and at that point start looking for their purse/wallet.

Edited to temper my post. The writer didn't sway me.

Oh shame on you, DM. If you can confuse a fetching eyepatch with the garments that a 'lady' would wear on her nether regions, you must be drinking too much.

Memory of an elephant, me.

Blimey Sean, now who's spoiling for a fight? I don't think timid is an epithet that could be applied to me - CCTV really doesn't impinge on my life one way or another. I think PeckhamRose's question is valid - it would be interesting to see why a salubrious street has 'protection' - do we know where our councillors live?. I rather think the whole thing may be a wind-up or more in the vein of erecting speed cameras with no film in them.

Agreed, that's why I phrased it as I did.

Too little, too late Tony. You forced me to go to Daily Mail Online - that will take a lot to forgive you.

I just don't think CCTV in the street is a big deal. Two days ago my neighbour had extremely offensive graffiti sprayed on his van; two weeks ago he had three tyres of his car slashed. I think they were random acts, not connected, and since he is an extremely affable bloke assume it is bad luck and not a concerted attack on him. CCTV would have gone a long way to preventing this. I'm more concerned by things like wiping out hundreds of years of our constitution by felling the House of Lords with nary a peep from anyone.

I think you're all overreacting and comparing CCTV to the Holocaust is bordering on offensive. I'm with Steve on this, just ignore it and go about your business - if it's not criminal then you shouldn't be affected. Besides, it's more fun to break rules than get upset about it.

Which colour to wear with my Allegra Hicks? Jolly sore when one is hit by a speeding cork. http://retailconnectiononline.com/_borders/EyePatchColor.jpg

There is no clarity in your post. What are you on about?

You've kept that quiet Keef - wangle us some tickets.

No SMcG - if I were spoiling for a fight, I'd be direct. It was a genuine question - it's not a word I tend to use in any context (except in the Enid Blyton sense), nor mix with those who would use it derogatively.

James, I'm confused. You have just used the word 'gay' in a sentence. Either it is an acceptable word or it isn't - please enlighten me.

Either licking his wounds post one-day drubbings, or admiring his gorgeous wife in a bikini somewhere.

Complete with swimming pool and mountains if memory serves correctly.

The fox is named Aubrey and has unrequited love for Moos' hat.

Sure it's not our blessed Home Secretary's house?

That would be about 7 minutes plus 2 minutes. Sounds like Mark's leading a crocodile from Locale at 8pm - tempted to join in too.

Guilty as charged. Asset's one too. I promise to bring more highbrow stuff next time.

Loving the logic.
