    Dishwasher

    This is a vile and base calumny, and clearly libellous. I had mint choc chip at the weekend (paid for with one of mys sisters, getting my mother in change: still not sure who had the real bargain there :'(). Anyway expect my chap popping around to serve the writ any day now... The new dishwasher is the dog's bollocks!

    Nothing at all - if you're volunteering to come round and do it? *still* smug B)

    Dishwasher

    The new Bosch we just got uses about 2/3rds the water of all the other comparable ones! *looks smug*
  4. I think Jagielka should have gone instead of Dawson: good cover for both central defence and midfield..
  5. James, The Council has done a lot of good work improving many pavements and adding dropped curbs at various junctions over the last few years. I am not sure if this is even your area, but wonder if you could advise me how I go about finding out what plans there are for adding dropped curbs at the junction of Ryedale and Forest Hill Road? It seems anomalous this had not already been done, given all the additions and improvements to many roads close by. As it is, crossing this road can be quite awkward. Thanks SimonM
  6. Sky now claim the eminences grises who run Liverpool (into the ground??) want 'Onest 'Arry 'isself as manager...Blimey..
  7. Actually if a vendor had uprooted plants from the garden you should threaten to sue them for breach of contract, unless it had been previously and expressly agreed that certain plants should remain. Plants in tubs are a different matter.
  8. Madame Scoop is ever so helpful, and would most certainly offer you a polystyrene cup of water to pop them into whilst guzzling her product!
  9. Scoop's coconut ice cream ( as sampled yet again this afternoon...) Lick it and weep! (as the Actress said to the Bishop B))
  10. I'd choose Virgin Atlantic over BA *anytime*
  11. I Okay you win. Clearly I don't go to the right parties B)
  12. It is a sauce not a pickle, much like the OK Fruity you brandish yourself further up :)) And really you should not be seasoning your misfired insult with references to crisps of any flavour....*shudder*!
  13. The Facebook thing is especially bad when Mom or Gramps or their dawg have passed away (or died) And yes to the "Stonewall Penalty" thing too! But still on the subject of football I really hate the way the term "assist" - as a noun - is slowly creeping into journlists' and commentators' very limited vocabulary. There is no such thing in football! The Americans tried to introduce it on one of the occasions Greedy Grasping FIFA allowed the World Cup to be played there. Bollux to that !

    On offer

    *would sell his mother for Scoop's coconut ice cream!*
  16. Oh I too had an invite from this "person" But I get so many from strangers anyway I paid her no attention...
  17. Oops sorry - I meant they sold this sort of stuff when they first opened and were very much biased to being an Italian deli. 350gms of Spring Espresso from that company would be ?9+ with delivery charges...
  18. He was clearly ripping off the Brian Jones look though! :))
  19. 1. The EDD started out as a really good Italian deli, stocking all/most of the items you list I think? In fact for the first couple of weeks it only had fresh pasta and cherry tomatoes in the window IIRC. Clearly ED won't support the purist approach? 2. There are loads of good independent coffee bars around. In no particular order, Jack's, Blackbird, the French cafe, Blue Mountain, the Peckham Rye cafe...And do Caffe Nero really sell 500gms of their espresso beans for only ?4.95? It does sound a bargain, unless it is actually 250gms, in which case the 250gm bags of Monmouth espresso from the French Cafe is pretty good too..
  20. Only 2 episodes left now: wonder if there'll be a second series?

    "Lost" finale

    I was vastly disappointed with it.
  22. Blimey yes! Let's hope Fabio includes him in the final 23!
  23. Apparently the writers thought long and hard about having Sam being the one welcoming them all the pub a the end, but finally decided it would have upstaged Alex/Keeley Hawes too much. (I see their point, but cannot imagine anyone upstaging Keeley Hawes B))
  24. Watching that again, you still wonder how Liverpool managed it! :))
