To be fair to Keef, I think he set it up out of sheer boredom during a bad day at the office and just can't be arsed with it now.

Actually they aren't my pals although I have got to know Keef recently and fine chap he is too. I look forward to meeting the other two at the next Forum drinks if either of us turn up and introduce ourselves. Fair enough though with the rest of what you say, why post a thread on it though? Are you suffering from blog envy? Perhaps you should start one of your own.

That's a pleasure barrymarshall. I've still got quite a bit of Augustus Pablo on vinyl including East Of The River Nile on his Original Rockers album. Top stuff.

You should get out more Alan, you've obviously got too much time on your hands to be posting constantly on here and reading other people's blogs and then finding the time to slag them off. I don't think they want to be famous. If someone wants to write a blog that is their own affair. Many people do. I remember reading about Dulwichmum getting a publishing deal out of her blog in the South London Press and the very best of luck to her. What's it to you anyway?

No, I didn't get mine.

Yeah, Sean I've not got the new one yet either. Love that song, She Don't Use Jelly, I like the Drugstore version better though strangely enough. Here's an oldie from the man who put the soul into the Melodica. Augustus Pablo

I'm happy with a draw at Anfield, most teams would be.

Curry and Rice Girl, that's brilliant! Here's some early M.I.A from 2006. Still sounds great to me. Bucky Done Gun

Yeah, but the Gallaghers from Oasis obviously. Shameless - brilliant. Oasis - shite.

A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce. The car is parked on the street in front of the bank, she has the title and everything checks out. The bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde for using a ?250,000 Rolls as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then proceeds to drive the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later, the blonde returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, "Miss, we are all very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multi-millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?" The blonde replies....."Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?" Finally, a smart blonde joke.

Or if you're like the Gallaghers mono-browed. Oh! sorry I'll get me coat.

Yeah wasps with small wasp syndrome are right little bastards. Sting you as soon as look at you they would. Bah! to them. I don't mind bees, at least they make honey but wasps are irritating little thugs.(6)

Well, if he logs on or lurks around this Forum you'll probably be out of luck CWALD. Gonna try and make it for a while myself but am rather skint at the moment so we'll see.

Yup, my niece and her husband went to Belfast over the weekend for around about the same price. Oh! and noticed a trip to Glasgow for 20p.

And Ken Bates too no doubt?

Did a Bob and Terry (The Likely Lads) and managed to avoid all knowledge of the football results so I could enjoy Match Of The Day in a proper fashion. Only thing that upset me was Liverpool equalising in the dying seconds of extra-time against Spurs. Bah!

Leeds United are indeed doing amazingly well and look set for promotion whether they get their 15 points back or not. Ken Bates deserves a pat on the back for persevering with the Dennis Wise/Gus Poyet management partnership as there were I seem to remember an awful of their supporters who wanted them out at the end of last season.

Indeed yes in full agreement. No commercials is the major plus and the quality of it's programming. Of course I sometimes think that the licence fee is a bit of an outrage but realise you can't have one without the other otherwise or we'd end up having commerical breaks every ten minutes like they do in the USA.

Nine and two correct scores. Bah! If I had a pound for every time that Tottenham have conceded a goal in the last minute over the years I could afford tea and sandwiches at The Chandelier. Should have won the game at Anfield but ended up holding on and conceding in the dying seconds...bloody typical.

It'll be too cold to sit outside on them soon anyway. Brrrr, getting a bit nippy out isn't it.

I'm in agreement with James. It's all a tad dull in there in the men's section and the only thing I thought looked nice was the man bag...but I also baulked at the price tag.

Err...that'll be me then Keef? Great game though, our forwards were fantastic.

With you there Mockney. I've always been lucky in having plenty of support from family and friends. Anyway, the problems I had were a long time ago and it's not really something I'd want to rabbit on about on a public forum. Ooh! is that the time? Right time for a pint.

I'm not really sure I can answer your question Gerry. When people have been ill with addiction/dependency problems like myself and CWALD you are usually referred to a counsellor either through a hospital like myself or your own doctor. And, other times people will only try and deal with their problems when they have hit rock bottom. Of course there are plenty of other reasons why people have counselling but as you say yourself it's not really part of our culture. People will only seek help if or when they are desperate and have no where else to turn. Also, I can't be sure that in your own attempt to maybe popularise and make your profession more acceptable to the general public that you may be preying on people who are already vulnerable.

So did Jude Law and the fat one from the Chemical Brothers.
