  1. My beef is that I live less than 100 yards from the end of the zone. At tricky times (school drop off/pick up/funerals/weddings) I often park in Ondine. Why does the top half of Ondine Road even come into station commuter parking - it's nowhere near it? Since this will have a knock on effect on Adys Road, I cynically predict that our street will become a CPZ after not very long.
  2. Guy in there told me his boss had told him they would be there for three months then back to Brighton.
  3. Please, someone put me out of my misery - this has been bugging me for days.
  4. Aha! Tis true, I've only been on board for the last two series. Anyone want to lend me the boxed sets then?
  5. Can anyone tell me what Mr Darcy was doing at the end of Spooks yesterday? Most distracting from my sobfest.
  6. 'That' question follows the word If. I assumed that wasn't a foregone conclusion. If it is, I'd like the chance to change my response too. @James Barber You said it would become a problem with increased number of house fronts being paved over. Surely dropped kerbs are subject to planning permission from the Council at which point it would be easy for permission to be denied.
  7. Thanks for the heads up Moos. I didn't really pay much attention to this thread as I naively thought the streets affected were near the station. This proposal would have a huge impact on my street and no doubt would be next in the council's sights.
  8. I bagsy the Grosvenor Square gaff. I'll even pay the congestion charge.
  9. I was part of the pilot scheme and did point this out in another thread somewhere.
  10. Cheap cat litter in small bowls on windowsill.
  11. "... this road has been a Rat run for many years and now there are hundreds of School Kids crossing the road it is very dangerous." Super! If this is valid criteria, can we have Adys Road blocked off please?
  12. I scored a rubbish 17. I want a steward's on Q.20 - what about the Domesday Book?
  13. I have a lovely image of a chap with a tail. Probably not wise to let a total stranger into your house; even if he is genuine, better to err on the safe side.
  14. Not unless I've missed it too. I understand why she wants to stay put, but morally she doesn't have a leg to stand on.
  15. I know a volatile Esther. Does that make me a sommeliere?
  16. The historian becomes history.
  17. I want this as my epitaph: "Bottled beer led her astray".

  19. It was opposite a place called Marco's - dunno if that's PMW's gaffe.
  20. Here you go, red devil, the 1950's Glaswegian Variation: Potatoes Swedes (neeps) Carrots all cut into large pieces Small onion chopped Sausages* Add water and seasoning, simmer in open pan until liquid nearly absorbed. (Pour off excess liquid into jug if veg cooked before evaporation. Keep handy in case you go too far - you don't want mushy and you don't want bone dry.) Skin sausages and cut everything into bite size pieces. Mix together. Serve in bowl with lashings of brown sauce. *use lamb chops for high days and holidays. When you've mastered that, we'll tackle mince and tatties.
  21. That's disgusting RedD. I'll get you my mum's recipe.
  22. Sophie, EDs do a metal kitchen caddy. Or there are lots of alternatives online. They are far prettier for the kitchen than the brown caddies.
  23. Trip to Tate Britain anyone?
