Crimbo?

Can someone please let me know the subscription address/details? I'd like to get in at the current price for a year or so before submitting to the cover price. And of course if I subscribed it would give me an opportunity to read the periodical. Also to the naysayers and negative waverers wasn't the feature on sourcing leather sofas from Bermondsey Market a welcome and daring diversion from all things SE22? And the RayBan feature? Clubmasters, back on trend? Who knew? I say apply a little absolution, Abs'll enjoy it and probably get a couple of pages out of it in the next edition.

Aah so 'Pogues' Lawlor is back in town. It was only a matter of time until he revived the old 'GOSH! look at me I'm walking' routine. Learned all he knows from his father Aloysius 'Pogue Mahone' Lawlor whose counterfeit Val Doonican style self-assembly rocking chairs caused mass outbreaks of 'JesusMary&Josephery' and a spate of votive candle burning ('Thorty pince? EACH! Sure God almighty 'tis no wonder the Father has a BMW. May the Lord forgive me for allowing the Devil to put such a thought in my head') amongst the grey-headed 70 plus female Gaelic community that a worldwide wax and wick shortage was declared and priests all over the land had to forgo. Forgo what you ask? Not for me to say. Though maybe for them to admit... Luckily my craic squad of Paddy Wagoneers brought Lawlor Snr to justice for the VD rocking chair caper and offences concerning Delaney's donkey and Paddy McGinty's goat, for which he was, deservedly, given a custodial sentence. The auld sod. Anyway keep a weather eye out for 'Pogues' and a tight grasp on your wallet/daughters/mistresses/civil partners/rude b@stards you happen to share a bed with. Anyone spotting 'Pogues' leave a message on this thread and I'll be on it as quick as a Kerry man throwing aside 'Finnegans Wake'. Members of the public are warned not to approach 'Pogues' as he is very fussy about the company he keeps. When he 'cuts' you, you'll know all about it. Best leave it and let some pros get involved.

EP, Mozza would have put out an EP when under pressure to do so. And with Hay! And like as not had sketches made of the two of them and their collaborators and distributed among the cognoscenti. Early MTV if you will. Mozart also may have glanced toward Haydn and ventured "I have a notion concerning a musical project, the concept of which is an engine of general sorts made of base metal and of..." Joseph informed him "Enough with the metal nonsense, already Wolfgang, go with what you're doing it's not enough you should make your mother proud"? "Act like a mensch"!

So, without going through the fine detail, it's all down to car bastards that I can't pick up that nice chicken and bacon sandwich, those lovely lentil sour cream chilli crisps and a tangy bottle of lemonade to wash them down with as I come home late after a hard day's service? It would seem so. Can't underestimate nimbyism's territorial span. Or so it would seem.

Can't be doing with the Flaming Lips on a day to day basis but enjoyed this. Yoko's good. 'Stop the violence' she says, I concur.

Serena if I was you you I'd get in touch with the local authority and ensure that it isn't actually a typo. I've got me me mine an' it ain't there on it. Could be there's an Assport you got to have you don't even know you should'a had all along an' all you can do right now is vote in them regular elections an' them special Ass votin' rights'll be plumb closed to you. An' as we know if'n you don't have the 'Ass' option come election time, you plumb disenfranchised!!

I don't have a clue what a Saniflo is. I DO know that I've fallen a little in love with Originaled during that story, I challenge anyone NOT to have. You got me at - "Yer man was in there ages, I called to him after about 5 mins asking if he was ok he stayed in the facility for about 10 mins. During which time the other had completed the hedge, tidied away and moved on." Wonderful stuff and kisses to all your cheeks.

Aaah, who gives a flying Carrie-style fork for DB's reading list? In this week's NME Paul McCartney makes mention of him. I long for the day when they collaborate and put out a 45 under the group name of the MaccaDameEEAAZ. Paul did say he liked hip-hop so...

About 3,160,000 results (0.63 seconds) What I got when I Googled Addicted to EDF... I then consulted with Heston Blumenthal (the HB initials? no, no coincidence a member of the society) and I got him to divide the 0.63 by the 3,160,000 ( I'm all about the concept, he's the mathlete) and the end result is a new seasoning. We'll probably use the word addictive in the advertising, so thanks.

If I can just say, of course I have once bought a burger from a high street supermarket, can we consider the correspondence on the consumption of horsemeat opened and closed and allow Mick M's thread to continue without any (more?) unnecessary hilarity? You're welcome Mick M. Let us know when he's running, I'll put my little all on him. Edited - punctuation, you're the divil...

Yes, it ALL feuds round these parts back then.

I'm willing to bet the value of my Nectar points - just north of ?15.00 I'll have you know - that there are probably excellent reasons that economists/strident-voiced representatives of the smarks (it's what I'm calling super market chains from now on, hoping it goes what the youngfellas are calling virulent) who'll justify the premium prices in their teeny-tiny-cute-as-a-bugs-ear Mom 'n' Pop stores because of Keynes and his aggressive demands or whatnot, all the while curdling the milk in my muesli of a morning, as I wonder aloud at my BOSE radio if their mothers are proud of them. I'll of course ignore their blandishments and stick with the 'shower of bastards attempting to put out of business the actual independent local shops who started the model of long opening hours where we expected to pay a premium because that was only fair and you knew the family running the place and didn't begrudge them a farthing of it' theory. The Nectar card? Yes I know.

I have to go with south London's own philosophers, The Godfathers and their song Birth School Work Death. Crudely, I'm three out of the four. More nuanced re the song, it'll be, always learning until dismissed. "I know one thing: that I know nothing" - you've got to like Socrates for that one and also William Goldman for paraphrasing it as the great aphorism regarding the film (filum for my Irish readers) industry "Nobody KNOWS anything". Mind, talking of The Godfathers I like that 'I Want Everything Song' of theirs as well. Bit Aleister Crowley in philosophy that one. Video's magick an' all.

Oh ARSE! There'll be more people able to see the Bookmonger's stock before I do. And they might put their prices UP UP UP because all the posho bastards from ED will flock there. Just because it's Waitrose. BLAST THEM!!

Anything that'll bring more 'footfall' (I believe that's the term) to the good people at Bookmonger is AOK with me. Well done to the good people at th Waitrose organisation.

But these things seem to go together like chickens and fair isle and artisan cheese and carved wooden blocks. Which of course could be utilised in the slicing of cheese. Not judging in any way. Not being cynical in any other way. Merely BEING in A way.
