Should Sharon Osbourne Ever Be Allowed On TV Again?
PeckhamRose replied to Loz's topic in The Lounge
Ohhhhhhhh my hasn't she had some work done! -
For what it is worth I thought you may be interested that I recently wrote to the company that runs the 484 and asked them if they would consider dipping in to Sainsburys as part of its route. They said no, absolutely not, nuh uh, you must be joking. What they actually also said was that they felt their customers would be irritated at the extra time on the route. Oh dear. It would not take THAT long, would it? And anyway, it would add custom for people who - well, who want to shop at sainsburys!

37 Bus Route - good and bad comments please
PeckhamRose replied to James Barber's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I do not often have to use it but concur that its frequency does leave a lot to be desired. -
Yeah, any professional accountants or anyone who can understand them, members of EDF so they can tell us what we can't see?!

I'm recording the series. That way I can skip through the 90% of drivel. Mud were fun, though.

WHy should people control sex drives? It's a natural thing to feel, so by exploring it, we're only do harm to those who feel harm has been done. Fatal Attraction taught us so much! She was mad*, of course, he still loved his wife. He just wanted sex. * I know, I know.

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy or to be precise to very observant MrPR Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!! And yes, since you chose the beer thing, a beer would be lovely! -
The problem is each member of the polyamorous group has to constantly check their feelings. Are they just a bit jealous when she gets more attention than the other one? Or something. There are such relationships within not just the Mormon religion (although apparently illegal, it does occur in some small communities in Utah), but also in some BDSM relationships (Dominant/submissive relationships) there are often such relationships. I certainly don't have an issue with it. I think it's quite a natural thing, specially if there are no children involved (research shows kids who grew up in kibbutzes were not as happy as their parents were at being brought up by a lot of people).

There's a food that could help with cellulite? I'll order lots. I hope it's ice cream. -
Revamp to Denmark Hill station
PeckhamRose replied to Katy Tonbridge's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
The important issue is that people who can't do stairs will be able to now get to King College Hospital. Hoorah! -
He was very helpful, nette, which is why I started the thread, for people to be helpful and useful for all of us who know not much about such matters. So I popped along to John lewis yesterday and got lots of prices and info. Then I wandered to the iPad section. I was rather amused and delighted and wondered if I could justify it. iPad3 will be in shops in December. Meanwhile, I have registered for a free lesson in their useage at Apple in Regent Street. Dear Santa... Once again thanks so much for your words of advice people. I know from PMs I have got that other people have got help too. As I said, this was meant to be an info and help thread for all of us! Please feel free to ask questions people, others may be able to help and advise like they have done for me!

There was a female tribute to them (honest) called ASheDShe. Saw AC/DC at HammyOdeon. Loved them, still play them! (From the vinyl of course!)

I may live on the SE15 side of the park but the racket that often wakes me up in the mornings of the dawn chorus means the cats are indeed rubbish and they're not killing enough birds. When my cat sees a pigeon on the balcony she runs back in the house. Truly embarrassing. But. If you insist on saving the bird things (and MrPR is a member of the RSPB which is plain wrong) put a collar with a bell on the cat.

Thank you muchly for everything. Hugely appreciated. Thinking things through.

"I would say that there has been a huge growth in fetishising chilis over the last 10 years or so though, i never really saw it as a cultural phenomenon in the way that it has become now. " Does that have anything to do with the infamous Simpsons episode?

All junctions should be treated as if there is a yellow box there; ie don't enter it if your exit is not clear or you will cause obstruction when the traffic starts moving from the other way. The fact so many idiot car drivers don't have the common sense to realise that, means they need a little bit of help by painting a yellow box there. If they then "rake it in" as a result, good for them. In some cases car drivers did successfully claim against the council's fines because they could not see the end of some yellow box junctions, and it was thus considered unfair. This was upheld and now councils have to be more reasonable where they place them. But that is not the case here. Do not enter yellow (or ANY junction) if you can not see that your exit is clear. What's your problem?

sainsbury's van lost in peckham rye park
PeckhamRose replied to puzzled's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Satnavs eh? Pahhh I live on the Nunhead side of Peckham Rye and came across a car round the back of Torridge Gardens. The driver asked me where the cafe was in the park as their satnav had told them to come down Torridge Gardens. I said, couldn't you see the park on your right as you drove up here? TYhey said they had. I said, did you not see the road leading IN to the park? They said yes. -
In the mid eighties there were no bollards down Peckham Rye East side. No zebra crossing either. But neither was there a traffic lights at the junction with East Dulwich Road. Also also one was able to get from Nunhead to Somerton/Waveney without having to use that busy crossroads, so traffic moved more easily to get where we needed to go. Then the side roads were closed off to traffic so everyone had to get to that junction. It became busier so traffic lights were put in. We begged them at that time to put a right filter light in, but after years and years they are finally asking us if we'd like that right filter light put in. They didn't ask us about all the other stuff done in the past! I do hope lots of you will vote on these forms.

Um, no. "Rose's original supplier wss a shop that sells office equipment. They don't manufacture computers I'm afraid. She had a Toshiba and so it's likely they would have arrived installed with the OEM software. " I originally said on page one, "My current laptop is a Toshiba but was put together by E&M as above; ie 6 month old versions of various bits all put together in one laptop at about half the price (maybe that's why they went out of business!) I think they call it 'reconditioned'?"
-
And I am mighty grateful acm. To be fair, I use Word, Excel, Outlook Express and that's it. And if I bought something else how would I get everything on THIS to the New one? And E&M did everything legal. probably why they went out of business..... I need face to face not interface) meeting with a specialist but will kill more puppies rather than go to PC World.

Well it's a good discussion but I am not going for election, indeed have just voted myself on my voting forms for the governors. I believe it's every three years, I may be in a better place then to reconsider. including reconsidering whether I could do a better job than those already in post!

The problem is being able to read my older documents, scripts etc, on that Word software. Which reminds me, someone asked to read an old script of mine. I searched on this and my old laptop then realised it was still on 3.5 inch disc!
