Debuts: The Ramones - The Ramones The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses The Who - My Generation Defining third Albums: Blondie - Parallel Lines Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet (I know, I know...) Elvis Costello - Armed Forces (debatable) (I'd also echo the earlier mention of Manic Street Preachers' Holy Bible, which leaves all their other releases for dust).

James - closing the platforms in favour of what?

Thinking about it, I wonder how he convinced the BBC he was qualified to appear on the show in the first place. He's managed to generate a lot of publicity for himself.

I'm sure Alessio Rastani will be running a conference some time soon for a not-so-reasonable price if you're interested in picking up some tips.

I don't think he works for GS, I think some people have just assumed that.

It's already a huge improvement. I think the Shard and the wider "LBQ" development is going to be positive, and start spreading central London out to the South.

They are a profitable business, I'm sure they are already more than able to cover the costs of whatever work they are doing - be it maintainence or development. This is about making money. But then, that's what all businesses do (or at least try to do).

Sounds like great news to me. This should ensure that it remains a viable business into the future, and the hotel will be a valuable local facility.

In the vast majority of cases, the suffix is not needed. The debate is petty and largely irrelevant.

Mayweather's a pro. He saw his chance and he took it. Ortiz shouldn't have looked away. I don't know what he was thinking.

I don't think renting is a mug's game at all. You don't have to worry about maintenence, you have the freedom to move when you want, your money isn't tied up in an asset. It has advantages.

The parts of Peckham and Camberwell which border Dulwich are more convenient and possibly more desirable than the Southern reaches of SE22. It is true that in these roads, there are more properties which aren't looked after - but things are definitely improving. Selling the property will probably be a bit harder, partly because they won't show up when people search onine for property in East Dulwich. But when you buy, you can expect a small saving compared with a property over the border.

Sorry to hear about this. Unfortunately it has become dangerous to use your phone when walking alone at night.

Scaffolding looks awful anyway, I really don't see how this would make it look any worse. There are things in life worth fighting for, but I'm surprised anyone thinks this is one of them.

Surely testing drugs on animals is just common sense. Isn't it just a simple question of whether you value human life/wellbeing above animals?

Parks close earlier in the winter. Surely nothing to do with cuts. Not long before it's getting dark at 6pm...

Unfortunately some people on this forum are rather self-righteous, and will jump at the chance to accuse someone of racism - such nonsense has been directed at me more than once. I suggest you ignore it. I've had a few skinhead friends over the years (mainly through the ska and reggae scene), so I think I know where you're coming from. I'm not actually suggesting that you should change your appearance, I was just saying that Huguenot's point is logical.

Although I still take H's point in a way. There are some morons around who are always going to make the association between skinheads and neo-nazis, and there's an easy way to distance yourself from it...

3G dongle - maybe something like ?20 a month for a decent data allowance.

I've been abusive a couple of times on here, sometimes I stupidly let myself get angry or frustrated. Still, it's not the same thing as bullying. Bullying is persistent harassment.

I've never noticed any bullying on here either. There are some people who are over-sensitive, some who are rude, others who insist on having the last word, and a small number who join just to wind people up. But not bullies.

Not been to Butlins, but I think the beach at Skegness is quite nice. The town itself - not so much.
