cheap German Goods? oh God. Do they sell Blue Nun and Black Tower? What about the Co-Operative bank? ED is big on the Co-op. Funeral parlour, co-op supermarket. I want the bank. That would mean I wouldn't have to endure the trawl out to bloody Lewisham to get to my nearest branch.

where can you get a slipmat for a vintage record player? or does it not matter what type you have?

Fopp are the best. I won't hear a bad word against them. Mr MW74 boutgh a 60's vintage record player off Ebay for a tenner!! It's called the Elizabethan. Orange and cream leather with carry handle. It's very cool. MP get yourself one...

they don't do nice wine!!!!!!!!! i say it once, twice.....

ah I see, well in my case then I would have to say NTP2....

I thought she resigned?

okay what's the NTV....sorry

Bring them in via Peckham Rye station to give them the 'feel' of the place. Make sure it's towards to the end of the retail day, because that's when you get the treat of mutton and goat; that has been hanging from a hook all day in the sun, sold of cheap. You can pick up half a goat for only ?9.99. May be a problem storing it when you go into the pub....then again depends what pub! If you get to The Castle I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem.

(I have no interest in the local football team. Appologies in advance for all those I upset.)

Blue and Pink! say not!! I thought they were green and yellow. Oh no, I don't want blue and pink colours on LL.

sorry will stay on topic Mr Admin!!....please no lounging....

long ladder? oh my god I'm short but am able to reach the sign that's at street level! Excellent. Lets BBQ on. Lets have a board amnesty and BBQ all the boards in the mile radius of my house. ooohhh look at the pretty flames, aren't they high! (NB I have no previous criminal convictions and have never been interested in arson)

can i employ you to be my special board remover, Karter? I'm a strong lass. I'll rip them boards dowm alright!...and then watch as the wall crumbles onto my feet.....woops.

I've just rung the property agents to complain and vent my anger at these things. Apparantly I'm 'stuck in the system' (tell me about it love) and that's why they keep appearing every few months. I'm going to make a bonfire with it next time, take Brendans lead.

can i ask if it's normal to have these bloody boards up 4 times!!!! in the past 10 months!! they keep appearing, I keep ringing the agents....the last one I wrenched out of the wall myself in a fury. :-S

yes you're right Snorky. I like the fine things in life, but can't have them all the time. I've got my health. Worth more than cash.

that was really touching Bawdy_Nan. I have no kids but put my acting career on hold because of falling in love too. I won't be on that elusive property ladder for some time either. But the sinking feeling at not being sure of my longeivity in the flat I rent now does make life very very tough. It makes it worse when the bloody property management company the landlord is with keeps insisting on putting up their 'managed by' boards outside our flat! Advertising to the world that we're not on that 'ladder', making us feel almost like transients.

There's no attitude but a bit of banter. No one has been burnt! And everyone bounces back whether they are 'fine' forumities or not. I am extending a hug/kiss whatever, to any fine forumites who may have been scorched before. I hope it wasn't MD74 that was responsible for the arson!

yes and apparantly they will be selling excellent value desinger(ish)clothes!! (see article in Observer magazine)

I'll blow you a kiss then....;-)

oh come on Disco Dex don't give up. Lets have a hug like Snorky suggested. And then get back on thread.

paintball?

Sure change happens as it is in ED, but you don't need to be bolshy in the way that opinions are expressed. They'll always be a 'them and us' with everything in life. They'll always be those shouting "Get outta town, boy". It's human nature. Just don't forget that, we are, human.

thank you Brendan, the voice of reason.

Have a look at what others on this forum say DiscoDex. It's not just me that rasied an eyebrow to your thread(s). Please, lets all continue with our discussion of local issues and opionions.
