In fact, because it's so lovely, have a look http://www.rachelunthank.com/pictures/tour06/london.jpg

oooh a softening of stance - let's make the most of it ;-) UC - several posts back after your plea - I'm sorry, I tried!

Shep Bush Empire and Bush Hall are 2 different venues - the Empire we all know and love/hate Bush Hall is much further down the road - externally unassuming but beautiful inside, it's a great great venue

And this from a man who has to get back from White Hart Lane late at night! No less true for all of that mind. I love the venue but does no-one else find the sound a tad muddy?

Has no-one read the local gem "Fine Dining at The Vale" by Hugo First?

As I've said before, not having the facts of the case I'm not going to give my opinion on the whodunnit aspect but I do wonder if anyone on the forum has changed their opinion of any newspapers since the focus shifted to the McCann's Before: Suffering but dignified shot's of the parents + heart-wrenching pictures of Madeline After: Evil looking pictures of a haggard mother + more angelic shots of Madeline "fair and balanced" indeed

lol! On a bad Friday morning that has me in stitches.. a pint to young Brendan immediatment

Those are the 2 I usually use but there is also the Magdala, The Castle and the Forest Hill Tavern (in SE22) Spreading the net a bit wider The George Canning is making a play for sporting action with a HD screen but that might be just rugby related

9:30 am.. drum roll.... anyone turn up?

or pressing CTRL when clicking on the link opens a new window as well I believe Good shout tho, and a fine addition to the forum if I may be so bold

In years to come (and not that many IMO) Rooney will be the subject of many a "where did it all go wrong" article in the papers Dripping talent, his attitude has always been suspect, but with the sort of attention he now gets his head is turned even more He will become larger, injured more often, score just enough crucial goals to be in the team only to go missing in tournaments All my opinion of course, but I have been predicting this trajectory since his Everton days and I stand by it

Great review Keef - cheers I totally empathise with the "do I really want to do this, I'm tired" feeling but when quality starts up, everything is forgotten

I am scheduled to be out in Wapping but might try and make second half at the Canning

but to take Ultraconsultancy's point, let's shift the meat/fish debate to a thread already open here for example: Butchers and save this thread for it's original intention

Am I out of the loop Louisa - do you know Dave or have you just blindly categorised him JUST because he shops at William Rose And you may not mind being termed a bigot - have a look at the definition again - it's what you are trying to call people who shop at Sopers and Rose

Absolutely love that Kevin Drew track MP.... great shout This one is more well known through his brother Christy Moore, but this is the younger bro and the songwriter Luka Bloom - City of Chicago

twas mentioned in the great gigs thread as well On the one hand, compared to Madge and Babs recent gigs, it's not THAT bad (out of my league tho) but whether you are up for it or not is kinda moot, considering the likely demand Plus, bottom line is I agree with Keef on this one - I'm no big fan of them (heresy tho that seems to most of my friends)

There is a lot of truth and weight in what Louisa says - what's missing is the idea of embracing change and welcoming relative newcomers Where we differ is this idea of migration and people moving - I, for example like doing it, and experiencing others. My hometown in Ireland has changed tremendously and all for the better because of migration to it... If William Rose is seen as a "newcomer" then so be it - I bow to no-one in my advocacy of walking to good local shops and shunning the car but with a place as good as Rose on my doorstep, why would I? (and I ask that with an open mind, not to ne "funny" - if there is a genuinely good reason to go the distance I will)

and what does "hmmmmm" mean Asset?

...-are really beginning to hack me off! Not only do plenty of them jaywalk, but those using legal crossings... well they aren't exactly helping traffic flow are they? Then I find out that (who else!) Ken Livingstone wants more of us to walk everywhere - this is just soooo typical of his politically correct efforts to prevent motorists from getting where we want to, when we want to, with the minimum of fuss Surely these pedestrians can see that if they got out of our way, we would get to where we want to quicker and then be out of their way???

And just when I was about to say it's good to have Louisa back once again.. no-one is ripping off anyone Louisa - if you go to a Bermondsey 2-for 1 meat market (and hands up I haven't, but if I have been to many a butcher in East Ham and Peckham) what is the difference - is it just price? I for one don't get too worked up about the organic tag - but a well fed, well cared for animal (let's say a chicken that doesn't spend it's whole life enclosed and sleeping on it's own faeces while pecking it's neighbours eyes out) is not only preferable from a moral point of view, but from a selfish, health and taste point of view Are you an advocate of the Asda ?2 chicken? Possibly, if one is on the breadline and has little option, then it serves a purpose - but to be able to afford better does not mean you are ripped off I had a friend bemoan the whole "rip off culture" of good meat so I cooked a meal with 3 breasts - 2 decent breasts and one cheap one (she said she preferred cheap). Cooked on it's own the cheap breast might have looked "normal" but cooked next to the 2 decent ones it was so obviously wrong (hissing water, strange colour etc) it already looked dodgy. When she tasted the difference that was teh end of the argument The queue at William Rose has always been consistently good fun - ie a civilised Q. An uncivilised Q? You really need examples? Are you coming to the birthday do Louisa - please so. When you meet some of us I'm sure you won't be so quick to judge (As for the woman who owns the property next to William Rose - it would appear that she lives upstairs (judging by the frontage) in which case why is she so different from anyone else who lives upstairs in flats above property on LL? And braying yuppies buying venison for dinner parties? Nowt wrong with venison but as someone who doesn't do parties and is (I would hope) far from a yuppie, such generalisation would get short shrift from you if it was pointed the other way

Errr... because like most people behind the wheel they have a false sense of security and confidence, allied to a victim mentality?

I think that's mockney's problem loz - a thimble of beer may be an issue at present ;-)

I was actually going to suggest the same EDA - heroic effort on your part (not quite so hot on the others mind you)
