East Dulwich Mums, relax! Middle classes, stop being so pushy! Germans, why so efficient?! Italians, stop being so lazy! Aries, why are you are all so competitive?!

The other week I had to call someone at work with the same surname as me. I looked them up on the internal list and promptly dialled myself. It was engaged.

I'm on a celestial boat having a cup of tea with the Godess Shakti. It seems the Hindus are right, everyone else is barking up the wrong tree...

Anyone got the new Elbow album?

What did you lot do in the days when it was permitted to smoke upstairs on the bus?! I'm showing my age here I think.

OK, how about Fantasy East Dulwich Celebrities? You get points for each celebrity you spot, we would just need to firm up the categories and point values. The lesser-spotted Gambon would be quite rare so would be worth a lot more than your common or garden Nesbitt.

I think there should be a Celebrity ED ladder ranked by kudos. Top Tier - International Stars of Film and/or Music Members would include Michael Gambon, Terry Gilliam Second Tier - Credible UK TV Actors/Pop Stars Timothy Spall Third Tier - Not so credible TV Actors/Pop Stars/Comedians Nesbitt, Eclair Fourth Tier - Soap Stars/ TV Journalists Her from Eastenders/Bad Girls, Her from Corrie, Anyone who has appeared in Heartbeat/The Bill, Jeremy Bowen

Foot and Mouth.

Funny, I was listening to Quadrophenia just the other week. Love that album.

It woke me. I thought someone was stomping around the house!

Wok This Way

I hereby call upon Paul McCartney to retire. Enough is enough. That new song was utter tripe and if I ever hear another sing-a-long-a-Hey-Jude it will be too soon. Spot on about Vic Reeves too. The man is an embarrassment. And don't get me started on the Osbournes :X

I know there is a large anti-chain contingent on this here forum, but would anyone concur that if a chain restaurant opened at the now empty "The Green", say perhaps a Pizza Express, Strada or Giraffe etc, then that may actually increase footfall to that parade and make it a more attractive spot for prospective shop owners?

My first school was Eliot bank in Forest Hill. They had a Star Wars fancy dress fair back in '78 or '79, all the kids dressed up as Star Wars characters and Dave Prowse was the guest of honour!

What about when you're stood up on the train and someone starts doing the "I'm about to get off" routine, so you start preparing yourself to nab their seat and then.... nothing. Teases!

My wife went into labour directly after watching an episode of Curb, she maintains it was just a coincidence.

Who is Russell Brand?

Definitely the former. Na na na na na na na naaa Baby Give it up give it up Baaaaaby give it uuuu-uu-up.
