  1. Some youths tried to push me off my bike last night. I was cycling south along Portland St, SE17 at about 6pm. They ran into the road and tried to grab me. Luckily they missed. If you ride that way keep your eyes peeled. I think I'll find another route.
  2. Franklins do a delicious bacon sarnie, yes it's poncey, it's ?5 and it might even have rocket in it, but it's tasty.
  3. Dressing up a dog's dinner with rocket really would be poncey.
  4. When I was getting a black cab from Victoria a few nights ago the cabbie said the only fares he picks up south of the river are going to either ED or Clapham. He seemed happy enough to take my ?27.
  5. That would be a great idea.
  6. There's not much more depressing than the sight of a once loved boozer converted to flats. The Heber Arms springs to mind.
  7. I have noticed that selection of bangers and jalopies. I assume there's a sheepskin wearing bloke somewhere who owns the lot.
  8. I'm with d803cn.. I tied the train a few times this week as my bike was out of commission. It was a horrible experience. I get from ED to Camden Town in roughly half the time that public transport takes using pedal power.
  9. As we are discussing the price of fish, should this be in Lounge?
  10. Sounds a bit odd. While I was on the phone to my wife last week a bloke knocked and asked if we needed any relacement windows or jobs done. She said no and he went away but it seemed a bit strange.
  11. When we lived in Battersea there was always trouble at the Sainsbury's local. I think these kind of shops attract it. It's mostly people trying to shoplift booze and getting caught. Never pleasant when you see violence in action.
  12. Harvester: Neil Young
  13. It's slightly meatier than Cod but well cooked in a nice crispy batter it's rather tasty.. Maybe the good people at Sea Cow will do taster portions for people to try.

  15. Hi Dan I'm going to give you a try. Coley is delicious and I'm sure it'll be a hit.. you just need to persuade people to try it. Maybe put sweet potato chips on the menu too.
  16. No Fun. Sex Pistols
  17. Flight of the bumble bee (Rimsky Korsakov)
  18. -- moved topic --
  19. Doctor Boo (Steely Dan)
  20. There was a car clamped in our road last week by the congestion charge people.
  21. See Emily's Plaice (pink Floyd)
  22. Apologies in advance for this bit of whimsy, but it's a miserable Friday and I need cheering up. While cycling to work I've been setting some almost ED road names to well known songs. So here are are some I've come up with so far to get you started: Underhill, Overhill Wombling Free (Wombles) Dunstans so close to me (Police) Marmora than a feeling (Boston) Frogley went a courting (trad) Any more..
  23. If that car had crashed into the Bishop this year it would have taken out several smokers. Mmmm Ocado.
  24. I remember that co-op. Forgotten about until now.. just had a Green Sheild Stamp flashback.
