  1. My daughter- "looking at that lot- I'm glad I'm not powerful.." ( she goes to the gym 3 times a week though)
  2. Malumba- everytime I've been on the bus the long conversations are some sort of Russian- so now I use the ipod
  3. I know several people who have been 'assessed' by ATOS and it seems that if a disabled person (doctors' and surgeons' evidence fully up to date) can actually get to the appointment on public transport (allbeit that they may take 3 days to recover from the ordeal) then they will be put on JobSeeker's.
  4. Once people realise that the area is getting richer then it will become a magnet for thieves- burglaries increase. The householders will then (usually) install better security- burglaries decrease. Also, after a home is burgled it is frequently burgled again fairly soon afterwards if nothing is done i.e. after the tv etc has been replaced and then the householder cannot get insurance unless the home is kitted out properly.
  5. Block of flats is probably the most obvious conversion- that's what happens to most closed police stations.
  6. The only problem we have had in 15 or so years is that after having routine check-up blood tests I was supposed to contact them to enquire after results (which I wasn't told) whereas if there is a problem with the blood tests then my experience with other surgeries is that they will contact you.
  7. All the horrible things that happen there are due to idiots who take risks on a practically blind bend. It looks like a very difficult layout to be able to put effective crossing places without demolishing Francesca Cabrini. As far as I can tell that school exacerbates the trouble because the parents dropping off and picking up causes many problems there anyway.
  8. Get in touch with these people they can send an adviser to your home http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/200020/advice_services/2969/rightfully_yours/1
  9. There's a Hole in My Bucket, Dear Liza...-Harry Belafonte
  10. I use ear plugs (the yellow and pink ones) and read and sleep- and hopefully I snore etc
  11. So if you are in ED and you see someone who looks familiar then they probably are famous- Nicola McAuliffe from Surgical Spirit anyone (awful show -saw it live at the BEEB) seen in Sainsbury's DKH
  12. The Sikh shop next to Sainsbury's local near the Plough give stuff away and what you buy is cheap too
  13. Not to mention the killing of street kids in Brazil and Colombia by the police! Some sort of clean-up operation. Wholesaledelivery of condoms and/or the pill might be a better solution
  14. Because those on benefits who are unwilling to work should not live in London or any other big city- property in London is under pressure should be for those who are willing to work. The unemployment rate in London is 9% against 8% for the rest of the country.
  15. If you send all the gold etc from the Vatican to the poor they will just breed even more and the problem of poverty will still persist- and if that Brennan fella gets to be pope I will personally kick him up the arse!
  16. My neighbour heard a noise outside his window one night and looked out to find a fox had climbed onto the roof of next door's shed and was walking up the sloping brickwork towards his open window. He has found cats doing this in the past but never foxes. Needless to say he was alarmed. Urban foxes have 6 cubs on average per litter whereas rural foxes have 3- people should be more careful about disposal of their waste.
  17. Do any of you who dismiss my idea ever venture out of ED to the poorer areas of london and observe the numbers who are languishing on benefits? Or do you know many people who claim benefits and work the black economy?
  18. I thought it was the sort of job you died on too- kind of goes with the territory- like monks and nuns- maybe he's totally lost his faith or maybe he has recently watched 'The Meaning of Life'
  19. Can't Stand You- Pap Smear

    Horse meat

    (And there's me thinking Tom was a bloke's name. The worst aspect of this horsemeat thing is the possibility that a drugged racehorse may have entered the foodchain and the people responsible for the horse meat are totally unscrupulous- but they may have done us all a favour in the long run.
  21. People who are fit and not willing to work but languish on benefits should be moved out of London forthwith and put in homes where there is no work out of the capital and other large cities
  22. Into the Darkness You Go- Deicide
  23. Joan Collins (how does she do it?)
  24. You mean put up with what I have H- no way- I'm off! Austria is low down on the list of destinations for immigrants and my German is pretty fair so seems like a good choice.
  25. A friend of mine used to wear her clothes in bed so that she would not be late in the morning. She always wore black and everything was always covered in fluff! (Must add she wasn't in bed with me -we just travelled to work together and I asked about the fluff once)
