Become the unicorn of your neighborhood How lovely to become a mythical creature that is associated with virgins, with soft curly hair and spouting a huge horn........ oh I see NO that is just plain rude.... Filthy swines ::o

Last year I flew with Thompson Airways and I have to say that I would christen that Airline "Chav Airways" as it was basically full of them... so my suggestion for your parade is to just hang around at the arrival gates of Gatwick, wait for Thompson to arrive from Mah-Ga-Loft or similar and parade with them all as they come out... Fake tans a necessary addition as it will blend in nicely with their 'redness' or peeling skins also don't forget to carry a DOM-KEI(That is how they pronounce it, talk really slowly and loudly so that you can be understood anywhere in the world and have a dozen screaming kids under each arm... Why go out of your way to fund a parade when there are at least 40 a day already taking place at this time of year....

As always there are good roads and bad roads in every area and also good parts of roads and bad parts. Personally I would say that you seemed to experience all the bad parts on one day... but it is still worth going back and looking again at different times of day (and evening) to see if it was just unlucky. I would say, that if your main concerning is the rail link to Blackfriars then it is easy to also live in East Dulwich near the Number 12 bus route, Number 37, Number 197, 63 and 363 and still be at Peckham Rye station in a matter of minutes so don't limit your search based on just how close you are to Peckham Rye Station. Peckham is one of those areas that is organically regenerating and I would expect in a few years time that things will look a whole lot different from today. (much like how Lordship lane reinvented itself a few years ago)

As for asking a ladies age, and said lady telling you it's rude to ask, that normally implies they are over 40 but hope you don't spot it, however I suspect in KK's case... I bet she is younger then the stock answer (which is normally quoted as "'29' ya cheeky s*d" by most women I know)

Is it a free range cockerel do you think ? ;-) Personally I would welcome hearing such a wonderful early morning wake up call, it is nature at it's best and if someone is keeping one then they are more then likely doing it to increase the laying capacity of their chickens or maybe they are breeding chickens... Be careful that you don't harm the bird (tsk tsk only me!) as the RSPCA may well have something to say about it... after all chickens have rights too... (unless they are in a cage, having their beaks removed and grown to enourmous sizes to satisfy the supermarket masses (6))

I have to say, this does bring up a favourite gripe of mine concerning Supermarkets and Organic / Free range goods In the worlds before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order.** and the Supermarkets hadn't domintated the high streets yet. At this time, almost everyone bought free range food as mass production of most products was limited. Then Supermarkets came along and helped drive the mass production and farm production of our beloved products (like Chickens) to ensure that they bought at a low price, sold at a good profit but still cheaper then the local butchers and hence satisfied their customers demands for more and cheaper...(thus ensuring dominance of the High Street) Yet now that we have wisened up to the issues around factory and intense farming, the supermarkets are starting to realise that there is a market for Organic and Free Range, which they can load a premimum price on despite the fact that they were instrumental in killing the free range farms in the first place.. Isn't this a case of having your chicken and eating it for the Supermarkets... Coupled with that, it is often cheaper to shop locally then the Supermarkets, stimulating local trade and the local economy and helping to foster a sense of community (this is almost the same issue as we the consumer are being penalised for producing waste in the form of redundant packaging, yet the Supermarkets are the ones responsible for packing the goods... shouldn't they be made to pay to have waste removed or for better recycling facilities !!! - Bring back paper carrier bags I say) RANT - RAVE - RANT - and Breath in for 30 hold and out for 30 and in again and :X ** Full Quote In the worlds before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order. But the phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, As endless aeons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of Heaven, the moisture of the Earth, the powers of the sun and the moon All worked upon a certain rock, old as creation. And it became magically fertile. That first egg was named "Thought". Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha, said, "With our thoughts, we make the world." Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it then came a stone monkey. The nature of Monkey was irrepressible!

Where the Haart is of course !!!

I personally use R Woodfall Opticians (183 Rye Lane and also Nunhead) very slightly more then Specsavers in terms of cost, but customer attention is second to none... and they also have time to correctly prescribe glasses / contact lenses if your eyes have any slight differences from the norm (and I am not just talking short or Long Sighted) Well worth poping into this family run business to see how they can help you and what a difference personal service makes ...

Came across this real life 'Assassins Creed' video and thought it had to be shared... Wait until 14 seconds or so in ... There are some right strange people out there... :-S Love the lady who claims "He is creeping me out"... she knows the truth when she sees it !!!

Asset Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I WAS using the Pulse, unlike the other tossers > filling up the spaces. > Hi Asset and All There was a problem with the parking in the pulse whereby people would just abandon their cars for the day in non designated parking spaces, disabled bays or on the pathway leading from the carpark to the Pulse entrance. This was causing problems for disabled drivers and pedestrians and as such Southwark Council, in agrement with the Pulse, has now started enforcing using clamps to stop misuse of these areas. This is to enable pedestrians to flow freely around the footpaths without the fear that they had previously of being run over by people driving and parking in areas that they shouldn't be. It also means that only genuine disabled users can use the disabled bays. It does mean, however, that some drivers feel that they have been caught in a money-making scheme, when they park outside of designated bays, which is unfortunate as the car park is heavily used by patrons of the pulse and it makes it harder to park there when there are so few spaces, but ultimately it is for the good of pedestrians, disabled drivers and genuine users of the pulse that the council installed these measures. As far as the Peckham Town Centre Management Group has been able to assertain, this has made a dramatic and welcomed difference to the parking problem that existed this time last year.

Have a look at the document on the PTCMG Website, it is a cookbook and cost comparison of dishes made at the Flava's of Peckham Festival in 2006, and whilst it is now almost 2 years old, it does show an amazing difference in cost for ingredients when shopping locally vs. shopping in a Supermarket.

My neighbour has a large bush which grows outside her passage Whenever it is damp and I go up her passage I get a very wet and bush wacked head Whilst this can be a pleasant experience, I sometimes just want to shoot in quickly without having to duck my head in her bush first. :-S

Sorry to quote but Max Miller "I was walking along this narrow mountain pass - so narrow that nobody else could pass you, when I saw a beautiful blonde walking towards me. A beautiful blonde with not a stitch on, yes, not a stitch on, lady. Cor blimey, I didn't know whether to toss myself off or block her passage." Still love it and still don't know why it got him banned from Radio when he did it live on air !!!

Just to make everyone who is at work paranoid until they get home At Lunchtime today, I witnessed the DVLA tax van driving around the streets of East Dulwich looking for untaxed vehicles. It has a camera on each corner and uses Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to pinpoint any vehicle that isn't taxed according the the DVLA database... I expect that there will be a few irate people later today when they come home to find their car clamped I love modern technology (6)

I was at a conference a while ago with a work colleague and he turned up late and consequently sat at the back of the room, in the break I called out to him to come and join me at the front to which he replied "No thanks, I prefer it up the rear" :-$ It doesn?t get better then real life !!!

Charlie Contact the local SNT and see if they can help, even if they don't do anything directly they can discuss the matter with the Schools Officer who is assigned to your son's school to see if the boy who threatened them has any previous incidents... if so then the schools officer will be able to discuss this with the school directly and make appropriate recomendations.

It is good to see that you are ENTERING THE MASS DEBATE in the spirit it was inteneded for however there is a nice pair shown already and I hope to see a few more rammed in down the bottom before it explodes (Does damn good Sydney James laugh at this point)

I am getting a mite fed up with the threads that talk openly about men and women's bits on this forum at the moment (hides behind handbag and says "ohhhhhhhh") So I thought I would try something a little more subtle !! A conversation made up of Innuendos rather then being blatant and open like some other conversations Rules are quite simple, only conversations containing innuendos are allowed, no actual rude words or direct references to body parts unless they are part of an innuendo - Let's keep it clean but very much in the vein of a good Carry on film (Maybe this should be called "carry on giving decent 'ED") So to start you off? "I thought I would slip a quick one in to see how big it gets before it gets deflated again" Yours LuvPeckham (AKA Mary Whitehouse)

No Evil

The Rye Hotel is close in my opinion, but only 2 guest ales at any one time ... rest is good food, wine and conversation (and Star and Leffe and ....) Welcome to ED OZ
