There are a more than a few pairs of escaped Parakeets - there's loads of 'em. They seem to feel the need to squawk in flight and when static, they are of Australian extraction apparently.

Cactus are you really ..... FLUFFY?

Oh dear, this means you wil now have be extra EXTRA nice to Mrs Mockers so that she will give you dinner money.

"Please fetch the rubber "iron" bar for Balin, BigNumber5Dwarf - he has decided to multiskill"

*Grudgingly stomps in wearing too tight red tailcoat and a ridiculous and bent top hat, steps over PeckhamGateCrasher* "OK sort yourselves out, we've got actual customers coming in this weekend. Can somebody please get the quivering clown off the tight-rope, I think he has suffered an embarrassment, clean the elephant poo of Moos and Kel PLEASE stop scrubbing Nelly's bits, its not good for her and the audience over the weekend will be mostly good Irish Catholics and they wont have come to see THAT sort of show" "Why is the BigNumber5 wrapped in Bakofoil? I have told you before we are NOT doing the human cannon ball thing again, not after the last miss-calculation; "Huguenot the Howitzer" ended up in Singapore, a pity as he was fired in Plumstead. Clearly BigNumber5 is made for the dwarf-tossing, volunteers to be the tosser?" "Please take the knives out of Louisa, you know only the silver ones have any sort of effect, AnnaJ can do the knife throwing she is good with blades, qualified and everything - also useful if things go... a bit pear-shaped. Piers will have to be given light duties, he is still gibbering - in Spanish" "Moos can do the savage untamed beast, chair and whip act. Who wants the chair and the whip?" "Andrew D Black, we need you, there is an opening in the Bearded Lady Department" "Oh yes, why didnt anybody catch PeckhamGateCrasher?"

*Will somebody please let me out of this very small metal box?* *The chains have got caught around my leg and I cant feel my foot* *Sod escapology, its the ticket booth for me*

I salute your commitment, efforts and achievement. Seriously. Could somebody just tell me which shops I can go to get my bag and show my support?

A proper Chef doing proper food could be the very making of Hoopers; that and some great live music of course.

Personally I think starting with a light lunch - for blotting purposes.

Well, as Georgia always gets the plaudits I have slunk back into her shadow; but just think of me as Steerpike :)). I do the Curry Club after all!

I think that the issue was that having loudly broadcast that everybody in the defined area would get a voucher to get a bag it would seem that a significant number of us didnt. Its a matter of whether the funding was efficiently used for the target group for which it was intended. People clearly want one of them (great) and were promised one of them (great) but now there is a concern that we wont now be able to access them (not great) and this doesnt do alot for the cause.

Hope springs eternal Louisa!

Post Office provides this service too.

Is he coherent yet?

Some marvellous stereotyping going on here.

I am no scientist; but I was watching Discovery on a working from home day and they were saying that the idea that aliens would be able watch our TV broadcasts is a myth as the signals disperse around space evenly, by the time they got to the planet Zarg the signal would be so dispersed that there would be coherent signal to turn into images. Why send an Apache after a UFO? Its a very slow helicopter, well armed but slow and was never designed for air to air intercepts. Live long and prosper.

BIG hugs Piers!!

Chicken, they taste like chicken.

I think you'd get as far as East Street - at which point the marchers would hit the market for knock off bling and it would all get messy.

On that happy note .....

Doing a rain dance, it worked, rained last night.

The new Jus-Rol pastry ad "Just add cheese and a sliced tomato and bake for a .... cheese and tomato baked thingy" Shameless exploitation of people's fear of unemployment

I cannot even begin to imagine how many people Mockney Piers hugged last night. It must have run into the thousands.

I think that the DH station photo was taken with the snappers back to the Sally Army site.
