  1. Prune and replace or add a grease band, it's the most common missed out disease preventer. But if think you've got true Silver Leaf then there's some further reading here http://www.which.co.uk/documents/pdf/silver-leaf-disease-153706.pdf
  2. Kid, Missus ? Oh dear Liam That just won't do. It's 2013 here in ED you know
  3. Ok For a balanced view I decided to give this CRAZEEE show another look in Tho that took some doing, as the BBC had hidden it at the arse end of viewing schedule broom cupboard. Yep, seems that Sunday nite at 11:30 pm when most sane or sober people are in bed, ready for the onslaught of the working week, is when the BBC are confident that NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND is going to see the car-crash-shite-a-thon, and therefore not make any further nasty comments or critical reviews. As it happens, i'd just returned from Jamie's & Alex's 'Feastival' in the Cotswolds (more of that later), so I was up and totally sober to watch That Puppet Game Show Much like the Royal cousins left locked up & hidden away to die in the aptly named 'Royal Earlswood Hospital' this show is now as far away as the BBC can get it before A.Pushing under a fast moving train or B. Suffocating it, by annexing it out in the nether reaches of TV land, which they've rightly done. Bravo, but I still want a refund on my licence fee please. It's thankfully contained to 8 episodes & we are now at episode 4. It's still shite but we're nearer the end than the beginning, so it's improving, in that it's nearer to ending. Tho for Jamie Omerod the series producer, that can't come soon enough I imagine Of the mind numbing 'games' I'd consider guzzling Largactil in preference to "Nosey neighbour" or "Punch your lights out" where contestants (in idiocy) wear a suit with illuminated torches on, and you guessed it! they punch them until they go out, at which point a sausage with an Irish accent gives the score. Hilarious really/honest , tho i've come up with another version called "Punch their teeth out" in which for a week after the show, we the public get to punch the wankers on the previous show's teeth out, as they shop in Westfield or Aldi. The whole premise is tempered by the ?10,000 donated to a charity. Surely someone could pay the remaining ?40K off and put us all out our misery. (Well those who watched/endured it anyway) Next week i'll be slaughtered and falling asleep on a half eaten kebab, not my first choice for Sunday night. But way preferable to this load of cark. Lastly, the above mentioned Royal hospital was previously called "The Asylum for Idiots". How very apt, maybe those responsible at the BBC could rename their commissioning department.
  4. We have this 'custom' one on order http://www.signomatic.co.uk/order/basket/2763533?pass=83660601
  5. I saw one small bit, where Sharon cackled and puffed her face. Boy she's looking odd, (and I like a read of the National Inquirer me) really quite scary odd. And yes the prison officer could kinda sing, but ... 'all the way' looking like that? Don't think so, no.
  6. Gluten free ? Not down here in the Kent countryside, no! Combine harvester going all hours of the night Retired city men in pastel shades, eating in very average pricey restaurants Once captains of industry, no wonder country's on it's knees

Seconded, makes The Road seem a breeze Mind you, J M Cotzee Disgrace is pretty fekin grim as is Prozac Nation Actually, Prozac Nation & The Road are two books I read cover to cover, eyes nearly bleeding until 5 am. I then crashed out physically & mentally for a couple of days. But to top them both, two books based on (some) fact. An Evil Cradling by Brian Keenan The Devils Double by Latif Yahia Fekin hell, both gave me nightmares.
  8. I've been in a full on-lost-in-the-country-sat-nav-phone-crashing-grump this 'arvonoon But then a few light 'moos' words & i'm much revived and invigorated Sadly, no house but i'll keep 'em peeled.
  9. And...? Is burger bear still with us or has something terrible happened to it Don't tell me; he unraveled and by the time he hit earth he was just a damp ball of kapok & calico Or is he hanging in there by a thread still ?

  11. I'm considering 'relocating' my neighbours cat. Don't worry, she's a big silly ol'bird & will hardly notice it's gone. Plus she's a habitual cat rescuer and has had about a dozen of the things. Tho this particular one "Dodger" is a pain in the arse, with it's early morning "Mmmmmmaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" and "MmmmmmeeeeeeeAAAAAAAArrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" round in my side alley way or out on the road. I wonder how far he'd need to go before he'd not find his way back I'm sure he'd be way happier in Oxford or Dorset (I know I would be, if he were) Anyone going that way, please pm me. I'd contribute to the petrol if that helps.
  12. What does fathercourage reckon Seems you're sold, but he needs convincing maybe ?
  13. No more voluntary euthanasia please H Else i'll have to post my infamous "He's brown bread I reckon" post again

  19. Either: You make a template out of clear Correx sheet Mark the finished edges (the ones that you'll see) onto the template with black Sharpie. Spec a pencil round edge around the top edge , again where you'll see Go down to Marble City Wandsworth or another stonemason and they'll quote/supply you Honed black slate is usual and not expensive, finish it with this stuff http://www.amazon.co.uk/HG-Satin-Polish-Golvpolish-litre-P14-PLEASE/dp/B001DYUMD2 Once fitted mask the edges and fill the gaps with black silicon and tool wet into shape. Carefully remove and leave to cure. Or: Get a company to template, supply, fit. It's a standard service. I use Paul Challen in Arundel as they work all over London. Hope this helps Pm me for any other details if you like.

Back in the 80's hidden cameras still had a wiff of technical mystery, tho nowadays anyone armed with a camera phone can "Merk" an unsuspecting victim. (God, how I hate that "Merk" word, but know it's being bandied around at creative-ha! meetings along side that other 'BOOM' i'm-a-cock-buzz-word. Come to think about it, the guy who made That Puppet Game Show uses it on his 'hilarious' twitter feed. And he's a proper W4NKER of the highest order) That said; if done well it can work. However, over or underdone is flimsy flimsy Saturday-nite-garbage. Don't hold your breath for anything worthwhile coming our way soon. Tho if it does, i'll snap a broom handle up my rear end & poke my eyes out with the let over sharp bit.
  21. It all sounds very exhausting, I mean i'm exhausted just reading the whole thread You'll be needing another holiday to get over this one, tho i'm sure you'll be letting all concerned know that Good luck, let us know how much/what you squeeze out of them ( you helped yourself to all the soaps, gels and coffee sachets tho, right? I mean that's a given. That said, i'm inundated with unworn showercaps & those flat origami slipper thingy's from round the globe )

Indeed you did Jah, so banter on (i'm sadly in agreement with you previous post tho, twas painfully ominous)
  23. Oh dear, not the standard Arsenal knocking from the other North London club fan >They could be out in the qualifiers< (as could any other team, it's how the game works)
  24. Buy an all day ticket for the catamarans that fly up and down the Thames, its pretty cheap and you can hop on and off easy. You get a great view of London that is pretty fekkin cool no matter how old you are. It also links up to places like the South bank with the Tubes etc. And there's a coffee shop on board http://www.thamesclippers.com/our-fleet/our-fleet.html
  25. Or turn your whole garden into a giant pond "Cat problems?"http://i00.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/336/095/483/483095336_515.jpg"Not us"
