  1. I can also very much recommend Fernando. He has just spent the morning doing some heavy digging for me and has done a great job. He was very easy to contact, fixed up a time with me for today and turned up promptly. He worked non stop for 4 hours, was very polite, neat and tidy and the end of the garden was looking so much better when he left. I have no hesitation in recommending him and would use him again.

    accents innit

    The vast majority of yanks can't do much other than yank. Steve Jones will be next boyo unless Catherine Zeta sorts him out with her voice coach. A very strange insular country for the most part (USA not Wales) And of course the heart bleeds for Cheryl ............
  3. Barclays stockbrokers do an online account which has relatively low dealing charges
  4. Try www.englishcountrycottages.co.uk It does huge places as well as cottages.
  5. Yep most of them too - I have a very high ABBA tolerance and can forgive them the odd dodgy album track for the singles. Feel the same about the Beatles.
  6. Ok flapjackdavey, I will give you Thank You For the Music (tu)
  7. Went to Hakkasan last week for lunch (I was not paying). We had failed to get into any of the good restaurants in Charlotte Street (all fully booked) so I was surprised to see that there were only a few tables occupied at Hakkasan during the whole of the lunch service (and we stayed a long time!). The sevice was very good but I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the food, some of which was really not much better than you can get locally. I would not put it anywhere near the top of my list which is currently headed by The Square in Bruton Street.
  8. All of 'em - every single one >:D
  9. No snow at all here in town either. Is it snowing again in ED at the moment?
  10. Excellent news. Now how about seeing what can be done to reverse the (frankly) barking mad decision to abolish the London Bridge to Victoria service that serves Denmark Hill. That route is the backbone of Denmark Hill's services and very well used by people working at, or visiting, the Maudsley and King's College hospitals.
  11. Giggirl, have you checked that Alexander McQueen (RIP) designed the tracksuits before you leap into this one?
  12. Is anybody contemplating letting out their house during the London Olympics 2012?
  13. You can avoid the toll road either by continuing on the south circular to Croxted Road (first one after West Dulwich station) which will take you up to Crystal Palace parade or by turning right at the mini roundabout before the toll and then left at the end of the road (up Alleyn Park)which will bring you on to the top end of Croxted road. Alternatively just go up Crystal Palace Road (which runs parallel to LL) and miss some, at least, of the road works.
  14. The whole front bumper system from an Alfa owned by someone in my building got taken - windows smashed, hood opened, electrics ripped out to stop the alarm and bumper taken - nice!
  15. My garden pond is currently a hotbed of frog sex and has been for several weeks. I was coming to the conclusion that this was purely recreational sex but the huge pillow of frog spawn that has appeared in the last few days now leads me to believe otherwise.
  16. I think if you have the jacket (pretty conclusive proof of ownership) and an external verification of the price of it, it is not reasonable to insist on a receipt. If you sued her, you would not need a receipt to prove ownership as you have the jacket. Requests for receipts are more usual from insurers when the item has been stolen. But even they these days will not press the point if you have other evidence. Hope this helps.
  17. There is a comedy night at Hoopers Bar on Sunday I think if that is any good for you.
