  1. Why is 9 extra minis "too many" new cars for the area? Has everyone who is buying a flat in the area pledged to not use a car or something? Let's say Foxton's didn't exist and the site was, oh I don't know, a cinema. Or another bar. Or a supermarket. Or anything else How many extra cars do you think would exist just around those roads in the next 6 months. A lot more. Hundreds more. There will be hundreds more anyway.... so these 9 wee cars?? Not that big a deal I can't help feel that if they weren't branded cars there wouldn't be so much hoo-hah. And I pretty much loathe Foxton's myself Next thing you know, people will be complaining about petrol being ?1 a litre... oh wait.... Some people NEED a car. A small minority. If everyone else who didn't need one didn't use them all the time there would be a hell of a lot more room for those who do. If you don't need one, but like using them then fair enough. But guess what - so does EVERY OTHER PERSON AROUND YOU. So complaining isn't really going to help
  2. I dont understand, georgia i have yet to see a curry house open after any drinks . . . :)-D
  3. And what time, pray tell, is considered "wise" to have the curry - 7ish? Shouldn't a table be booked on a Friday night?
  4. Horsebox The list of compatible Xbox games has improved a lot - and it was a concern of mine but in truth when you are playing quality 360 titles AND the live Arcade titles you will miss next to nothing on the old Xbox Come on - join us!
  5. Mike I don't think that's true - AB1 wouldn't choose that location as they insist on footfall The Woolwich looks to be the likeliest spot
  6. Lozzyloz I pass that sign every day and always intend to take a pic of it - well done sir
  7. Mockney ooooh my - I have NOOOO idea what he is talking about !
  8. Jah - surprised you didn't pick up on this today: Fat, does a job when he wants to, prefers money to loyalty footballer in I'm a Tory shocker
  9. you know when you make a sauce that is just tooooo hot???? If I don't post for a while you know why...
  10. Here Yes (it's a state of mind at this point....)
  11. I think today may be the best collection from you lot yet- I reckon I'm ?50 down if I buy half of these
  12. Annasfield: I SOOOO know what you mean. I used to warn people about the forum drinks. Now I just warn the landlords ;-) And is it me or is there a lot of love in the room today? People seem very up for Friday night (a few of us heading to the comedy at EDT tomorrow as well - young forumite "mellors" is even breaking his comedy/publi forum cherry there..... anyone else coming? Mickey Flanagan is on and is superb. Can't vouch for the other acts but they usually put on a good 'un)
  13. When I first saw ED change I would have put good money on the EDT being the perfect site for ABO. Still amazed that never happened (and relieved) I thought the ABO brand was on the wane anyway?? It could be the overall pubco that is looking at sites rather than an All Bar One. (and don't that pubco already "do" The Plough? )
  14. Just had a chili at fresson cafe near black friars. . Bit heavy on the tomato it was too .
  15. Ah - thanks Seems fair enough although I'd be happier if they gave me a recycling bin after I asked them 3 weeks ago ;-)
  16. Ibo Not sure exactly what you mean by this - is it putting recycelable material in normal bins etc?
  17. oooh I could bring the books that didn't make The Canning...
  18. One Day Tho' It Might As Well Be Some Day You And I will Rise Up All The Way All Because Of What You Are... The Prettiest Star
  19. Mike Given your statement: "Birmingham pub bombings - part of a 1970s IRA campaign of bombings in the mainland UK. 21 people killed in a series of bombs in cellar bars of central Birmingham. Many more maimed for life, created enormous strains between the Birmingham Irish and the rest of the city's population. We SHOULDNT forget history -this is the only way that we dont make mistakes twice." I would argue that the lesson that should have been learned was not to look, under public pressure/panic, for the nearest fit-up a la Birmingham Six/Guildford Four/ De Menezes/only doing our job/we're very brave really Now, I AM being slightly facetious there... but not much. The deal, the, if you like, difference between us "good guys" and the "baddies" is how we react. Western foreign policy may or may not contribute to Islamic disturbance, it doesn't justify the extreme reactions. Ditto Saudi bombers crashing into Twin Towers. Do we NEED to start a 5 year campaign Iraq?? On a more silly note, the IRA bombings cause UK reaction (pulling Kerrygold butter off the shelves???? That well known source of IRA funding)
  20. Yossi seemed to have a hand in most of the rest of the game - not just his goals just the tonic you 'pool supporters needed - nice one (tu)
  21. Am I getting confused here? People seem to be suggesting that HeidiHi is saying we could/should be more like those countries (in a BAD way) when what I read from Heidi's post was exactly the same as Mockney's point - ie, other countries have learned to live with a terrorist threat so let's not all jump off a cliff* because bombs are going off here * or anything else stupid. Such as meaningless security checks at airports. New legislation. Fan the flames of "terror" by suggesting people are shot dead because they look darker than they are or.... oh wait we already have done those things But Mockney's advice remains good for any of us posting - a deep breath before hitting the keys helps any point come across better ;-)
  22. MW74 The warehouse is a big place behind Cafe Nero which will be opening very soon and home to a range of small outlets (that's my understanding anyway)
  23. you got it.. ;-)
  24. Some curries oils are oilier than other curries oils...
  25. My brother still maintains that the first time he spent on a kibbutz was one of the best years he had. In any case, a couple of years ago he came with me to the quiz at the CPT and I noticed he kept checking out a girl on another table, in a quizzical sort of way Turns out she was at the same kibbutz in the same year but they wouldn't believe it was the other person in the CPT
