Indeed.

Plus if you look at Tarot's posting history over the past year or so, it's obvious he is just ammusing himself by trying to wind up what he probably sees as a bunch of "loony leftiues" or some such bollocks. Sad sad little man.

Just looked at this thread for the first time. Feel quite sad that there are some genuinely horrible nasty cunts on this forum. Uncleglen must be very proud that he's raised his son in his own image.

Well said Fizmoll, but the likes of Tarot will never ever listen.

I totally know what you mean Tarot, at this rate we'll have gay immigrants sucking each other's cocks in the toilets of the Queen Vic and ruining Eastenders even more for you. World's gone bloody mad I tell you.

My parents in law heard today that the bank will be refunding theior ?1300, so keep the faith.

Best alternitive is to not bother with NCT. Unless it's mainly for meeting people having babies at a similar time, but you can do that via this section of the forum.

In my opinion this is not your neighbours' falt, but the builders. If the Sky engineer spoke with them, I'd be asking them for the money, not the neighbours who didn't put the scaffolding up. I appreciate that this is very annoying for you, but to them it's probably pretty far down the list of things to worry about at this time.

Yes that's what I thought too, and I'd be astounded if they handed over hundreds after just seeing a cash card. But I guess whoever took the card could be very well practiced at blagging. In a way ot would suit you if that is what happened because they'd have breached their own protocols.

So is this person listening to recorded drums or practicing on a drum kit? If it's a kit they should at least be using pads to dull the sound.

My mother in law had her card stolen on Sydenham high Street last week. I think someone spied her putting her PIN in, then snatched the card when it ejected (details hazy as she gets confused). It was reported immediately, and police were called and did a home visit to take a statement (which again was a bit hazy). What we have found is that HSBC have given mixed messages. My wife spoke to someone in China or somewhere and they insisted her parents would need to go to a branch (not really possible for them). I then called and spoke to a really helpful guy in an Indian call centre and he said that was a nonsense. When you say they withdrew money in branch, do you mean with ATM or over the counter. Perhaps worth checking if any forms of ID are also missing, otherwise I'm not sure how they'd have withdrawn the money with just a card and no PIN. Fraud department are investigating my mother in law's case, and we are hopeful they'll get their money back. Banks do have insurance for this sort of thing, but if they can find a reason not to pay up they obviously will, because they're bastards.

Is their number 5 named Goliath? He was bloody HUGE!

Basically a crap match (opposition came to defend and get a point), but a late late goal sent us all away very happy.

Totally depends where you are. Brockley Cross is a bit scruffy (or always used to be), but other parts like near Hillyfields, are full of nice 3 storey victorian houses, often with basements and massive gardens. Had lots of friends around there growing up, and always felt very jelous of their houses (compared to mine in East Dulwich).

Yeah Brockley does have some beautiful old housing stock, massive great houses, a lot of which are probably converted.

Has anyone watched HBO's "The Leftovers"? We're 3 or 4 episodes from the end, and I think it's both brilliant, and about the most bleak thing I've ever watched. Rather than the usual apocolypse type thing where only a handful remain, this is about a strange event that takes 2% of the world's population away in the blink of an eye, and how those remaining deal with that. Anyway, I recommend it. Although if the last 3 episodes turn out shit, I reserve the right to unrecommend.

This has potential to turn in to a disaster for the player. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34121198 He needs to just suck it up and get on with it til January.

According to his own twitter,it seems Charlie Austin will be staying at QPR (and leaving on a free next summer). Gob smacked that no one would cough up ?15m for him.

ED to Mottingham in 20 minutes? No way.

Has anyone here actually watched a hustings in it's entirity? I did last night (because the wife just received her ballot papers and is torn). Corbyn doesn't come across as a loony or a naive student at all. He actually was head and shoulders above the rest in terms of communication and clear vision, as opposed to the usual soundbytey stuff. And with the exception of being very clear he'd want rid of trident (and making a pretty good case for it), he was the far left nutter we're being told he is. Cooper impressive in that it's clear she's give Cameron absolute hell, but less impresive / clear about her vision. Andy Burnham strikes a bit of a tragic figure. I really liked an awful lot of what he said, but like Milliband he just isn't a great communicator and comes across a bit arkward. Real shame, because he has depth, and I think he knows where he wants to go with the party. Kendall, NO!!! Actually, in all seriousness, she said some good things. I believe that she is passionate about inequality, particularly with the young. And I believe she finds a lot of tory policy repellant. But she'd definitely be tory lite, a lot of similar policies but with a dollop more compassion. Not enough for me.
