If the measure of a fan's support is that he sticks with a crap team for donkey's years, I beat you all hands down! (And me Grandda tried out for Millwall in the 30s). So ner.

I had postal vote a couple of years ago. The ballot paper never turned up so I went to the polling station and was not allowed to vote because I should have received it through the post! Switched back pretty quickly, besides, I like to take my daughter along to the polling station - I think it's important to expose children to the procedure and it's always an excuse for a quick history lesson (Madam Pankhurst I salute you).

I was walking a border collie off the lead in Peckham Rye when two unsupervised toddlers came running up to him screaming and chasing the dog and throwing gravel at him. He did what any self-respecting sheep dog would do to recalcitrant sheep and nipped one of the toddlers. That doesn't make him a dangerous dog but we do need to remember that even the best tempered dogs are instinctive creatures. It is ultimately the owner's responsibility, but I do think children should be coached not to approach dogs without permission [and I'm not suggesting that's what happened in this instance - just a timely reminder for future safety. On the same lines, children need to be reminded to stand completely still if they are frightened by a loose dog: running away and squealing (though completely understandable) again will provoke a chase instinct in a dog.]

There has been filming on Adys Rd today in the swing park and a private house (?750 for a scene at the kitchen table - why, oh why didn't they pick my house?). Apparently it's for something on channel 4 about knife crime.

If you take three score year and ten as your starting point, I reckon its 32-38. I'm currently enjoying old age and just wondering which cruise to take.

You can buy this at chemist which should achieve same effect (welcome to my middle-aged world, Brendan) hangover cure

Just use a solution of salt and sugar. Or better still, add salt and sugar to a Bloody Mary!

What's that? A tot of whisky in the bottle and they're pickled?

Is it my bias, or is the ref favouring Celtic somewhat?

Save a bit of wall for me - am making up a banner. "Just like a bod that's sitting by the water, we shall not be moved."

I think its a great idea. I got my fireplace from a council run one in Peckham a couple of years ago. I think the council run them fairly often, it's just the advertising is a bit low key.

Quite agree - my daughter has made two trips to A&E in the last six weeks and had an op to straighten her broken nose. The staff were absolutely brilliant in A&E and the theatre & ward. The only moan is reserved for waiting for drugs upon discharge - there has to be a better system - we waited 2.5 hours and then the pharmacy sent up the wrong ones. It makes Argos look good!

A Welsh welcome to the English second home owner will soon warm the place up!

Well if you're giving it away, thanks.

To Lucasta, going to the Wars TELL me not, Sweet, I am unkind, That from the nunnery Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind To war and arms I fly. True, a new mistress now I chase, The first foe in the field; And with a stronger faith embrace A sword, a horse, a shield. Yet this inconstancy is such As thou too shalt adore; I could not love thee, Dear, so much, Loved I not Honour more. by Richard Lovelace

Just an aside regarding the music entry to Haberdashers (and Prendergast with whom they share the entrance test), it is based on aural ability that requires no prior musical knowledge. If they score highly on that, they then have to attend an audition which can be singing, or in my daughter's case, a piece she had written for the African drum, so it is fairly inclusive.
