  1. Georgia, you're getting so many bumps: is it your birthday?
  2. Good for her Tillie - I'd like to know why, when there is a light that will never go out there is also a dearkened underpass? Morrisey was nothing if not a charming but contrary genius
  3. Morning Sean - did the resident forum photographer turn up? Or failing that, did anyone have a camera?
  4. the the drinkers were lairy
  5. I am sure I am not alone in feeling very sorry for the guy, despite the fact that he has made some bad decisions. Did he really want to be Prime Minister for all that time and then realise that when it was handed to him by people who respected him, trusted him, hated him and were scared of him, that he just wasn't up to it. A tragic personal tale
  6. When the forum went on a pub crawl...
  7. Ah, HonaB, thanks for the "Withnail and I" memory. Me, I lack the decisive memory for thnings like this but - I saw "Leon" for the first time last week and the "SHIT!" exclaimed by the corrupt cop when he realises the ring he has been handed by Leon in a dying embrace is the pin from a grenade on Leon's belt was a pretty profound piece of profanity.
  8. Context is all. I don't mind swearing one bit. Can make you laugh or make you scared. It can make you sit up and listen. I love humour, and I get upset by hatred. If the profanities are linked to humour i embrace them - but if they are connected to hatred I don't like it.
  9. They are up and running. Joined them up at the Canning for the off, but with two little ones in tow I was never going to get very far. At the start line was Brendan, Floating Onion, annaj, Hannah6_6 and Sean Mac. fare thee well, honourable forumites. Onwards and downwards I expect.
  10. surely, this being the EDF an all, a definate article.
  11. Looks like some work on the memorial has started - anyone out there who cankeep us posted?
  12. of that, no one can deny
  13. someone get a tranquiliser gun, or a banana.;-) But anyone you know with a "fashionable" name? Talula loses her name
  14. A case of mistaken identity Sean, or the first evidence of forum groupies. Nah, probably just your natural endowment.
  15. Missed it Sean. Heard his album of last year(?) was pretty good.
  16. As the rest of us would have to concur
  17. Feeling perky? rip it up - orange juice twangy guitar par excellence!
  18. Talk about these things at these place: Films: EDF cinema Books: What is East Dulwich reading? Music: What is East Dulwich Listening To? Music2:The Music Room Football: Football Focus Cricket: Cricket Musing
  19. But does anyone remember that version of Robinson Crusoe that was screened in the mornings during the summer holidays. Boy I just loved that show and it seemed to go on and on and on, measuring out the endless summers episode by episode. Oh, and The Clangers was total TV genius.
  20. but the title of this thread surely calls for a little more detail than that provided by the OP. otherwise it is that sort of scaremongering "householders beware" type post that adds to people's sense of everything going to the dogs without adding anything really constructive. for a start, where?, as Pierre asked, would be nice to know. And is this the first time in however long.
  21. If you want to look at it like that - yes. but I don't think it is quite the same as a private company offering a single service or product. A society is a unique entity and not like a commercial enterprise. Basically you cannot be outside of it. So we don't employ the Government in any real way. We contribute tax and parliament administers it on our behalf but to my mind that is not the same as paying for a service.
  22. Panorama Arena Play for Today My parents have a lot to answer for.
  23. Brendan, sorry about this, and I haven't really thought this one all the way through, but, in principle, I disagree with the notion that tax is a charge for a service. I believe that tax is your contribution to society.
  24. Just bumping this - in order to get a date: Sorry annaj but, so far for the 10th Aug: me, Asset, Lozzy, Bellenden Belle, Strawbs(poss) anyone else?
  25. The likes of whom we should deter edit for momentary madness
