That would be idiotic, they just need to be taught to listen properly when the labels are read out.

It's the grey I like - and the way it weathers and how it looks when different parts are wet and drying - a lick of paint would ruin it.

Ah yes, hatred would be 'irrational' if I had said I hated it - but this is about things one "doesn't get" - thas all. I don't get it like I don't get the whole superfoods argument (aren't we all still supposed to be eating some Gigi berry or other or drinking liquidised grass?) only got irritated when I first saw it written and got smug-smile-corrected in its pronunciation after asking in Peckham's H&B what kwinohwer was. Rice I get. Wheat I get (even when it's cracked). Oats ditto and Barley and I have a long standing understanding. But I think Quinoa can fuck off.

What do you mean 'wasn't worth the wait'?

I didn't say it was relevant - just that when I heard about the WD40 they seemed a slippery bunch.

What KK said, except that if we finally could dispel the fantasy of religion there would (without getting too Marxist about it) possibly be millions of people all over the world waking up; snapping out of it as though coming out of a stage-hypnotist's trance and thinking, "If there's no God and ergo no afterlife/reincarnation/etc... what the fuck am I putting up with this shit for?" Might they be a little pissed off? As most of them manage to refrain from being muderous lunatics, should they still keep (or should we hope they continue) drinking the Kool Aid? Or will people believe in "The Force" by then? Yes I know it's bonkers but I recently spent some time with a friend from Calif. (I know) who kept banging on about The Singularity and it leading to a kind of 'not-dying-immortality-second-life' bollocks. No, you're right. Not the thread for that.

Yes quids - that Isle of Wight ferry's a bastard.

If it's just a trim you can get a pedicure locally (few threads in businesses section) If it's got to the point of being a problem (medically) ask your GP to refer you to the Gaumont House clinic on Peckham High Street - had a few trotter problems sorted there and they do look at bunions, ingrowing toenails etc.

But without the fantasy of life-after-death/paradise/heaven the gullible might not do so - in this kind of incident at least - with such lack of regard for the consequences. The problem is that The West relies on, and even cherishes, it's own make-believe and so cannot condemn other religions but rather criticise their interpretation and hope the majority of adherents of said religion agree; and if history teaches us anything it's that the arguments over interpretation of individual religions cause destruction and death as surely as wars between rival philosophies.

If we accept the principle of presumed innocent until proven guilty then we must equally accept found guilty as charged until shown otherwise. Everything else is opinion.

Camberwell Old Cemetery - lots of old plots overgrown by wild woodland and views over the city

I also remember the street from the early 90s when the Bishop Brewery was still up at Borough and bermondsey antiques market was very popular because a bye-law meant that if you 'accidentally' bought stolen goods there they were yours for keeps - not sure if that's still the case but it made the place a right den of duckers and divers on a Friday morning.
