Apologies just reread your post and you say it was the manager who was expressing these racist views and yes think you should probably write a letter.

Celia Hammond do an extremely good job and I believe most of the people who work there are volunteers. Whilst racism in any form is abhorrent this is probably one individual and perhaps it would be better to speak to one of the managers there rather than casting aspertions on the whole organisation.

Why do you feel you need to know. It could possibly be because someone on the road is mentally ill and needs to be in hospital. Why do people feel they need to be informed on everything lately. What good does knowing do other than give a smug feeling of satisfication/gratification.

yawn

all the young dudes

lol lozzy but might be marketing ploy

people just don't see the irony in his music "you said you preferred handsome men but for me you'd make an exception" anyway lets end this as don't want a ridiculous ping pong match if you know what I mean. But wish I was seeing Neil Young Fleet Foxes next weekend instead of working nights.

I think you will find it's Sebastian Barry The whereabouts of Eneas McNulty ?spelling is very good and is like a prequel to Secret Scripture some of the same characters and give an insight into where the mother in law is coming from. A long way home excellent a really good overview of the Irish in the 1st world war and the conflict between this & rising Nationalism my view anyway.

yep correct thought it suited the hour

"you talkin to me cos I don't see anyone else" sic

slumdog millionaire can't remember his name book was questions & answers

mm. charter, sydenham girls, forest hill boys, prendergast, haberdashers, harris girls all cover the area

if anyones interested leonard cohen is on bbc2 now his london concert for those who missed it

unfortunately most of the "professional people" you speak of" have no loyalty to the area and move as quick as they outgrow their 1-2 bed flats and move to the likes of tunbridge wells, there are plenty good schools around but maybe not good enough if they're not frequented by a true dissection of the population

think you're talkin bout scopers 0n n unhead lane
