  1. Make a quilt.
  2. Do famous people like to be acknowledged or ignored? I've tried both and feel a bit of a tit in either situation. I sort of assume that they have an overwhelming ego that would be deflated if ignored (that is an unfair generalisation, I know) but everyone deserves to pick up their eggs, milk and athelete's foot cream in peace.
  3. Nearest place is Peckham Police Station. There is a number for SNT on the local info tab on the top right hand of this page, or you could ring the non-emergency number 101.
  4. I was due to go today - thanks for warning. What a bummer, it's my birthday and my daughter was taking me for a treat (it's my favourite museum).
  5. I haven't played knock down ginger for years. Must keep my hand in.
  6. Not even the most partisan, lobotomised fan could expect 8-0. Sorry Piers, but really! If they do it, I'll donate ?50 to a charity of your choice. PS, Bobby Moore was lovely.
  7. I believe maxxi is a local celibate. At least I assume he is continent. And wasn't it Jodie Foster? Can't remember the perp's name though. Unfortunately, that recall just reinforces the cult of celebrity.
  8. As it happens, the CofE incumbent is allowed into your property if you are in his/her parish. (I could be making that up, but I have a vague memory about it.)
  9. Sweetheart, your Przewalski Pie is in the oven. Suspect the love will fizzle out now we've drawn Blackburn.
  10. Love and kisses all round!
  11. How very dare you, RD. I am true to my Otta. SCSB79 merits an eye flutter however.
  12. I heart LadyG but I'm going to marry Otta. Honeymoon at Ibrox, darling?
  13. Brady and Harman - my fave gals.
  14. East Street market generally good.
  15. 'classical 70s jazz' wot? Surely that was a slip of the finger and you meant 30s? Edit: rather a lot of grape juice consumed, think I may have desensitised attena.
  16. Word is: another estate agent next to Nero
  17. Ooo - I love this game! People who go to the shops in their pyjamas and their quoifs...
  18. There is a credit union at the top of Rye Lane. Avoid at all costs the new shop that is opening up in the old Nationwide building in Rye Lane called Oakham*. It says loans start at 400% interest. *ironic considering picking oakum was a punishment for prisoners and workhouses.
  19. From article in today's DM with usual hysterics, but relevant to the validity of the census: When community cohesion officers start calling for border controls, it is probably time for government ministers to acknowledge there is a big problem. In recent days, Boston has found itself in the national headlines for two reasons. First, the latest census figures showed its population has grown by more than 15 per cent to 65,000 in a decade, most of that increase being from Eastern Europe. That, of course, does not include the legion of migrant workers living five-to-a-room who prefer not to fill in the census forms. According to a leading (Left-leaning) academic, there are an additional 4,000-6,000 migrants in town. The council reckons the figure is more like an additional 10,000. Indeed, the census is so unreliable that the Home Office has just despatched a special population research team.
  20. Take your shoes and socks off, run with the goats and ask grandfather to prepare you toasted cheese over the open fire - you will see a nicer side to the Swiss. Beware of jealous goatherds and flying wheelchairs.
  21. A v sharp chisel should do it.
  22. I was terribly confused for a while. I thought it was some arcane football song that I didn't know (like Chelsea and celery) until I read the next thread.
  23. I heart Otta.
  24. Miffed that you don't have cassettes in the mix. Vinyl: Long Haired Lover from Liverpool (I know, I know) CD: Cat Stevens compilation Download: Never done it. The Move on You Tube - does that count?
