A Wimpy would be utterly awesome. I mean awesome! If it turned out to be a Wimpy 'Bar' then ooo... My name's on the the first Chocolate Bowler.

A great music venue (the back room) but an utterly shite pub (the front 'thing'). Unpleasant, uncomfortable and any old time I went there prior to going to see a 'pop' group up the back I never had a good time. Favourite show? I'd have to say, Screamer On The Hill.

I've had really good service from them lately, been a punter since the early days when they started opposite the Uplands. The 'phone triage I agree can be frustrating but I've found the receptionists I've spoken to have been reasonable and polite and when I've emphasised the urgency of my situation I've been contacted fairly promptly and given sufficient time to discuss my needs and offered a face to face appointment if I wanted one. I haven't gone through all of the thread, (don't think me apathetic. I just made a NY resolution not to be all that arsed about all that sort of thing). But on NYE the duty doctor went out of her way to push for an X-Ray appointment at Kings because she had concerns about me. Got there ended up in A&E for a while got a clinicians appointment on Monday and was reassured that all is well. Today the doctor 'phoned me to see what the consultant had to say. I felt reassured by her following up and well looked-after. I'm sure some have good reason to be miffed and fair play to 'em, but the DMC should know it works for some of us and while not perfect, I think they're mainly good.

"A pogrom's what they'll get, Lewis and it's no more than they deserve and if it goes 'up them' then so be it". I'm thinking, good opening line for Herod The Great. Lewis being a humble orange juice drinking lackey. I think it works.

Someone has to be Herod The Great. And I'm volunteering for it in the same enthusiastically mindless fashion Corporal Jones would do in the Dads Army comedy. 'They don't like it up 'em' Corporal Jones would say and we'd laugh at his spirited old-fashioned enthusiasm. The same phrase from Herod The Great's mouth? What a complete and utter bastard. You know it. I'm thinking I'll play him a punch drunk Detective Inspector Morse combined with Stalin. Though I am prepared to take notes on the role. Humility's my middle name.

bus shelter count downs..........
HonaloochieB replied to jane1's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Arse Biscuits to using a portable telephone, shouldn't have to, ever. In the absence of accurate paper timetables then wobbly LED readouts all the way, in my experience mainly reliable and accessible to all. Except of course the 484 disinformation at the Camberwell Butterfly stop. It does nothing but turn that bus shelter into THE BUS SHELTER OF LIES!.!.!. I haven't read many of the previous posts so if I've repeated any points then well done to the pointmakers, good to see some right-thinking people hereabouts. -

Television Chefs targeting ED?
HonaloochieB replied to NewtwoED's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I heard this from even further away and I reckon all of the above have got it wrong. The chap was gently and very melodically giving a rendition of Guantanemera, which the lady in question mistook for the football chant 'There's Only One F In Fulham' and loudly directed the singer to "fuck off back to CRAVEN Cottage". Easy mistake to make. -

A cartoon crow, approached by another and asked " Where?s my dinner?" First crow's response is "Sorry mate you?re too late! The best peas went to Farrows!" Knew how to make ads 'back in the day' BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM Esso Blue. That was another one. Used to be processed peas and blue paraffin as far as the eye could see. And glad we were to go to bed of a night sated by the former and kept dangerously warm by the latter.
