  1. Who bought all the copies? My newsagent said he had run out by 9 am this morning.
  2. I'd second AC's suggestion with modifications. Use Kir or liqueur of choice rather than vinegar. Get the meringues from Andersons(?) on Bellenden Road - absolutely scrumptious and cheaper than elsewhere. And just whipped double cream will do. Voila - a posh Eton Mess.
  3. While you're fired up, George, do you think you could get the cricket back on terrestrial tv please?
  4. 'Is it not?' Come on Alan M., you can't be that square.
  5. I hate to draw attention to the D.Mail, but they have a low down on four peeps who followed the diet. Three seem to be for it, one against. Dieticians seem to be against other than for a short-term kick, as a heavily protein-biased diet is not seen as a very healthy option.
  6. Do I have to lose three trombones?
  7. Have you been going through my bins, Loz?
  8. 'Mentee' What ignorant arse started that one?
  9. Southbank good for a wander. Start at Westminster Bridge and mooch up to London Bridge - lots to see on the way and as cheap or expensive as you want to make it.
  10. Can you post the proposed design on here? I couldn't access the plan. I love seeing kids play cricket on the lower end, it would be a shame if that were stopped.
  11. It doesn't cost anything to join a library. If you go on the Southwark Council website, they have a library section which will probably tell you what id you need.
  12. Alas no, it sounds wonderful. (Are you quite sure it didn't answer to the name of Captain Flint?) The best I've ever seen is someone walking their ferret on a collar and lead round Peckham Rye Park.
  13. Kwik cricket might the the way forward for one so young. You can even start your own team. Best to stick to underarm bowling at this age - too much overarm can cause shoulder/back problems. Kwik Cricket
  14. I certainly shall, pommie, that's the least of my civic duties. He's an old chap who derives a great deal of pleasure from his dogs, and doesn't ill treat them (in my opinion). However, possibly he doesn't understand the instinct that terriers have and I will happily point this out and suggest ways of curtailing that urge.
  15. Always suspected H. was a bot.* *in the traditional sense of the word of course.
  16. There was I digging a hole - B Cribbens Fire - Crazy World of Arthur Brown Daisy Daisy - Trad.
  17. pommie, I think the reference to him hitting the dog was him trying to get the dog off the cat. It's not his usual behaviour to them. And can I just comment that while what happened was terrible and he needs to be reeducated with regard to the dogs (who by the way are absolutely fine with children), I have always found him a very affable chap and I'm becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the witch hunty tone of this thread.
  18. While high viz is good for other road users to spot the cyclist, research has been done that wearing high viz/helmet, etc gives the rider a feeling of invulnerability and they do not ride as carefully/defensively as they should. I will try and find the research but it was some years ago that I was looking into it when my daughter first started cycling on roads.
  19. Best War film : Went the day well/Colditz Best Action film: Three Days of the Condor Best Martial Arts film: Karate Kid I Best Thriller: Day of the Jackal Best Gangster film: The Long Good Friday/Get Carter Best Horror: The Wicker Man
  20. Got the dressage! Woo hoo!
  21. Shaolin Soccer? Where can I get me a copy - love that title.
  22. According to my mother, in the 1950s the Parkie used to hide in the bushes and jump out at cyclists going too fast - apparently a valid sport back then.
  23. Please say it isn't so otherwise I'll have to change my lifestyle based on this press report
  24. Au contraire, naysayers. I would be thrilled to get dressage tickets.
