Auf wiedersehen pet. The orginial not the latest one. That's livin' alright at the beginning and 'Breakin' away' at the end.

Massive attack at Brixton was a bit crap apart from the presence of Horace Andy. I stood next to two Jews who found the whole pro-palestinian bordering on anti-semitism a bit much. Worst of all was De La Soul at the Jazz cafe as they wouldn't even do The Magic Number. In fact they only played one track from 3 Feet high and rising. Tw'ts.

Jonty for a top 4 finish is 13.5. He only needs to beat Ziggy and Carole. Surely to goodness....

I went the night Paul Weller did a guest slot. As I say I had a good night but the guy is such a bad singer that I felt a bit cheated. It's not really a band if they have to do a Victoria Beckham on his voice to make the album...

I had a good night too but now I can't listen to an album I used to like. They should get Heather from M people in to replace him. That would be 'hard to beat'.

No you tube. I killed the golden egg laying goose by overlistening to the Kersal Massive and associated responses.

Is that the one that goes 'staaaaaaaaaaaar fleet. do do do, do do, do do.'? Must be.

It's not for the feint hearted. If you are precious about your opinions you might as well get your coat now..

Gigs are good unless you go to see Hard Fi. Once you realise that he can't sing his own songs it makes the album a lot less enjoyable. I saw the Raconteurs at Brixton. They were qualo. Other than that I have never had a bad night at a Maximo Park concert including one where I lost my phone. A bit of an epiphany actually -I've been on gyppo as you go ever since and got my annual phone costs down to about ?30. Up the Park.

Hill Street Blues- great stuff. I also like LA Law for cheesey saxophone.

I reckon it has to be Minder but I am fond of the Jim'll Fix it theme tune too.

Agreed. It's not London-on-Sea. It's shit. People who try to 'escape' from London really get my goat. By all means move, go and live somewhere else but don't call it escaping. Think of it as quitting or failing.

Good to not worry about offending people intent on emigrating. Once people emigrate they are rarely worth keeping in touch with. New Zealand is like Wales. If you wanted to live in Wales then I would understand and it's a lot closer to London but no one carps on about it to the same extent. That's because a move to Wales isn't quite so hard to reverse. Faced with the option of traipsing back from New Zealand with your tail between your legs or just mounting a full scale pro NZ propaganda campaign most ?migr?s opt for the latter. That's why you shouldn't speak to British ex pats. They'll either annoy the crap out of you or convince you to emigrate and join the campaign.

If it's any consolation I'm crap at golf. Maybe I can claw back some credibility by missing tonight's final to get absolutely shit-stack leathered in any one of a multitude of East Dulwich pubs. Wake up confused and covered in bruises only to realise I came home without my wheelchair...

I really want them to do well. If the pub is changed to residential use because of lack of trade that would be a travesty. That said I'd like to know where on the customer feedback forms people requested short opening times and a cash only bar?

I was thinking of not watching Big Brother this year but I couldn't be arsed with all the associated showing off. Don't you get tired of telling people you aren't watching a nano-second of it? It doesn't really ring true when people bang on about not watching it. Watch what you want but don't get virtuous about it. I also like golf.

If you really think he'll win then at 44 he is a very generous bet. http://sports.betfair.com/Index.do?mi=20439748&ex=1 As I'm sure you know a ?10 bet at that price would give you a profit of ?430 if you won...

*Bob* just threw his balls over his shoulder and said what everyone suspects which is that as Brian is such a diamond and she so obviously likes him then her only plausible reason for not getting involved is that she's a bit race shy. It's not exactly Emily and the 'n' word but the accusation is now finally out there...

No promises but we'll see. Here is another link about the planning (again thanks SE5 forum this time it was Tommy D) http://www.southwark.gov.uk/Uploads/FILE_29193.pdf It should be settled on September 5th.

Oh the racist twin! I know the one you mean.

Good one Keef. You're the man. Now we just need them to change the website and my work will be complete.

Is the brainy one also the fat one? I think that's Sam. Any idea?

The only reason they haven't offended anyone is because they are incapable of coherent speech. They are fit though well one of them is. The other is carrying a bit of extra timber on her face which makes her look like she's got mumps in comparison to her sister.

'Last time I went up there it was shut' Ditto. They need to get a beautiful young Eastern European barmaid to work all the hours they can't be arsed to open. That might get things moving. But then who'd want to buy a flat above a busy pub... Bit of a conflict of interests perhaps.
