Peckhamgatecrasher

I saw a pair of jays in Peckham Rye Park yesterday. They were having great fun chasing each other around on the ground in short hops Wonder if they're the same pair?

*shudders*

Has 'Mistress' left the English lexicon?

Are you saying you swing both ways, Brendan?

Eat your heart out - they demolished the beautiful Peckham Bus Garage with nary a hiccough.

Ach - we've a game in hand.

I take it all back, re pilot scheme, apparently it hasn't started yet. Email received: Thank you for your email. I have submitted a request for a kitchen caddy to be sent to you, and you will receive this before the scheme goes live in October. Your reference number for this request is xxxxxxx. You will receive a letter the week before the scheme begins advising you of your collection day, and you will also receive a calendar ...

You are Stanley Owen Green and I claim my 30 bob.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the scheme - I have received a letter and my brown bin was left in my path this morning. I have not however received any bags which one is supposed to put food waste into. I've contacted the Southwark website independently, but if the Council don't deliver the bags, I think the pilot scheme will fail.

Oh but Prince Albert has a nice ring about it.

Scraping the barrel if you're lauding it over four and twenty virgins!

In vino veritas!

I passed a temporary hydrant that was merrily flowing down the main road this afternoon - just past Rydale, that might account for it.

A whole Brie cheese - that's what I missed most during pregnancy (and liver - but that's not to everyone's taste!). Maybe a spa day voucher? Something to look forward to when she's recovered. Or if you want to be more personal, make a personalised baby sitting voucher to be redeemed when she's confident leaving the baby so she and hubby can get some time together. Or if you really want to splash out - maybe a week's worth of dinners that can be frozen so she/hubby don't have to think about what to do for supper.

Wash your mouth out!

"I have a bit of west ham in me ..." Harrumph! *adds MacGabhann to little black book*

@ Louisiana: that's more likely to be fox poo - cat's nearly always cover their offering.

Fair 'nuff!

I've been blubbing all day long. Great coverage by the TV channels. I salute the heroes, heroines, ordinary folk.

Are there truly going to be chair lifts - like a bosun's thingammyjig? What larks!

But it's the London Games!

Sean for Catweazle!

It was let slide because we don't want to encourage the tripetty trapetty folk.

Naval Oceanography Command Detachment? Or are you trying to say Non U but not quite getting it?
