It's called the "unrated version" Loz and he seems to be wearing a suite with sunglasses. Louisa.

I've just watched it on YouTube, and personally I don't find the lyrics offensive. What I do find offensive, is Robin Thicke's dancing. Louisa.

I love blood on/in meat. A burger bun with blood on doesn't sound great though, even though I could neck a length of black pudding without whincing. Louisa.

Unfortunately Siduhe, those of you who are locals wouldn't be able to provide enough business for this place in any form to survive, chain or indepedent. And as others have said, once the fan fayre of passing trade dies down, you locals will be the only people going in. Louisa.

A DeLorean DMC-12 with white leather bucket seats keeky. Broom broom. Louisa.

I think Robin Thicke has bigger things to worry about now that Marvin Gaye's family have successfully sued him for copycat tactics over this song. http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-31825059 Louisa.

As Jeremy says, it's all about location. Footfall is key to any business, especially a fragile and competitive one such as a pub/restaurant. Believe me, if I had the money I would buy it because I hate seeing it as it stands, but that's just the horrible reality. Louisa.

Of course in its day it served it's purpose as a stop over for weary travellers and drovers heading to and from London, hence why it's there. Things built up around it to its detriment and this is where we find ourselves in 2015. A shame, but that's progress. Louisa.

I agree with above. Hemel is a nightmare by car, and this is coming from a semi regular driver to Milton Keynes. I've always driven via Vauxhall Bridge through Victoria to Hyde Park Corner, then onto the old A5 down the Edgware Road and up via Kilburn, Cricklewood and onto the M1 (alternatively you can do a right at the lights on Maidavale and go via Lords Cricket Ground and Swiss Cottage). Either route could take easily 2.5 hours in rush hour, but ironically less than 40 minutes in the wee small hours. Louisa.

"It follows" saw it at the weekend, brilliant retro indy horror with a 1970s vibe to it, including the keyboard enhanced soundtrack. Good all round story and high suspense throughout. 4/5 from me. Louisa.

Can anyone tell me where to get a decent fillet steak around here now? I always prefer it blue but very few places will cook a fillet blue. Louisa.

That stretch of Copeland Rd where you go round the bend (near a car wash) and meet the junction of Consort RD. It never fails to send the willies up me, especially turning onto consort into oncoming traffic with buses and all sorts. It's an accident waiting to happen. Louisa.

My money is on Australia. Louisa.

I'll be happy when it's replaced by Harry ramsdens tbh. Louisa.

I'm so confused. This whole forum is bonkers. Louisa.

Real_Louisa I don't think their party cones contain Cod fillet, in fact I'm sure it's an inferior white fish. Louisa.

Doesn't stop you posting though does it quids? ;-) Louisa.

My work quids? This entire thread is a parody based on the ridiculous dog thread in the main section! Trust me, if I were being serious I'd have at least put the effort in. Just thought if everyone is moaning about pointless crap over there I might as well rip into them on here with more pointless crap. Come on, give me SOME credit here. Louisa.

Can I also propose for the vast majority of law abiding dog owners if you come across said whiny irritating middle class blow-ins and their kids, who can't tell the difference between a friendly dog wanting to interact and an aggressive one, then it may be advisable to tell these poshos to "do one" if they start wailing uncontrollably at the site of a wagging tailed pooch approaching to say hello? Or at the very least, don't bother apologising to these bizarre people who clearly live on a different planet to the rest of us, also known as "cloudcuckooland". If this doesnt work then a two fingered salute may also suffice (to the adult of course). Same applies to posh bell end joggers with their heads firmly stuck up their backsides, running around the park like they're doing the marathon and whinging at the site of a dog coming over to say hello. Don't like sharing the park with a friendly dog and its friendly owner? Then go for a walk somewhere else, preferably miles away from anywhere the rest of us can see you. Now back to the real world. Louisa.

Now orange Wednesdays have been knocked on the head this is as close as the lovely folk of ED will get to a Pizza Express bogof deal on pizza and cinema tickets. Louisa.

I think in conjunction with the dog thread we need to have an open discussion about the control of pesky wasps when spring arrives. The little buggers flying around stinging middle class kids making them cry and the poor parents can't do a thing about it. It's a disgrace. I think park wardens should be held responsible by planting flowers everywhere. Louisa.

I think the cinema is timing it just right for when Nandos opens. Louisa.

I bet keekybreeks is one of those annoying posh joggers that get in the way when you're trying to have a nice relaxing stroll around the park. Louisa.

Jeremy the voice of truth speaks! Louisa.

I personally am more offended by someone who would even have an issue with a dog being near them if it is only being friendly and not causing a problem. If the child is upset it's more than likely due to a learned experience from the parent who dislikes dogs. A friendly dog approaching in a controlled environment with the parent nearby should be encouraged for both parties to create better interaction. Adults who have issues with dogs tend to be weird middle class pedants who just like to moan for no reason in particular. Those people should be banned from parks in my opinion, for the good of everyone else both human and animal. Louisa.
