Not intelligent enough to have an opinion... where exactly does that figure on your scale of the 'untermensch' you deride for not agreeing with your vision of the new world order?

    i was drifting to the cusp but the more of blahblah's horseshit i read the more i drift back to being out.
  4. Maybe Penge East is the new East Dulwich and Penge West is North Dulwich but Sydenham is surely not Dulwich Village so maybe Lower Sydenham is the new Lower Dulwich or is that New Beckenham? All, anyway, sneered at by those on Sydenham Hill or Beckenham Hill (both the new Forest Hill and Dog Kennel Hill respectively).
  5. Imagine Cruz as president... anyone who is misguided enough to think he is a palatable alternative to Drumpf needs to have a look at the things HE stands for.

  7. A Low Calorie Quinoa with cucumber and black beans served in an ironic jogger's vest
  8. Soup in various brass instruments surely? A trumpet of tomato and shame, a french horn onion fiasco or merely a euphonium of courgette and cabbage (stand well clear at the back - ah-thankyou!)

Hartleys for a stout, supermarket jam for lager, Bonne Maman for craft beer and Roses Lime for a whisky and splash. Maybe pickled eggs in retro egg cups, crackling in a toast rack and refills via a four pint teapot. Breakfast of champions.

  12. I had a pulled pork thing served on wood, no big deal, I didn't die, it was fine... actually it was delicious and eating from the wooden board made a nice change. I think any place determined to serve you - what did idiot-boy call them?, oh yes, 'germs' - would be as able to do so with an unwashed china plate or a glass with fungal growth in its nether regions as with a plank. I dare-say I'd probably scoff at a cocktail in a jamjar but surely that is so old hat as to be only served in the Poundland version of hip bars now? I like food on wood or slate or even on greaseproof paper (the idea!). Plus - anything that makes Louisa's blood boil is de facto something i support wholeheartedly. Mine's a cod & chips served in a miner's helmet - ta!
  13. I've said it on another thread and it's not a quick journey and hardly a less well known city but if you haven't tried it Vienna (Eurostar to Paris then on via Zurich) is worth a visit. More art (especially modern) than you can shake a stick at and very cheap (and good quality) restaurants and bars.

The success was all at the beginning and without trawling through for hard facts (eesh) I'm sure i said at one point that he deserved a well-done for the promotion - that it was what he was brought in for - and that that was the time he should have been let go. THEN he'd have got a handshake. He stayed and he was given time and money and even (grudgingly) a second bite after he served up dogshit football and mocked the fans but he couldn't or wouldn't evolve. That handshake was withdrawn a long time before he was kicked out.

GP at his best.
  18. Or don't. (Posts non-aligned neutral smiley)
  19. Still the negativity continues, "naive, deluded, kidding themselves, it'll be a mess..." an endless stream of patronising & pompous" warnings" so reminiscent of the Scots independence vote that I can see many being swayed into the out camp if only to be deliberately perverse (a great British pastime). Let's hear instead about all the positive reasons for staying and not just because it's the status quo, sing out on the joys of European union and let us hear you.

So SHE'S the one. The only show I am perversely glued to atm is Beowulf - pure WTF TV. Just when you think they can't make it any more ridiculous/absurd/f^cking-dreadful they spring another surprise. Watching actors grit their teeth and try not to look appalled as the realisation of what they have done to their careers sinks in episode by episode is quite moving, "They told me it was going to be another Game of Thrones...!"

It says that anyone actually basing their decision on who's for and who's against* shouldn't be allowed a vote on Big Brother let alone anything important. *Once I know which way Cheggers is going to vote I'll feel safer.

My feeling is that people are liars. In a nice way of course. They will say what they think they should say when asked outright (like the shy Tory effect). They will spout well-learned stats about financial security in Europe, they will seem to revel in future European harmony and profess a love for their fellow European citizens. They will - if pushed - even join in the mocking of those who might dare suggest we 'leave'. Then, in the privacy of the booth, they will vote to exit. And blame everyone else for it if it goes tits-up later.
  23. Persons republic I think - referred to generally as 'One's Republic'?
