  1. Oh, that's OK then
  2. Heroes. It was nice of the Luftwaffe to drop incendiaries on them while they were doing the rescue Yes where is shorty?

    The Patch

    Could somebody please start an interesting thread? The Camberwick Green thing is on next door. That's how sad it's become
  4. Here we go again The goose that laid the golden thread
  5. Channel 4 Toast of London. Oh you'll laugh all right And I've just started Band of Brothers, which I avoided all those years ago. Can't speak for the rest of it but the first two episodes were seriously exciting
  6. I wouldn't belong to any club Club that would have me have me as a member Member
  7. Correct. You are absolutely right. Yup, can't argue with that.
  8. "I will once again re-iterate." Isn't that tautology all over again?
  9. Newbies having a half hearted ding dong Not much to see here
  10. What I would like to know is why it was demolished. Even if it was an unhygienic maternity wing, it was a great building
  11. My two were born there in the late 80s. The maternity ward was then in the sadly demolished wing

    Great Gigs

    When UFO did the Marquee in the 70s the sound man told me there were a thousand people in there and when he put his hand on the ceiling to steady himself, the sweat was running down his arm
  13. I was once caught shoplifting in Woolworths As I was led to the office, I chucked the booty back on various counters and by the time we got there I was an innocent, slightly indignant school boy Padlocks and a torch
  14. I bought a Tivo box with my Green Shield stamps so I could fast wind through the Twilight bits
  15. Have the turbulent conditions affected your thought patterns ungleglen?
  16. Jah, I think you spelled the first word wrong
  17. I can see one of my pot plants has fallen over. When do you think it will be safe to go outside and straighten it?
  18. I might have to upgrade the breeze warning to 'stiff'
  19. Be careful everyone
  20. The chimney came down through an attic and into the living room in the flat above, where a mother and daughter had been sitting moments before. It filled the entire room and would have killed them. The top of the house had to be rebuilt. My recording studio was in the room under it and I thought I was going to lose the lot. The landlord's contractors who all had walkie talkies were urging me not to go into the room because they thought the ceiling was about to fall in. But my precious Roland 909 had to be saved! I still have it.
  21. There was a twenty piece brassy band at the Ivy last Sunday
  22. Mine's going yellow. It's outside in the garden clay and hasn't produced a grape in four years. It is getting bigger though. I think they don't like clay or compost much. Sand or grit is their thing
  23. Interesting MM. I wonder how many houses a sub reactor might power? Do the sums work? They could put one behind Iceland. Of course it would need a bit of barbed wire but they could put a mural on it
  24. I got served in the end and the beer was great but... I've worked behind busy bars. What you have to do is look the punter in the eye and say, 'Be with you in a minute mate,' and then the customer relaxes, no matter how long it takes. Judging by the trade in the Ivy House today, it's a huge success, but five behind the bar and they couldn't keep up. Nice people but not professionals. Terrific band though. So, after a while we went to the Herne. Three bar staff all of them way too busy to actually serve drinks, mopping the floor, washing glasses, eyes down despite waving my twenty like a semaphore flag for about five minutes. 'I shouldn't be serving behind a bar you know, I've got a degree in psychology,' When I finally got his attention, two pints of Guinness and a Prosecco was sixteen quid. If I want to be ignored I'll stay at home.
