From sky "Brand said: "It is really interesting to see what happens when everyone gets together. There is a great sense of community." He then told reporters: "I always come to these kind of things, I'm very interested. I am interested in learning and interested in why these people have come to this. "I wonder what alternatives there are and I think it makes people cogent of them. I think it's also very beautiful." " Not exactly profound but not sure why it would get people so wound up either

Russel Brand's sports column every weekend is a cracker - and anyone who says otehriwse is speaking from prejudice rather than critical grounds. You don't have to like the guy, but to suggest he doesn't know what he's talking about is plain wrong

At the Plough? I forgot about that... It's a rare day I don't bump into at least one of the regulars if I'm around the Lane - not in a bad "ooh no I'm not in the mood for speaking right now" way but in a nice, vibey, hippyish way. Most people are genuinely really nice Of course if I meet any of them on a bus I will tazer them and tell them to back off. When I travel I travel quietly!

Stands to reason

Pinky B - don't worry, I'm sure Asset had tongue in her cheek. Especially given the thread title... I think there is a thread already devoted to this very topic but as I couldn't readily find it it seems fair enough to crack on with this one!

Hardly incriminating evidence Mike - am I to believe that your opinion of him is already fully-formed before you happened upon this interview?

a quick peek on a non-work pc... ah I see what you did there TLS.

Ah I just realised - it's probably Brendan isn't it?

Mick Mac - What with this and the lift thing I'm checking to see if you are me Quids - I laughed out loud. But you know he's going to be proved right on that score in the next 5-10 years

Well BB,it worked so well last weekend why not eh??

OutofFocus - better late than never. Cheers for uploading TLS: I have no idea - I can't access them from work. Do I have a head of white hair and look as if I have never managed a decent camera pose? Could well be me

and only Carnelli? I won't do? F L O U N C E

I like to know people's forum name first, then their real name. Gives me a split second to sprint for the door y'see

Related to the above I go to a lift lobby - I'm the only one there. I press the button. The light comes on.. I wait for the lift Someone else enters the lobby, brushes past me and jabs the button repeatedly

louisiana - not sure if it's your browser but the southwark website worked first time for me http://www.southwark.gov.uk/YourServices/environment/RecyclingPages/LocalRecyclingCentres.html I guess it depends on what you want to recycle - the small stuff or the big stuff. I use the one by the Hospital on east Dulwich Grove

Also in the Guardian today, did you see Simon Jenkins' piece about how everytime the police asked for more power in the 80s, Whitelaw used to send them away with a flea in their ear, and the police chuckled and said "it was worth a try" Why can't we have someone with that kind of backbone now

I haven't looked at Sky News website for a looong time - jaysus it's shite! You can practically hear the editor screaming "get me a picture of some twat with his head cracked open or you're all fired!!!"

Apparently he did but Ashley wasn't interested. There is also the problem of Dennis Wise to be dealt with - Shearer wasn't keen, Ashley was. And now Wisey looks to be on his way

snorky has been reading the original I Am Legend again...

Besides, whilst everyone is waiting for this damp-squib of a firework display to "kick-off", keep an eye out on other headlines. The ones buried on page 16...

Doffs cap in Piers direction

What, the Irish game not being shown? I don't think so. It's not even on Setanta Ireland - that is showing the BG game. I'm assuming that is the other feed the Vale uses so I could be out of luck

None of the channels appear to be showing the Italy v Ireland game tonight. I'm hoping the Vale have a feed - anyone know?

joerowntree and gutrocking already bagsied that one keef!
