My puppy has eaten the sofa seat cushions. Anywhere local that can make new ones for a reasonable price?

What is a goof?

I trust Renata Hamvas. But you don't know me from a bar of soap so I can't see that my opinion is worth very much to you.

I have Australian friends who have used this place which seems okay. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g186338-d2101572-Reviews-Glenthurston_Self_Catering_Apartments-London_England.html

St Francesca Cabrini School have put in an application to the Council to chop down a number of trees, including a huge, healthy sycamore and a giant horse chestnut. I hate the idea of trees being felled and would like to object, but don't know what are considered reasonable grounds for objection. I'm guessing that "I really like looking at those wonderful trees," isn't going to cut it. Anyone know what I could say that might stop them being chopped down?

I endorse Robson's, too. I don't think she likes people that much, but she's very committed to animals.

I have to pick up someone from Victoria coach station at about 9.30 pm one night next week. Does anyone know of a good spot where I could pull up in a car nearby and wait? I'd prefer not to have to go into a parking garage or anything like that.

I went to the loo during the crucial reveal moment in The Crying Game and when I got back and asked my husband if anything important had happened I didn't believe his answer.

I love the French Cafe. Staff have always been friendly and helpful to me and my family. I enjoy the Monmouth coffee, too. ETA Not sure what the appearance of the staff has to do with anything. Do you prefer extraordinary-looking staff?

The councillor has lived in the lodge for much longer than she has been a councillor. There is absolutely no connection between her role and her residence.

There's a thread about a "strange Polo" that seems to provide an answer to your question.

Cirio and Napolina

Could someone have been trying to make a cast of the inside of the keyhole? A bit far fetched, I know, but one would use Vaseline to stop the casting medium getting stuck.

The real crime is wearing a brown coast with black trousers. Ew.

I'm sure you're right. Just my wish list.

Free horse manure available from Dulwich Riding School I believe.

Charity shop or book shop or secondhand furniture shop ( used to be one of the latter where The French Cafe is now, which I sorely miss, but obviously didn't do enough to support when it was there...

Do you like the idea of dinghy sailing at all? My husband and I used to go on Menorca Sailing Holidays (http://www.minorcasailing.co.uk/)a while back and there was always a number of single people of varying ages who were having a good time together, but were not necessarily on the lookout for a hook-up. No need to know how to sail, excellent equipment and instruction for all abilities, plus plenty of time to go sightseeing without relying too much on just one other person.

Google "repurposed mugs" and look at the image results. Plenty of ideas for re-using mugs.

I have a couple of CD player/radios with the CD part not working, but the radio working fine. It seems wrong to just chuck them, but I can't think what else to do with them. Any ideas?
