Just in case anyone doesn't know, there are engineering works between London Bridge and Tulse Hill on Saturday, Sunday and Easter Monday, so if you are staying in ED and want to go out and about, best think about alternative travel arrangements.

I don't have a clue how I would behave in such a situation. I would like to THINK that I would stand up to a bully and help a stranger, but honestly if confronted with someone with a knife maybe, I just don't know.

But all I want is a piece of toast for breakfast!

I like the Sainsbury's Granary Harvest loaf - ?1.05 so a good bit cheaper than a Hovis. Not impressed by Waitrose and though Morrisons loaves all look really nice they have been a bit of a disappointment in the taste stakes.

I like bees - could do without wasps and hornets as mentioned, and to add to them horseflies, bluebottles, rosemary beetles, slugs and anything else that eats my veg shoots.

Had my first Sunday lunch at the Magnolia yesterday and was very impressed, I think someone must have mentioned their roasties to them as mine were lovely and crispy. Will definitely be returning...........

Count me in - my terrace could help finance our champagne and oyster lifestyle (and we could always have Greggs export some sausage rolls if we feel the need to slum it a bit!!)

Fast forward to Britain in 2010, house prices still falling, people still losing jobs (potentially 3 to 4 million out of work, and an economy hanging on by the skin of its teeth. Go another decade beyond that and you may be questioning why you ever stayed behind on this sinking ship. Louisa. So where are we going then Louisa? :)

Dulwichdoll - I refer you RosieH's excellent precis of the story so far. Even if some posters are being a tad unfair to Poppy, I don't understand why you are getting so angry. If she wants to defend herself then she has every opportunity to do so.........

Love it - but one small amendment, surely the dog should be played by our own forum Woofthedog!

Please - you're putting me off my lunch..........

Not sure if it counts as a hobby but I used to scuba dive - however that does take a lot of time and money. Gardening - after all it is now the rage to grow your own.

The lollipop stick one was also started in the middle of the night and followed up the middle of the next night. How is it in Australia Poppy?

I went in last night for the first time since the refurb - I thought it looked very good - but was sorry that there was not a lot of change in the menu (and not a great choice of ales). However the beer garden was still the best and I look forward to returning when there is some proper sun!

I think sometimes having a little moan on somewhere safe like the forum is better than fuming inside about things that annoy you. It does seem that similar things seem to press the 'anger' button on a lot of people, things that probably wouldn't have even registered 20 or even 10 years ago, like the speed of people walking!!!

How come there are never any familiar faces? I trawl up and down LL on a Saturday and I don't recognise anyone from these or any other forum photographs.

But does she drink beer and watch and discuss sport?

Expressions like 'at this moment in time' - say NOW for fecks sake.

Greggs - or is it ironically iconic?

Miss miss and then miss again.

Villager - slightly harsh assessment but I think I agree with your basic argument. The man in question was undoubtably discourteous, indeed downright rude, but to show a complete lack of regard for the needs of other bank users is also discourteous. It is a shame that we now live in a society where nearly everyone is in a rush rush rush, but that is how it is, and those of us who are lucky enough to have time enough to spare, need to appreciate that others don't. On many a rant thread it is people who don't get their purses/credit cards out until actually asked for payment, or those who don't even start searching for their travel cards until they are actually blocking an entrance/exit that get extremely short shrift. I would think that this is of a similar ilk.

Thought last nights episode was magnificent.

Will there be special buggy lanes, and what about children who are too young to understand, will their parents be fined?
