Doubledeckers Follyfoot The Cricket on BEEB Top of the Pops (I know those last two are cheats but I like 'em)

Book Aid International take text books - don't know if there's a local drop off (020 7733 3577 www.bookaid.org) also www.shareafrica.com also www.educationforall.com

Even more fun would be to redirect the post back to Foxtons!

Sorry to burst a bubble re Chopsticks, but when I dined there last summer I was sitting outside with a plum view into the kitchen: a member of staff had a huge plastic tray of frozen fish and was dropping it onto the floor to break the contents up. As expected, the frozen mass eventually broke and scattered all over the floor. Said staff member scooped it all up from floor and put it back in the tray, no doubt to be used for future meals. Put me off somewhat, and I've never been back.

*Was mischievously thinking of the original group but am allergic to pepper spray so perhaps should form an alliance with MP and stick to Mantovani. Whisky and water very good for soothing/hair of dog - tentatively offers some to DM ..."

Creeps nervously into room as only a newbie upstart can, clutching large bottle of Laphraoig and wonders if she can slip "I Ran (So Far Away)" on the turntable?

Shame on you Brendan - I followed your link and can't get out of my head now an image of TJ looking remarkably like Ian Botham - v. scary. Is there an equivalent word for a visual image one can't dispel?

I'm neither wealthy or jealous (well only a little). I would just like to remind those of privilege that with it comes responsibility: that means tiring of your White Stuff garb v. quickly and off-loading it to the charity shop so I may indulge. PS - I went into WS yesterday, perfectly affable staff, good layout, swish changing rooms, inoffensive clothing and a plus for Lordship Lane.

";;;", !::.?

Is Alan Dale and Littlejohn in the same thread a coincidence or have I stepped into olde Nottingham??

I recently spotted Tom, Tom in Lordship Lane - or is this on an existing thread?

I'll have you know Mr Bleep that Bellenden Road rocks. Why, it even houses Mr Anthony Gormley's studio, that great artist who has deposited wonderful sculptures all around this sceptered isle and bequeathed Bellenden Road with rusty, somewhat phallic, bollards!

Intrigued Bleep - I though reading on the loo was a fairly safe occupation - did you tear out pages as an emergency measure?

Would that be the missing Lord Lucan seen dandling a girl on each knee in Mauritius?

Is it that James Nesbitt bloke again?

It sounds rather painful, but each to his own.

Anyone want a diversion in the form of the Peckham Hunt? Hunting pink and Manolo Blahniks de rigeur ... Foxes known to reside in St John's churchyard. Tally Ho.

A tautology surely - drinks are always merry!

I'm nailing my colours firmly to the telegraph pole!

Ur is historic old city - where Abraham (aka Abram) came from. To = go + Ur = Tour

"Liddle might not be David Beckham, but I wouldn't say he was less famous than Stephen Frost." Sorry - have come to this thread rather late. I know who SF is and think he's v.v. funny and probably respect him. Despite 'Googling' Rod Liddle, still have no real idea who he is. Perhaps I'm too lowbrow (don't worry - appointment with beautician made). Also, UC, despite Scottish antecedants, wee means smelly, nasty australian wine-coloured substance in my book (this after afternoon spent babysitting friend's screaming brat). Also, (vocalbuary [and spelling] somewhat challenged after too much E&Gallo plonk) saw woman late of "Casualty" in Sainsburys where she was v. sweet to my star-struck daughter.

I'm up for nicking DM's old handbag if it could be loosely nailed please. (Lulu Guinness in pink for preference DM).

Hi Who is Eva May Davies? Google let me down. thanks
