(and THAT thread would turn out to be a very long one I imagine)

Hi giddy - funnily enough I mentioned you to Mockney Piers the other week and we both concluded that the 2 of you had imploded when you finally met after all of the expectation Don't think there is a John Smith that posts on here tho - that a facebook friend?

Thanks for the clear-up Ray - we loves it when local business-folk join us on here Loving all of the ideas currently happening at the EDT by the way. Was that you that got told off by Brendon Burns at the comedy a few weeks back, about that female heckler?

Rich Hawley AND Depeche Mode MW74?? I thought I would be the only one with that combo Hawley at last years End of the Road festival was magical

Keef Tazzi posted on the Enemies of Reason thread that she has been following the debate from Portugal - I wish I were psychic but I'm not...

Do you know, Alan, you are spot on Funny five minutes there - thanks for the spot!

But how, exactly, could any of the therapists poke fun at his beliefs? "You know that polio, yeah?" "Yes" "Well you think you are so clever having fixed it don't you?" "er.." "and the measles, tubercilosis and the rest " "yes?" "they were never that bad a disease anyway" *sigh* "and you haven't found a cure for cancer yet have you????!" * bangs head against brick wall * Because Dr Fisher all but admitted he doesn't believe in the remedies but is all too aware that his patients do. And the reason that many of us won't just "lay there" is because we have a real fear of uninformed group-thought.

Not to mention that tazzi herself is in portugal

Is everyone now agreed that Strictteacher's post was serious? The more I re-read it the more I think clearly not?

Oooh citizen I could give you a big hug! I have to say first that I thought Bellenden Belle's post was very articulate and moving at the same time. And I agree with much of what was said. Ditto Hueguenot and other's on the unfairness of IHT Crude and unfair tho it is however, IHT is one of the very few brakes on house prices these days - if it were to be raised or even abolished then many of the deals being done on the threshold would disappear and prices move upwards even faster (notwithstanding today's apparent news that house prices in London have fallen slightly)

What? Did no-one watch it??

well to be fair a couple of the quizsters inhabit said road (although I suspect you are actually saying you know who I am - always a freaky occurence on here!)

Now the Brooker piece is hardly going to endear him to MW74 and Monica I know but can I just mention that I love his work anyway and have done for years (ie I'm not just saying that to annoy people) I've met him in town and he is considerably more humble than his writing would suggest - which sounds familiar We do have to watch the 2nd episode tonight don't we? Even if you think it will be a one-sided diatribe (even tho a 2nd side is always asked for) we will be speaking some more about it and if you haven't seen it.....

until episode 2 is shown anyway ;-)

Val's stock the "freestate" Tayto (most of the time anyway) I should also add that having advised people they stock Clonakilty black & white puddings, I have noted lately that stocks are very occasional

Ah so you are Upper Eastsiders like us too.. You're right - that would be pushing it walk-wise. Last time I walked there it was to visit Ganapati only to find they were away on holiday - bah humbug. It's definitely an area I like to go to tho, completely different atmosphere compared to the two "main" areas which surround it

Loz. . Out of interest, how far is too far? To walk that is

Not at all bellenden belle.. I know exactly what you mean. fresh food and fair treatment of stock = good. Over inflated claims based on moral posturing = less good

I have found the Donate button on bottom-right of this page and sent some british pounds

As we all know it will take a very special "one" to settle down with or....you know... a whole bunch of average ones

I thought this was a spoof post at first. . the forum is what we make it tom so crank up a couple of threads and well see how they go some people are on holiday but most regulars are round and about that said i cant believe you dont think the enemies of reason thread is interesting

Isn't that kind of the point of this thread? If someone has a negative response to my beliefs, and especially if they are someone whose previous postings on here have built up my respect for them, then I would be very wary of going down a fingers in ear, "la la la" approach By describing someone as ignorant, I would have thought that a perfect opportunity to educate. Certainly most of the "old school" brigade on here are curious enough to want to fill the gaps in their knowledge, no? Or is the problem that it isn't knowledge that can be imparted?

On the phone to orange broadband whilst also enjoying spoils of wed quiz. Cheers brendan.

Some top tunes today people - take a bow (I still get a kick when playing GTA San Andreas when I hop in a car to Janes Addiction "Been Caught Stealing")

But you need to be a member to play - no chance of turning up (as I found out one day to my displeasure)
