    It's the first letter in Mott The Hoople. I know that for a fact.

Shampoo? About time there was a heavy duty surcharge on it. 'Put it in the bank, or go lank' That could be your motto.

Admired his honesty but yes, > the drinks were expensive. In 2007 you visited The Palmerston and paid for 'a couple' of drinks with credit/debit card. At the time I reckon the cost of a pint in there was approx ?3.20ish. Jesus two of you having drinks at the bar. USE CASH. COME ON MAN UP. Using a card for beer at a bar makes you look like a frail. > > The second time, just over a year ago, a mate and > I decided to eat there.

Jesus, how drunk and pissed-up on booze were you? A tip for the future don't be using that debit/card too much at the bar before you decide to nosh. For future reference send out to Kebab And Wine for chips and salad when you find yourself in that situation. I reckon ?2.80 max, and a half quid tip, should see you right. > > Have always found Franklins to be good for a nice > dining experience without getting massively ripped > off. So I won't get massively ripped off in Franklins then? I'm so there

And Brixton's Ritzy is almost as convenient and considerably less crap, and the Clapham Picture House is actually a little cinema, though of course a little further and in that Ham. The one that sounds like it's a village with the sort of malady that 60s and 70s musicians got sorted out out with a course of penicillin. Bloody hell Moos, sorry for rambling on like that, I'll only get back on the good foot if I get the crispest possible reply from you. It can be terse even, I shan't mind that. Frankly a bit of terseness would probably work wonders as far as...Oh, Bugs Bunny just stuck his head up and said 'This ain't Pismo Beach'. Classic. Sorry, got a bit distracted at the end there, jiggered if I can remember what I was going to suggest "would probably work wonders as far as". Honestly I've a mind like a Prime Minister these days.

  9. Nobody's Child - Hank Snow A song that could draw tears from a wheelbarrow. "I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child I'm like a flower just growing wild There's no mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child I was slowly passin' an orphan's home one day And stop there for a moment just to watch the children play Alone a boy was standin' and when I asked him why He turned his eyes that couldn't see and he began to cry People come for children and take them for their own But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone I know they'd like to take me but when they see that I'm blind They always take some other child and I'm left behind I'm nobody's child... No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish I could die I walk the streets of heaven where all the blinds can see And just like for the other kids there'd be a home for me No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles nobody wants me I'm nobody's child"

Or a second helping of dessert as it was also known. Someone told me they heard Desiree was working in the House of Commons. Or did he say working the House of Commons?

    I think the way to fix this is for us all to put our differences aside and regardless of class creed gender and trouser size send best birthdaay wishes to Ian hunter on the occasion of his 70th. I can feel the ire dissipating already.
