How vulgar of you, Snorky. I sip my coffee from a bone china cup with matching saucer. Can't be doing with tea - it's disgusting.

Anyone else follow the link from the Guardian OBO to the Abbey Road Crossing Cam? Strangely compulsive viewing.

People wanting sponsorship - Have I been conned?
Peckhamgatecrasher replied to 2Sheds's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I was approached by a young Asian girl (not Japanese) last week in a local shop, and asked for sponsorship for Japan. I declined because that is my default position, and because she wasn't very articulate about what it was for. However, I didn't suspect a scam. -
No I love him. Bean is my favourite.

Help to decide about the name for my Beauty room!
Peckhamgatecrasher replied to little-berries's topic in The Lounge
What about "The Beauty Room"? Says what it does on the tin, non? -
Fortunately we just had a family bet. I lost 20p on Ocean War. Cocky little jockey what? Great finish but if I was his trainer I'd haul him over the coals for standing/pulling before crossing the line.

Miss Anthropes regrets she is unable to lunch today.

I have a large blue wheelie bin for recycling. It is full to bursting each week (there are two flats using it) so a fortnightly collection would be a nightmare. The green wheelie bin can stand fortnightly collection as can the brown gardening/food bin. The brown one is only brimming a couple of times a year after garden tidy ups. Certainly not enough food waste generated to justify weekly collection.

Well done. I'll get me hat.

We could arrange an ersatz Viking funeral at Dulwich park for you - just nick a stray dog to lie at your feet. Gives a whole new meaning to: "Come in number 17, your time is up."

I knew it! She's a mad woman - turn your back for two seconds and you'll be in a brown paper package tied up with string.

A RosieH has thorns. Marry me Ted.

Cricket anyone?

I must admit to a slight wobble this morning when I walked across Goose Green: there were two pairs of shoes just abandoned.

I'm back from work. I'm ready for my Rapture, Mr de Mille.

I love Hastings. I learned to ride there. It used to be full of wonderful old second hand book shops; the pier had old penny slot machines and I won a towel at the Bingo. Winkles were second to none. Cliffs were great for scrambling over, and until it went nudist, Fairlight Cove was worth the struggle to get there. If it's gone Guardian, I shall mourn it.

I can't join in - I'm currently reading "Little House on the Prarie".

Looking for someone in Dulwich
Peckhamgatecrasher replied to NY_Ben's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I can roll my rrrs - how much more do you want? -
How sweet that they embrace the beautiful paisley pattern - perhaps they should have paid attention in history lessons.

maaxi, I think you need the thread on Surrey Docks Farm. I can't do The Rapture this Saturday, I'm working.

Lending stuff on the forum: Was I just unlucky ?
Peckhamgatecrasher replied to ed_pete's topic in The Lounge
I've lent things, even to strangers on the Forum - never had any probs. Equally, I've borrowed things (eg travel cot) and been v. grateful. It's a shame that you've been burned, but don't be put off. It's what makes the virtual virtous and engenders community. [did I really write that wanky sentence?] -
There is a superb window display at Mind at the mo (elephant in the room). Thanks for the tip H - I need a good cook book.

New proposed crossings & parking on LL.
Peckhamgatecrasher replied to karter's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I'm still concerned that crossing ED Grove will be a problem, unless there is a delay on traffic turning right, which will give pedestrians a chance to get across safely. Actually that doesn't make sense, unless the traffic lights for the new crossing are put on the north side of the yellow box but I doubt that will happen.
