  1. I work in a building in ED with numerous taps in different rooms. In 2 particular rooms the water is foul, undrinkable, really nasty. In the next room the tap water is fine, as is the rest of the building. No idea why this is so, asked around and no one else in the building knows, we all just live with it. Don't accept that it may just be the hardness that you're not used to, there may be an actual problem. Ask a neighbour if you can try their water or a friend to second test yours. If there is a problem, call Thames Water, you pay water rates after all.
  2. He jumped into the garbage truck,from where Molly or accomplices threw a cadaver onto the street, then drove away. Season 3 definitely been commissioned, tho' I'm not sure how 3 episodes can count as a season.

From what I saw, this would be impossible. Holmes eyes were fixed on Sherlock the whole time, the body was in motion as it fell with arms and legs flailing, and the body they put on the gurney was definitely Sherlock, not Moriarty. My best guess would be that Sherlock took a calculated risk. His flailing limbs and overcoat would have slowed his descent and he landed in a manner as to do the least damage possible. The next scenes were months later, after a recovery period. I was disappointed his head popped up in the final scene, would have preferred him to be dead.
  4. Hi Thomas, happy to help with homework; 1. Final resting place after a long journey around the country, where I chose to raise my children, probably one of the best places in GB. 2. Baby blue 3. Wood and brick and leaf 4. Triangular 5. Staff at Dulwich Library 6. Saturday, twilight, after a days drinking. 7. East Dulwich Tavern 8. Curry 9. A warm, bright sunny weekend. Hope that helps :)
  5. I'd love to see a good indian deli. A chocolate shop sounds nice too, but an indian deli would get me coming back on a daily basis.
  6. The old fish and chip shop 'The Codfather' is being turned into a posh fish and chip (and more) shop. Bubble and Squeak, the old cafe, will either become an arts and craft store, a kids clothes shop or a nail bar. Or another Morleys, maybe a Tesco express. What would people like to see there? No Waitrose nonsense please.
  7. Hi Ludoscotts, I was in soho today and noticed as I passed so high soho on Berwick street a giant skull at the far end of the shop. Don't know if it was for decoration or for sale as I didn't venture inside. Hope this helps.
  8. Prince's ninth, Diamond and Pearls, not my favourite and probably his last great lp. Felt's tenth, Me the Monkey and the Moon. Yo La Tengo's eleventh, I am not afraid of you and will beat your ass, best title ever hands down. Acid Mother's Temple thirty fourth, Lady Pink Lemonade. Had to wiki that albums position. I'm finding it hard to find bands in my collection that get beyond their first or second album, yet alone a decent third. There are a few tho' that shine with longevity (Super Furry Animals, Ash, Boredoms....)
  9. 3 life changing debuts; Spacemen 3 - Sound of Confusion The Doors - The Doors Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced 3rds Prince - Dirty Mind White Stripes - White Blood Cells Bongwater - The Power of Pussy Dinosaur Jr - Bug 6ths Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation The Kinks - The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society Super Furry Animals - Lovekraft Can anybody do 9ths?
  10. The-e-dealer said "But maybe if Judge Dread wandered the Park we'd have it treated better." I can second that! Judge Dread and his gardening posse.
  11. An article in the paper today reporting on a paper in Science, obviously inspired by this thread. It says that homosapien usurped the neanderthal because of greater numbers, food preservation and better weapons. So we ate better, fought better and were better looking so shagged more! Case closed!
  12. Hi Ted, Haven't heard of the book before, may check it out for some holiday reading. Hi Mockney, I did have food preservation and farming in my list also, I'm sure there are many other factors too, probably how we developed as social groups, how and where we travelled and our ability to use tools and think through problems. In all it was quite likely a gradual and inclusive process, one little step leading to another, one area opening up the next. Of course, all this is conjecture, none of us really know. It could have been aliens. I don't believe it was omnivorism that helped us develop. Or teeth. Or sleeping with hebetic girls. Or Aliens.
  13. Hi Rosie, to quote from your same article "Chimpanzees are largely fruit eaters, and meat composes only about 3% of the time they spent eating overall, less than in nearly all human societies." Which is what I said. You all seem to be arguing about teeth, meat and puberty and not really telling us how, relating to our species, these factors could have helped with our evolutionary success. I'd like a little more elucidation please. Just to reiterate my original argument, I don't think it was teeth, omnivorism or puberty that helped us advance, but the way we prepared food through cooking and preservation. These methods meant we were able to extract a greater energy from foodstuffs and introduced pulses and grains into our diet. This freed us from the tyranny of a hunter/forager lifestyle and fostered farming and a move away from feast/famine in early human society. I believe that this was the secret of our success.
  14. Hi Rosie, Chimps are mainly herbivores and will choose fruit above all other foods, gorilla and chimpanzee teeth are very similar, though in both cases their canine teeth are more pronounced than ours. I don't believe teeth really have helped out in our evolutionary progress Cattle also have canine teeth Heinz. Binary star, gorillas also have a similar age for puberty among females, and in parts of Africa a similar life expectancy (barely 32 in Swaziland according to the CIA World Factbook, which is shocking). So I don't really see how this helped. And DJKQ, is this the CATASTROPHE you were alluding to?
