  1. Titch Juicy, no doubt it's matter of personal taste but have to say I find that piece a load of sentimental, self-regarding, stomach-churning tripe. I imagine it was done by a wannabe writer with a view to their portfolio - if so, misquoting Donne is pretty lazy - and I'm sure it left them with a warm glow of self-approval. I guess they'll have another crack at it today now it's known that imminent bankruptcy was behind it.
  2. Who on earth buys second-hand porn? I wouldn't touch anything in the library's 'Fifty shades' section without a pair of marigolds on.
  3. Tempted, but a couple were semi-local so I'd better not...
  4. Can't, on diet (tempted astray by a medic - I'm shocked). Was outside Audley End when I posted the above, but I managed to wrench the bike out of the magnetic field of its teashop and pedal to safety.
  5. Ir was rather discouraging, but by no means the worst. Someone change the subject or I'll need tea and cake...
  6. When he got on, in lingering detail, to his 'friend' who had apparently bumped off two women for their money and was working on another, I made my excuses and left. I just felt that perhaps he wasn't ready for another relationship.
  7. Even worse - his photo on the website was at least ten years younger, two stone lighter and with a full head of hair. And he spends the entire date telling you about the various women who have ruined his life, starting with his mother.
  8. Crikey! I've heard they advise not to use landlines when it's thundering as they can earth lightning. So lucky no one was hurt.
  9. On a new topic, that post in the Lounge by a company looking for someone from ED to work for them for four days for nothing at a festival in Sussex selling their coffee for them. I half hoped that big bang was God smiting them good and proper.
  10. Take a tip from Brixton tube station and play classical music. That should do the trick.
  11. *Cries of 'Name them! Name them!' from the back benches*
  12. From the police's point of view ED is South East Peckham anyway (seems 'East' is really 'east of').
  13. Also very lovely. Ages since I've done it but good memories of Eze and Cap Ferrat in particular.
  14. Seabag, are you going to give the knob-o-meter its own thread?
  15. Second vote for going inland a little, or take the slow coastal train round to Toulon for lunch and take in the views. I do love a slow train when I'm not working.
  16. If a tad pot/kettle.
  17. Thanks for that mental image.
  18. I do like 'juvenille', though. Sounds childish, but softer and fluffier.
  19. I have neighbours who barbecue nearly every day, talking very loudly until after dark and filling my garden with the stench of kerosene, smoke and burnt fat, which means I can't put washing out, sit in my garden or have any windows open that side. I'm sure they're having a lovely time but right now I loathe them passionately and I'm praying for rain.
