I like the flicking a match to set pool of petrol alight idea - we were actually just coming out of the new batman movie when our so called offense occurred so were in the mood for apocalyptic violence. But seriously - isn't there a period of grace after expiration of parking ticket - like ten minutes or so - in case me and the warden neglected to synchoronise our watches before commencing offending behaviour? Or would it just be ordinary common/human decency and thus I am not making sense?

Just got back from Peckham Rye Lane Car Park + a parking ticket. The lifts were not working and by the time we realized after waiting around and walked up the stairs with kids in tow, dodging used syringes and excrements, we were 5 minutes late. The parking warden was busy writing up the ticket and although we explained the situation to him and appealed to his common sense and decency (what fools we are), he said "it was now out of his hands" - must be the same friendly guy Louisa encountered this morning. Of course we are going to contest it but a horrible hassle all the same.

they are now saying 12.30. Yeah, right...

no water since 7am this morning... not a drop. getting a bit tedious really.

Last I saw TJ was on the night of the 9th April 1992, having a pint at the Foresters. The night they lost to John Major. Anyone remembers the Foresters?

Highwood Close aka Upper East Side - no vouchers. I am now anxious. Mind you, doesn't take much to make me anxious.

But has anyone ever actually managed to get a baguette from Blackbird B? By the time I get there, they are invariably out. Same at Crystal Palace. However, on the single occasion when I did manage to get a baguette from CP branch, - months ago - it was really nice.

sounds perfect... would you be able to give me some numbers or links? Thanks for suggesting..

is it still possible to have a fairly unspoilt holiday a la Durrell? Daughter is great fan and keen to go. Any suggestions?

Faryl Smith... surely she's not 12. She can't be.

Aldwich from top of Lordship Lane on the 176. 60 mins depending on traffic, got to be one of the ugliest, most depressing routes in London, Walworth Rd - EC. Tried cycling until knocked off at EC by minicab driver. Looking for a job nearby. Any suggestions? Also do Liverpool street: Brompton - Train - Brompton.

Tough one. But it has to be the dancing duo. A trainee solicitor? I respectable middle aged sikh? Excellent. I thought both the drag queen and the dancing duo had a lovely supportive group of friends, too. Awwwwwwww.

Thanks "ratty", might take the plunge. Any recommendations for GP 'best practice'?

Silly question really... but having been with mgmp for 18 years now as a family, we finally are also considering to move - but if we move to a different practice, will our notes follow us? The practice saw us through the birth of the children, some chronic or ongoing health stuff and only the idea of having to start all over again is holding me back. Has anyone actually changed gps?
