Oh dear, DM, it must have been catastrophic. Were the last pair of Jimmy Choo's in the sale snatched before your very eyes? Never mind, just feast your eyes on the Bavarian Boy and remind yourself that at least sartorial elegance cannot be wrested from you.

Mixes pitcher and offers other shoulder to Hayesgrover. Now then, DM, tell your aunty PGC all about it. A problem shared and all that.

Ah girl - The Beatles

Proffers stiff gin martini and broad shoulder.

Keef, I would have happily let it go except for the fact that she bragged she was top of her class. God help those at the bottom. Asset, I possess three dictionaries and not one of them cites 'independant' as an alternative spelling.

I thought the official apocryphal version was that they escaped from the set of "The African Queen".

Do any of you actually use the current library? If you did, you would know it is staffed by some lovely people who mostly are quite charming (the one glum one - you know who you are); it is patronised by a mix of people but at the times I attend, it is usually school children doing homework/research; it does not have a huge stock but the staff will happily obtain books from another library, or for a small fee, will order them; they will recommend books and all in all I think it is quite satisfactory. I fear that what happened at Peckham (a perfectly adequate portacabin with lovely staff moved into a fancy building with no character and aresholes who weren't previously bothered by a book coming out of the woodwork) will happen here too. [sorry - I had a Louisa moment there]

But you would bump into Icarus on his way down and hurtle to earth, a sticky mass. I wish it were summer

We all live in a yellow submarine - Beatles (sorry Atila - couldn't resist)

But then you'd be managing Newcastle. I wish my parents had bought me a pony ...

Don't go on the ferry more than once or you will be sick of "Ferry, cross the Mersey" and will want to wipe out the whole crew with an Uzi.

Perhaps a dictionary would be better than a tv in the bedroom: independant.
