Sorry I missed it.

Although there are misconceptions on both side of the fences in this argument,

You're The One - SWV

This guy needs a job and decides to apply at the zoo. As it happened, their star attraction, a gorilla, had passed away the night before and they had carefully preserved his hide. They tell this guy that they'll pay him well if he would dress up in the gorillas skin and pretend to be the gorilla so people will keep coming to the zoo. Well, the guy has his doubts, but Hey! He needs the money, so he puts on the skin and goes out into the cage. The people all cheer to see him. He plays up to the audience and they just eat it up. This isn't so bad, he thinks, and he starts really putting on a show, jumping around, beating his chest and roaring, swinging around. During one acrobatic attempt, though, he loses his balance and crashes through some safety netting, landing square in the middle of the lion cage! As he lies there stunned, the lion roars. He's terrified and starts screaming, "Help, Help, Help!" The lion races over to him, places his paws on his chest and hisses, "Shut up or we'll BOTH lose our jobs!"

If the United States of America or Britain is having elections, they don't ask for observers from Africa or from Asia. But when we have elections, they want observers. Nelson Mandela

Taking your kids to the local village school, finding out it's the village of the dammed scenario

Agreed my father-in-law as it it is horrible.

Good one Dulwichfox:)

Most of you on this thread have made some really good points about this topic, I am not very savvy on the details of this but I can only go by what I see and how all this new legislation will effect a lot of people I know and some of them have already lost their jobs and seeking JSA and other benefits and others are working but can?t make ends meet. I also think we have become a less caring society ? I am ok jack I don?t give a stuff until it happens to me ? It is a bit like high crime wave when it effects inner-city area?s no one gives a crap until it effect suburbia then the community wants something done about it. Finally I can?t help thinking that the government are using these policies to deceive the public by finding someone to blame pick on the poorest in society focus on the work shy point the finger if you have no job through no fault of your own. I am not saying that there no work shy people but the majority do work it is very humiliating going to the job centre after you have worked all your life and you are made to feel like a scrounger. Divide and conquer that is what they are doing and we need to wise up to this.

Kalamity Kel ------------------------ That's not the issue at all! Don't know how many times it has to be said - it's the application itself that is the issue. It doesn't matter who comes and goes, a shop is a shop and people will choose to shop in it or not. It's a shame the focus is being pushed to who it is that wants to establish themselves in ED and not the effect the changes to the building, it's use and the impact on the surrounding environments. With this ridiculous focus I hope planning don't miss the real issues... Yeh right keep telling yourself that.

Great cockney actor along side Michael Caine, Ray Wintsone. Not alot of those types around:)

Maybe being the only black in the villlage:)

It not just about the demographics, of the area or Dulwich as changed over the last twenty years or the argument about the size of the delivery vans and parking etc?. it simply about some people in Dulwich feel that Iceland lowers the tone for them and they want to feel good about themselves having an M & S is simple let be honest theses are the same people that go to Iceland and come out with an M & S bag so that there snotty neighbours are not aware they shop there.

Depends on the cat Mrs B as you say you have to train them to do so. There is also the answer of putting a cat scarer in your garden.

Love the skip gate stories :)

My banana plant was nicked a year ago so I just have shrubs at the front of my house now, but there seem to be an interest in my white hydrangeas at the monment.

To all cat owners send them all down to Woodrot house, as cats like a good wood scratch on :)

Thanks DJKQ that will also be useful for me to pass on to my friends.

I am sorry to hear about your situation R C there has been some good advice and words of encouragement on this thread good luck. This also happening to some of my friends also with families.

There is a book called Disorder in the Court. These are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters - who had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place. Some of these are excellent ... Q: What is your date of birth? A: July fifteenth. Q: What year? A: Every year. Q: What gear were you in at the moment of the accident? A: Gucci sweatshirt and Reeboks. Q: So the date of conception (of the baby) was August 8th? A: Yes. Q: And what were you doing at that time? Q: She had three children, right? A: Yes. Q: How many were boys? A: None. Q: Were there any girls? Q: How was your first marriage terminated? A: By death. Q: By whose death was it terminated? Q: Can you describe the individual? A: He was about medium height and had a beard. Q: Was this a male, or a female? Q: Doctor, how many autopsies have you performed on dead people? A: All my autopsies are performed on dead people. Q: All your responses must be oral, OK? What school did you go to? A: Oral. Q: Do you recall the time that you examined the body? A: The autopsy started around 8:30 p.m. Q: And Mr. Dennington was dead at the time? A: No, he was sitting on the table wondering why I was doing an autopsy on him. Q: What was the first thing your husband said to you when he woke up that morning? A: He said, "Where am I, Cathy?" Q: And why did that upset you? A: My name is Susan. Q: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse? A: No. Q: Did you check for blood pressure? A: No. Q: Did you check for breathing? A: No. Q: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy? A: No. Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor? A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar. Q: But could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless? A: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere

Maybe not to you MP it is not insane enough but I think it is I never heard of such a ridiculous law who whoever seen a big foot does it actually exist.

law in Skamania County, Washington The harassing of Bigfoot, Sasquatch or other undiscovered subspecies is a felony punishable by a fine of One hundred Thousand Dollars ($100.0000) :)

He just a little fuck that all, let?s hope the police deals with him appropriately I am really tired of people like that where their lives are screwed up and they think its ok to inflict it on others.

Rab c eat shit
