I was referring to Farage - but I'm going to ignore him from now on. Hope they catch whoever did it quickly - as they said on Sky, no DNA just seems strange.

I catch the 37 bus at any time of night :) But then OP might not want to for various reasons I see cabs outside the old office in herne hill too

Very sad. I wish some people weren't trying to make political capital.

Hear hear Grayling should have gone - but he just went quiet for a day or two then started blaming unions in what I think was a distraction.

Today train seems to have lost power at Blackfriars. Can hear someone shouting down the train - no tannoy (are we back in the 40s) Loads of people move to Victoria line (no way am I going there - hub of horror) - 30 minutes lat eventually. I hate it that media is blaming last weeks strike for issues that are day to day.

You'd expect it to sync with the traffic lights - I notice them but I've never seen them red. The ones turning right out of Sainsburys often catch me - you have to wait for the next sequence if a few cars waiting.

Don't forget your download limit might be an issue. Might want sky unlimited broadband.

Not brilliant but OK (unless you drop it) Edit: My XBox 360 works too - with HD

70s and 80s my mother definitely used loose tea in a teapot You'd have to watch out you didn't get a load of tea at the bottom of the pot (not filtered either) teabags late 80s ?

Takes me half an hour to an hour to calm down/settle nerves to a reasonable level after any 'incident' Until something happens to you you can't say how you'd react.

Also strangely this court case wants to establish whether article 50 has already been triggered. Theresa - you haven't done it on the quiet have you ? https://www.theguardian.com/law/2016/dec/09/irish-courts-to-be-asked-to-intervene-in-brexit-legal-process-article-50 "Maugham?s claim will also question whether Brexit was triggered in October when Theresa May told the EU council the UK would be leaving. Since then the EU has appointed negotiators and has been behaving as though the UK is on a departure trajectory, Maugham says" Note: the EU chief negotiator said negotiations would end in October 2018 Ooooops :)

The Opening of the Crown and Greyhound and/or the Half Moon will be put back to 2018

Not being rude :) but I do find it annoying when some (obviously small business) people take all the Ice leaving none for me. And I can't take it first as I get Ice last so it won't melt.

Vinyl sales have apparently overtaken digital sales.

Law and Policy (twitter) "If Chewbacca lives on Endor, then this court must allow the appeal on Article 50" He doesn't of course, it's an attempt to confuse :)

Self-serving bunch > of champagne socialists...as per usual It's unfair to say every Londoner is like that. It's just there are lots of jobs and the economy suits immigration. Maybe a separate solution is required for London and the rest of the country.

You just have to try and use it to keep in touch a bit with those left.
