Paul Daniels in Oxford Street during the time he was on the box- some mums went up to him with their children to ask forhis autograph and he told them to 'p**s off'. Nice. Timothy Spall is chipper. And the lead singer Ben from 'The Rotted' is a real gent.

It still looks like it has the scaffolding around it to me. The architect is Italian- he had to come to London because they would not allow him to ruin the skyline of an Italian city.

There are always people snooping about. Frequently on my way to work at 7.45 ish I am behind scruffy vans crawling along roads around Barry and Crystal Palace roads looking in front gardens. This morning there was a man having a real good snoop around some builders bags of stuff on the road near an excavation in Sylvester Road. Don't forget if you've got double glazing you won't hear anything- Mikandnik is right- if it ain't nailed down....

The Goose- is that the one that lays the golden eggs?

Children of Bodom- Children of Bodom

Maybe Voyageur should change'its' name to Voyeur

It's the jet stream

Vile scum

Coma of Souls- Kreator

Socks- absolutely essential with all types of footwear except flip-flops

On several occasions when I have had a trolley in the supermarket, little children have suddenly appeared from around corners and from behind their parent and run straight into my path. This is making my rare shopping trips (I used to dislike them- now I loathe them)very uncomfortable. I have decided not to take care in the supermarkets,; I am going to plug in my i-pod and become totally engrossed in the goods on the shelves like the parents of these children left to run around unsupervised. If there is a collision- well -King's is just up the road!

There used to be a young man with a dog on the stairs at London Bridge in 1993 and he was begging one morning at 8.30ish. I gave him 50p and returned to the station after work to see him and his mates with a very large bottle of cider. I have never given anyone who is begging anything since but as he was there every day after that I expect he was making a few quid. ( and I am not surprised at the stabbing news from Stratford- I left there years ago- it's a powder keg)

Whatever happened to Wagonner's Walk?

On the BBC news this evening it was said that the recession is deeper than was previously thought. Sounds like a precursor to something.

Strip wash every morning- one sink of water. 4 baths a year. Honest truth. And you can't beat a pack of baby wipes at a festival.

There are loads around Clapham Common at all times.

The whole place is overcrowded

I thought it was something to do with another post when the soupdragon proprietor said she was closing up because the landlord would not renew the lease- I had a fleeting thought that she might have barricaded herself in!

I'm not in love- 10cc

Vocational courses should be replaced with apprenticeships and day- release at college to get the bits of paper to prove you were trained. The recognition of vocational courses (for GCSE equivalence) as a means of getting on to an A level course has lessened this year.

I didn't realise you could get dehydrated fags?

Heart of Glass - Blondie

Very upsetting. Another aspect of this type of thing is if, like us, you attempt to politely speak to the parents and the parents verbally lay into you in front of the kids. Fortunately for us the family moved away soon after.
