  1. Or you can of course download hooky CS4 from a website that lists ISOs. Do not support software piracy, its illegal and can get you in trouble. I do not support software piracy.
  2. Ah but its quite elementary my dear David. If memory serves me correct it was first used during by Liberated Mornington Crescent Society during the 3rd Glastonbury Festival (it was fringe gathering only reported in the local press). It was considered far too risqu? and puerile until its revival and inclusion in the mainstream game by the Royal Society in 1993. The easiest way to explain would be for me to take you through the moves we have seen above: Cockfoster's -> Nelson's Column -> St John's Wood Successful execution usually leads to victory within 6 moves.
  3. What is this trickery? I call for a steward's enquiry!
  4. DMC, It was to part of the wider phallic manoeuvre occurring at the time. I think i'll consolidate by taking this roadshow up north with ... St John's Wood
  5. I feel I must take the the bull by the horns, so without further ado I invoke the 1957 Alesbury Paradigm Variation and ... Nelson's Column
  6. Interesting stratagem ... For my part: Tottenham Court Road
  7. I learnt that the Peckham Job Centre Plus is a horrid place staffed by fools and its not worth the effort claiming the dole. BBW Re the Kajima Technique how is this more advantageous than the crane assisted top-down disassembly of buildings being done up in Town. I had watched the demolition of 20 Fenchurch Street for over a year and that seemed like a thorough but slow method. I assume all the metal was taken away for recycling.
  8. In the long term I can't see the ?1m+ properties multiplying exponentially in ED, relatively speaking that is. Rampant inflation or increases in house prices once the current down turn has ended may very well push the majority of properties above the figurative million pound mark. However this would have to be judged relatively to other areas of Town or indeed the Country as a whole. What are regarded as traditional million pound properties in the sub-urban context are medium to large detached or semi-detached houses, of which there is a veritable dearth in ED proper. Considering as well the tendency of developers (I use the term very loosely mostly to describe landlords) to covert a significant proportion of the typical ED terrace houses into flats and larger properties in to multiple occupancy homes; a practice I'm glad to say is in decline thanks to a planning policy change. It is hard to imagine that the typical ED house will in the near future cost over ?1 million, under normal economic conditions.
  9. I remember ... Africa ... Java ... Inca ... never having worn it myself, my only association with it is chocking clouds of the stuff after Year 9 PE. I think I was rocking CK One at the time.
  10. Actually there's a K&K at 30 St Mary's Axe (The Gherkin), the K&K there is an masterpiece of internal design, its won awards I believe. It may nor be closer 'as the crow flies', but may be closer and more convenient in terms of time from ED.
  11. Scrum V is an institution, as is Scrum V live. How do the English know about it? The secret of live league rugby on terrestrial is out!

  14. A timid reception thus far, I'm sure you can all be a bit keener! First: We must establish a committee. Volunteers please step forward. Beer may be provided. Granted undertakings such as this are a bit more of a challenge without a University backing you, but its worth a punt. After all after we for a Committee it will all be plain sailing, nothing has ever failed when a Committee has been in charge.
  15. The thing is that there is a good chance that a lot of pubs wouldn't even bother showing the rugby on a Friday night for the fear that it'll break the perennial 'dimmed lights - cheap DJ - loud music - candles' routine. I think the EDT usually have their priorities in order and I'll be camping out there starting Friday lunchtime.
  16. I've been thinking about this for a while but haven't really mooted it outside the house. Would there be much interest in a Dulwich Rugby 7's event at some point his summer? I've no idea how to even start organising such a happening. This is nothing more than a focus-group exercise at the moment. Please post away.
  17. The what now? Is West Ham not the local club? I know geographically Milwall and Crystal Palace are near by, but what if somebody wants to taste some actual success? I've no idea; I follow the egg instead, round balls just don't seem natural.
  18. Well this one has gone completely under my radar, but then again I don't work in marketing. If I were cynical I would venture to say that such activity would still go on due to lack of enforcement and difficulties in detection. In much the same way that it is an offence to 'fuddle' the VAT on an extension if you pay the chap in cash.
  19. It's just dawned on me ... Could marketing agencies be using this forum as way of gauging local responses to a proposed store openings etc? EastDulwichLady j'accuse! I propose that it is not your friend that works for the marketing firm but rather it is you and that it is your company that has been approached by Ann Summers to canvas local opinion.
  20. There's no such thing as class, but in case there is I'm from proper socialist working class stock.
  21. In answer; UNLIKELY. The only way to know either way is to interrogate the barman himself and not to canvass speculation from utter unconnected strangers on an internet forum.
  22. Oh Blue Banana has changed, well I must be getting old! Many moons ago in the land of Wales the Blue Banana was a shop peddling all forms of pot paraphernalia and 'free the weed' t-shirts, albeit one that is the most commercialised. But I'm down with the kids of South Central London and would be the first to welcome the new Blue Banana. No to Ann Summers! Its overpriced tosh.

Tony, the victim may have been local but there is nothing to suggest that the shooter was. I stand my my view point that london's underworld permeates many areas of the Capital, both the affluent and the underdeveloped. As an aside, consider the anecdotal evidence that the East End gangsters in the 'days of yore' moved to Essex when they 'made it'.
  24. Oh really now this is a step too far! If there's an Ann Summers in the area then a Blue Banana is not a million miles away. They would do better opening up on Peckham High Street and it would make better commercial sense.
