I want to know what it was supposed to have cracked up to be. And who decided? Is there a committee which sets the cracking up agenda for semi-urban neighbourhoods? And if so do I get to vote for them? How can I be expected to make informed choices, broadly in line with popular socioeconomic prejudices, unless I know how I am represented in the policy and governance structure? I not only feel unrepresented but somehow cheated and used too. You?re right, it bites around here. I?m doing one.

sneaky.

I'll post modern irony you mate. Makes sense dunnit?

Why you of course Kel.

What you need is a hobby. I suggest something like a drug habit or an S&M fetish or both. That should entertain you for about 6 months. When the novelty wears off try something like finding Jesus or Allah or if you have the energy think up your own religion. You can then kill a few months riding South London?s busses and preaching to the passengers.

So it was something similar to a spotted hyena but smaller and with a tail. The 2 things that spring to mind are: An Aardwolf: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aardwolf Or a Strandwolf (brown hyena): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_hyena Or an Alsatian. Getting warmer? Or, and I?m keeping this option open, someone slipped you some LSD. Not sure what either of those would be doing on Peckham Rye though as they are both from Africa.

Nope they don?t fit. I still slip into a 30?

So I though I best not make assumptions.

I'd like to know when he has.

What Keef said. Good thing about LL is there are a lot of place relatively close together so you can just wander around and settle where you feel comfortable. Although if you want a change from EDT and that part of the Lane then go just a little way up the road to the Magnolia. Everyone in there is well old. I?m talking 30 even 35.

What?s the matter with kids today - NOFX

Heavy. Now don?t Bogart that can. Man.

You speak a load of old boots.

I actually quite like Louisa. I agree with where her ideas come from but I find the hypotheses she comes up with quite frankly insane. But sometimes amusing.

Beckenham is quiet close and relatively well looked after for a council course. I play there in the summer sometimes. I quite enjoy it as I?m crap at golf* and it is quite forgiving. *Which is a shite game anyway.

Fuck the kids - NOFX

Shame! Shame on you all! I of course absolve myself of any culpability. Moving on though, I walked down Lordship Lane this morning and you couldn?t move for cockneys in flat caps eating sausage rolls. I suspect they paid too much for them though. A bit more on topic here, am I correct in assuming that the only place on Lordship Lane that you can buy a pizza is Speedo?s? And moving on from that, doesn?t it irk you that you really need to have an American accent to use the term Banana-Hammock effectively.

*taps Louisa on the shoulder* The style of pizza that is eaten all over the world these days was actually invented by the Italian population in America. But it does generally fall into what people recognise as ?Italian? food. I don?t think anyone assumes that it is some kind of 100% authentic and exclusive Italian food though, exotic and expensive in the lands off the boot, but eaten for breakfast lunch and dinner by the Italians. But you know, do share your insights, they?re fascinating.

I?m not even going to try to delve into how a type of food can be a personal affront to class sensibilities as I?m afraid it will take us on a journey into, at best, the surreal and quite possibly the frighteningly, psychotic and insane. I will say this though; Pizza is the perfect drinking food. It should be compulsory by law for all pubs to serve it.

Johannesburg to Benoni (these places are in South Africa) in 15minutes, the journey at normal speeds normally takes at least 30minutes. On the open back of some drugged up Lebanese gangster?s pick-up truck. A very frightening 15minutes. Shouldn?t have got on but I was stuck in the middle of Jo?burg in the wee hours and this psycho who pulled over (who I coincidentally knew from school) would probably have kicked the crap out of me if I had turned his kind offer down. Oh the joys of home. I once picked up a hiker on a long cross country trip in SA (Transkei to Cape Town). It turned out the guy was carrying and entire rucksack full of ganga. So that trip turned out entertaining.

Sounds fun but in all honesty if you want to have a drink on the common on a summer's evening why not just take a deck chair and a cooler box?

Yes well who can blame you, the beer is rubbish.

Deleted because I was being silly and off topic. Sorry.
