Not sure if the counter's going to be staying, but the whole feel of the place is very long and narrow - difficult to navigate especially if there are prams in there (not saying anything against prams! just that there's barely room for one person to pass if someone's waiting to pay let alone a 4x4) Agreed on the tables - the accoustics are shocking at the moment - metal tables and uncomfortable chairs. I like the place a lot, but if I go there on my own for lunch when I'm working from home, I have to take an ipod as I find the noise incredibly intrusive. On a not whingey note, I like both the idea of Ottolenghi and dark left-bank style. Wood is good and would soften the place and reflect the quality of the food.

Sweet! As for that Dominic West with his handsome face and brooding bad boy behaviour and general all round lick-up-and- downableness, nah, I could take him or leave him. The Donmar you say...?

Not in a skirt, DI Frank Burnside - there's a slim chance he might call you "treacle" while cuffing you

ooh, blue bols and lemonade, and for more sophisticated evenings, taboo and lemonade

jimmytwotimes - am I mistaken in thinking that one of those crimes was gang related and the other domestic violence? a coincidence of timing does not a dark underbelly make

Bah, 26% But like I say, not a real chav quiz - questions that the nouveaus might think would flush out a chav but not really. Like ????, I also said nan, when they were still alive (class / northern thing) I ate Pot Noodles at university (mmm, beefy) And I stayed in a super fabulous 5 star boutique hotel in Palma when I went to Mallorca. Weirdly enough, Everything But the Girl were also there and not sunbathing I'm going to sue

I don't know what to tell you - it was the back story (on the sleeve maybe?) and he was quite hunky. I maybe had a girl crush on Chun Li though - she made a cute little noise when she did her special move

On the cartoon front, and not even with a personality, I used to fancy Ryu from the beat em up game, Street Fighter

Brendan Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > If you want to be a sales arse of some kind or > some city slave or PR @#$%& go ahead and lie Well this PR cunt never told a lie to get a payrise and I seemed to do ok. That said, bear in mind that whatever salary you go in at will set the tone for the years to come. Go with expectations reflecting your experience, skill, tenacity and all-round brilliance and don't sell yourself short. And Brendan - seriously the world's gone tits up because of shitehawk bankers and crazy property markets, and PR gets the asterisks??? I'm gonna have to fight you. (Sorry bankers).

Regardless - that's one thing they won't know for certain - you don't have to tell them where the other place is!

Well the reality is that everyone does it, but if you get found out they could sack you. And you could get found out quite easily - when you give them your p45 it'll have your earnings on it - depending on the size of the company you're going to, the accounts team may be very far removed from your interviewer or they may not (oops, cross-posted with Mike) Best to be creative in respect to your salary - do you have any benefits / bonuses currently that you can work into a "package" that basically bumps up your salary by a few grand. Or tell them your salary expectations (I haven't been asked my actual salary for some time, but have been asked expectations). If they ask for specifics have something prepared about how you've now completed x amount of time since you qualified, you're now looking for remuneration that reflects that. And if all else fails, you can always play them off against one another.

A lupine gutstick sandwich? how scrumptious. that sort of thing would sell at ?100 a pop in Selfridges deli

BBW - I cannot tolerate such filth and innuendo. Although actually, perhaps you might be onto something. But even I'd draw the line at Piers Morgan. HB you lovely thing, I thank you.

Well if it was just chocolate, I would. But I got one of those cutesy sundae-style things that H&G do and it's full to the brim with marshmallows - don't like 'em.

My worst involved having to put a carrier bag full of sick through the xray machine at Newark Airport. I have not drunk a Manhattan since.

Have some Hope & Greenwood Easter eggs that I'd bought for my nieces and I've now been blown out. Rather than let them go to waste, I thought I'd give them to the children's ward at the hospital and, while I know it's not that far away, I am quite lazy, so wondered if anyone else was heading in that direction and would consider taking them? Know this should really be in the Wanted section but figured people would see it quicker here, and as time is of the essence...

I'm saying that Laurent is dead because I killed him with my great white shark, which bit him into two pieces. Poor little fish. That'll teach him. Sorely missed though. Edited to say that my french is quite rusty, so that might not be what it says at all.

zut alors, il me manque terriblement, bof, je crois que je peut pas continuer sans Laurent Comme il etait beau, avant que je lui ai tu? avec mon requin blanc, qui lui a mordu en deux pieces. Pauvre petit Poisson

Not too high though, a little cold is very good if you want to look niptastic

People who think that couching sexism / racism / any other ism in jokey banter renders it somehow acceptable The word "lady" used without a hint of irony other than in the expression "ladies and gentleman" The South London Press headline "Mum cleared of attack on lover with car" (or something similar) - unless her lover was also her child, which surely would be the story, what the hell has her parental status got to do with it? When I get on my feminist high horse and make people think I'm not really just a down-home fun-loving gal who has just taken delivery of a very exciting 7" 80s pop single that she hopes to play at Lucky Sevens tonight
