Watched Corbyn on the steel-workers march - far from being a firebrand leading the workers in their fight against the Government he looked like he'd been taken hostage.

Ah, LadyN, so true. Stein is a skin-crawling nightmare of a man with a smile like a second-hand car salesman. "Oh how I wish we could be more like the French/Spanish/Malaysians etc..." an oily creep who is spreading over Cornwall like a virus. He is incorporating his son into shows now as he is planning to open a restaurant (on the south coast of Cornwall) which his son will run - got to get his face in front of the punters.

Beauty? Attraction? The Gridge* is hideously ugly - like a couple of tupperware cake-stands. "Grudge the Gridge" T-shirts available please send me ?16.99** *Courtesy of the PR group that brought you "Brexit" and "BoJo". **T-shirts and ink not supplied.

If you have a NatWest a/c they have a coin-counting paying-in machine in the Denmark hill branch.

-and it wouldn't really feel like the end of the season if we didn't get to piss on ManU's chips :)

Ha, I was greedy and had us for a 4-2 win! Great night (bottle throwing knobs and keeper-confronting idiots aside) and I hear Cockney Rejects are setting up to play - wonder if Quids is with them? I know it's only a game but I shall really miss that ground (even if my recent attendances weren't what they used to be) - it was a special place. But what a game to finish on. Classic.

It bloody pisses me off. The FA > should have looked after him better. Never mind the FA, West Ham should have looked after him better. Their treatment of him was shameful and no amount of statues or stands or advertising slogans ("moore than a football club" still makes my skin crawl) can wash that away.

I'm sure half those Green St traders will find a way (hook or crook)to carry on a bit of business near Olympiana - the whole thing wouldn't hurt as much if the club weren't moving to what I still think will prove a relatively atmosphere-free zone. I think the first game there will be full of fans staring in disbelief at this patch of grass in the distance and saying "F*ck me, is this the view?!"

Flowers was hit and miss, moving and involving then clich?d and predictable; some characters too 2D to be real others painfully so (and a smattering of the, now not unexpected, surreal characters like those in Toast-of-London - I thought the neighbour WAS Ray bloody Purchase for a second). I kept dithering over whether i really liked it or not right up until the end of the final episode. I just hope there'll be more of it so i can try and make a decision or at least have a longer dither. Best tv for quite a while.

I think you need a lie down Parky - first you think I'm a 'yanited' fan now Mick Mac's an Iron?! Are all you QPR fans like this?

Sweaty Betty - the final nail in the gentrification coffin?
maxxi replied to Louisa's topic in The Lounge
The Londis devpmnt also includes a two storey extension along NCR to provide 4 two-bedroom flats. Like the M&S site it's an opportunity to shoehorn more luxury flats into the area. -
Spurs have been top 5 or 6 in 8 of the last 10 seasons so when the usual 'top 4' conspire to fook it up and Liverpool still a work in progress you'd expect TH to take advantage - them being there or thereabouts is not a surprise. They're building well and will have another shot next season but I doubt Leicester will. I'm rooting for Melchester.

Patch those holy levis with an old bar towel* doc - fashionable, comfortable and absorbent (for those distressing arse-gravy moments) - and whenever you get sweaty crack syndrome you'll only smell the redolent scent of stale bitter. *Carling Black Label/Whitbread Trophy for groove points. Craft beer towels are NOT acceptable.

By her own admission she's a LibDem. I like a laugh in local politics but really. Snappy ad at the bottom of your link - "Now available to pre-order: Nick Clegg's Politics - The Art of the Possible in an Age of Unreason..." Don't all rush at once... bless.

Threads That Would Make Good Album Names (+Group or Genre)...

Sleb Injunctions - Yello Overcharging in Sainsburys - Pulp Bulky Waste Chaos - Bad Manners -
This time last year I said Khan was "an embarrassment of vacuous sloganing and fake sincerity that was truly sickening" and haven't changed my mind; Posho is so dim and so obviously being worked by others you can see the strings, I shall probs vote Sian Berry and the mad Polish Prince as a back-up (anyone who challenges Farage to a duel can't be all mbad).

Blimey doc - that's very nearly a Vardy!

Homes Under the Hammered?

Be fair Jah - we did manage to throw in a Vardy ban too. What a silly, blatant dive it was too. Someone needs to have a word.
