  1. Monday Is Looking Freezing ? Or am I barking up the wrong tree here ? You know you are in East Dulwich when you start to loose the plot of a discussion on here
  2. I get vertigo looking up it how freaky is that
  3. I guess this signals then death throws for the fortified wine "Thunderbirds" that first introduced me to throwing up after drinking (6) especially if mixed with Special Brew ::o
  4. At this time of day - Peckham police station
  5. Just got home from an all night drinking session (well a night in a wet area with the other street drinkers anyway) to hear on the news that Alcohol is going to be targeted to stop bogoffs and cheap booze. I am in two minds over this, a minimum price will mean that cheep drink will go up but who gets the extra revenue, the government? or the supermarket / drinks company? and like smokers, people will cut back in other areas to get their alcohol fix rather then cut back / give it up. It is good to tackle the irresponsible drinkers but the argument that alcohol causes 100,000 hospital incidents a year and making it more expensive in supermarkets / shops will cut this number isn't strictly true, granted that some incidents happen at home, but the vast majority happen when people are out drinking (ask any A&E department) so will it make that much of a difference ? It also smacks of Nanny State (and gawd bless her Nanny liked her drink) Oh Heck, have I just posted my first serious point ? I need a drink to get over this now :)-D
  6. such last centry thinking nashoi Corporate naming of public things started with the British Airways London Eye, how much did that cost and how much has it raised since ? I like the idea of something different for London
  7. Loz It the Monster Raving Looney Party were fielding a mayoral candidate then I would 100% vote for him or her ... after all it can't do any harm now can it? Maybe they need to get their candidate from the 'ecentric club'
  8. she would eat you alive el pibe, best stick with Jenny as with her at least you would wake up knowing it was all carbon neutral

  10. Please make sure that you observe notices on doors that say No junk Mail as I consider the deluge of political information I get through my door as junk mail and it gets binned so be Really green and save it from going straight into the recycling box where their is a no junk mail notice on the door (and this is a plea to all parties not just the green party)

    Interesting The advert is misleading, but did you speak to Barry / Shine (the two older guys in the store) or one of the younger guys as barry or Shine would sort it out if you spoke to them. I have to say, I have been using then for as long as they have been in the area and I have no issues / complaints about them in the past 20 years so I suspect it is something that has happened by mistake rather then on purpose or to mislead you. I would also suggest not reporting them to trading standards as they are a local business and not a big supermarket, so any fines they receive could effect them un propotionally and as such we could end up loosing a well used and well loved family store. However i would suggest you talk to the owners directly and raise your complaint with them to see if they will resolve it.
  12. well I'm standing here looking at you what do I see? I'm looking straight through it's so sad when you're young to be told you're having fun so unplug the jukebox and do us all a favour that music's lost its taste so try another flavour - "antmusic" well I'm standing here what do I see? a big nothing threatening me it's so sad when you're young to be told you're having fun don't tread on an ant he's done nothing to you there might come a day when he's treading on you don't tread on an ant you'll end up black and blue you cut off his head legs come looking for you
  13. I used to be interesting but then I discovered the EDF !
  14. I had problems with my Humax up until a year ago, when i realisd that the cable running from the arial to the box had degraded over the years (it runs down the outside of the house) so put a new cable in and it solved the problem. Best way to check is if the problem is with the Humax and the TV when the arial cable is plugged into each in turn. If it is just one or the other then that may point to faulty equipment, otherwise try replacing the cable and seeing if that helps.
  15. yeah Mine's a pint of Dogbolter as you are paying NorthLondoner
  16. Man there goes the Neighbourhood toilet :'( I claim the reward as I have invented Doggy nappies that solves both problems, no Dog Shit on the street, and when the dog gets home the nappy falls of an leaves the shit on the owners floor. Just field tested one and apart from a squidgy bum, which feels strange, they work

However that is how our political system works, doesn't matter how many vote (it is their choice to vote or not to vote) it is the percentage of those that actually bothered to vote that counts..
