PeckhamRose

I must get round to getting Bluetooth. Means I won't have to get up and leave my beer to find out if my mate's turned up. Drink-spiking possibilities aside - I just don't wanna leave my beer!

Oh yeah, so I edited my post. Still don't understand but that's me! SeanMacGabhann Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > PR > > The clue is in the title of the thread

I'm confused.

Thanks. What WAS the worst spelling error? PeckhamRise? Ummmm Nope, can't imagine. and cdonline you could have just deleted that friend! SeanMacGabhann Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I like your thinking PeckhamRose > > edited for worst spelling error possible

My talent.

Well, that killed fifteen minutes of my time. Not quite sure I should have been party to it all though. Still, time for me tea.

I like Facebook but don't use my own name - not even PeckhamRose before you look - and I tell friends I am hooking up with who I am and delete any photos people hook me up with. It is useful for knowing what is going on in music or some event like a theatre and so on as people can create a group for that particular play. I know it can give one (not me, of course) a reason to be more paranoid if you find you have not had a poke for a week..... or wondering why no-one has written on your wall.... but then we're addicted to the net and emails, aren't we? What DID they do before telephones by the way?

This may be of use. http://www.peckhamvision.org/ Or not.

I attended a community Police Ward panel the other day at Harris Girls School. The chair is the post office man from Forest Hill Road, Nilesh. The station will close. But not till a replacement site is found. Stop panicking. You shall be served by a better more modern police force in a more modern station. What's more worrying is the WAY the police are being told to serve us, not the buildings they shall serve from. Remember how the doctors surgeries sprung up? All nice modern converted banks and the like. Ahem.

Councillor Kim Humphreys, Conservative, Southwark Council. bbbbbrrrrrrrrrr makes me shiver just to type his name the creepy career politician.

OK I just wrote the following in the Globe forum so technically it was off topic. But since a few of you have suggested you do go to the theatre now and again, may I suggest we use THIS topic to recommend plays to the rest of us? Do go see the fascinating and imaginative and great fun version of Salome at Pentameters in Hampstead. I have nothing to do with this production. Except one of the actors was in my play before! Also, there's a futuristic version of Measure for MEasure at Players Theatre Villiers Street next month if you want to google that and check it out.

Really? Then go see the fascinating and imaginative and great fun version of Salome at Pentameters in Hampstead. I have nothing to do with this production. Also, there's a futuristic version of Measure for MEasure at Players Theatre Villiers Street next month if you want to google that and check it out. I have nothing to do with that one either.

Agree with what ct Wrote: "Bob, eating well might not be expensive, but eating poorer quality food is less costly" and also our time is arranged differently these days, specially those with kids who earn very low wages and mortgages. it's all very well spouting right ons tuff but some of you are being a bit patronising and are clearly totally unaware of the living situations for the bottom 75% of the population. Of COURSE they would eat more healthily and better if they had education, time, money, (YES money). Still, I suppose they could stop smoking but could they afford the time to queue on a Saturday at the organic meat shop on Lordship Lane. Maybe they'll all start stealing chickens from the likes of Chav's back yard and the govt will have to bring in new laws to stop people stealing chickens from people's back yards..... Be a bit more realistic would you - some of you - please? Right, gas mark 6 for 2 hours, make sure all those bugs in the chicken are dead, and my breasts are coming along nicely thank you.....!

I hated that TV show about photographers which is a sort of reality TV Click Factor type show to find photographers and eliminate people and humiliate people. I just wanted to see the photographs! All the nonsense spouted by the judges was dreadful.

This is why I LOVE LONDON!!! So much to see and do. This is why I LOVE MOTORCYCLES. Busses everywhere blocking everything. Can't wait to see this Festival as I missed it last year (I think there was one last year!)

I've been away a day and come back to this. My neighbour made bread and sold us neighbours fresh baked bread for a quid or something and it was so yummy but now she is not doing it anymore but won't get rid of the breadmaker. I've had to go back to Ayres in Nunhead and their bread's gone up to ?1.54. Nice though. Neighbour got her breadmaker for FREE off Freecycle. I think I want a breadmaker but I ain't paying for a new one! Plus, with the regularly used coffee machine (cappuccino AND espresso AND filter), blender (yogurt and fresh fruit, or veg soup, for example) and juicer (love that), I don't have much room in the kitchen! Yet now I shall check on Freecycle and ebay to see if there are any breadmakers going. There is nothing quite like freshly baked chemical and additive free bread. With home made soup. It's working from home don't you know.

OMG i think you're being serious. My flat, ?17.00 each and you get to stroke the cat and have free 2nds and 3rds coffee refills. seanmlow Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Went there last night - great place for a quick > meal! > > Me and a mate had a burger each, shared chips, and > two drinks - ?20! bargain!

Repeating question: Can we have a welcome room? Welcome new folk. Your life as you knew it is over. Welcome to the forum. ;)

It may have been Monday morning when you wrote it, but this is a very good idea for all of us and will be read at all tikmes of day and night! And yes, it has to be moderated so no-one can get away with writing vindictive nonsense ;) I think it's a great idea because it can only benefit the shops and services concerned when they learn what they're feedback is and act accordingly. gerry Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > You are very organised and efficient and your > ideas are good.

mightyroar, if it's been said once it's been said twice. We childfree folk are NOT against kids. We're just tired of having to share space time and energy surrounded by loud noisy undisciplined offspring of parents who think it's perfectly acceptable for their kids to be loud noisy undisciplined running around as if every pub restaurant (bus) they were in were a playground. If parents want to take their kids to the pub at 11 at night when the pub is full of us drunk loud foul-mouthed adults, well as long as the kids are quiet and well behaved we don't care!

Above mentioned black sheep when he was a lamb. This was his first day out the barn and the first to greet him was Eric the llama. Awwwwwwwwwhttp://farm3.static.flickr.com/2140/2175303122_c09ec889f9.jpg?v=0 And I promise this one is also taken on a film camera! 35mm being very still and patient. Taken at my Californian Aunt's back yard (10 acres of forest!) http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2013/2174514583_ed2fafafc4.jpg?v=0 Told you I love heights. This was flying home from San Francisco. Not open cockpit though! Back to work.... http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2187/2175304378_f035afda36.jpg?v=0 And this one? Well, this was taken on a trip to Ian the llama owning friend, who lives in middle of nowhere in the High pennines with his four llamas and 7 cats and a full freezer(!) http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2132/2174513461_4946a664a9.jpg?v=0

Can I make a suggestion because this could get all geuinely confusing. Why don't we have a section called LOCAL SHOPS AND BUSINESSES in ALPHABETICAL ORDER - OUR OPINIONS Then ALL our thoughts about each service shop or business could go in the relevant section. Can we also include LIBRARIES in that alpha list? I needed a copy of Chekov's Cherry Orchard. The library said that not ONE library in the WHOLE OF SOUTHWARK Libraries had it. Went into Chener Books. ?1.90. job done. Edited to add: And if this new section was added - it would either go into it or be a subsection of Wanted. Recommendations or something?

I LOVE this one, and my mate Ian in Cumbria raised this sheep as the sheep's mummy died giving birth. But BlackSheep got adopted by the llamas - llamas are very protective of sheep. COuldn't stop him becoming Ian's dinner one day though. How we laughed. That bloody sheep gave me more bruises on my shins so clearly deserved to be dinner. Nice pix yourself Mockney! http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2117/2175218970_95419488e9.jpg?v=0
