Hi,

My friend Clancy has 2 tickets for "Chic" at the Royal Festival Hall + 2 tickets for "Studio54" afterparty. I'm posting this message on her behalf because Clancy lives in Fitzrovia, so no EDF account; poor lamb.

CHIC:

This Saturday, August 3rd 2019, 7.30pm, Royal Festival Hall, 2 tickets @ ?90.00 each (face value); front stalls centre.

STUDIO 54 PARTY:

This Saturday, August 3rd 2019, 10.30pm, Queen Elizabeth Hall, 2 tickets @ ?50.00 each (face value). ...Meltdown...Funk...

If interested, please call Clancy on 07973 695943

In these topsy-turvy times every vote for Labour - far from giving May a bloody nose - will be claimed by May's government as a vote of support for its policies; its Brexit policies, to wit. This already happened last year after that 2017 general election, with the hard-right MPs crowing about Labour voters' support all over the media so I'm neither guessing nor speculating what Friday's right-wing headlines will be - should Labour vote do well tomorrow.

...Seeing as to date Jeremy Corbyn either imposed a 3-line whip on his MPs to vote with the Conservatives on anything Brexit, or ordered them to abstain, not a hard claim to spin.

WoW, you two made short work of that - congratulations.

...Draws on an e-nicocig*....

*I was cool once; not anymore, obvs.

Local elections have always been ?the? traditional time to concentrate main parties' minds. And, as Brexit is the only game in town, this local election will be watched more closely than any other I can remember and, as I'm a dead-centre remain voter, I'll most certainly not care to give succour to either ideology-constipated extremist Front Bench.

Brexit is very much a local issue anyway: government's own economic analyses show Brexit will harm every part of the land = this will inevitably translate into shortfalls in local funding.

My favourite turquoise string of beads just fell to bits in my hand: would anyone know of a local-ish restringing service? I'll be sooo grateful, thanks in advance,

A family member is expecting her first baby (girl) later this month and I'm looking for a pressie...

Ideally, I'd like to find a stockist of fun, creatively designed - but cosy - baby clothes; either in our neck of the woods, or on line.

- My two daughters are now in their twenties and so it's a long time since I paid any attention to baby wear, but when they were little I bought them a lot of OshKosh.

Any recommendations gratefully received!
