  1. Personally I advocate dancing in the street after chucking out time.
  2. Same Architect do you think? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Millennium_Dome_%28zakgollop%29_version.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:DeathStar2.jpg
  3. >:D< I especially like the way he fights off Ming?s henchmen using his Football skills.
  4. Well they probably would not have had a chance if it hadn?t been for the long running dispute between the bosses and unions of the Empire?s Civil service over the use of private contractors in the Death Star?s construction.

  6. I?m not surprised. The X-Wing was designed primarily for use in little or no atmosphere with no gravity. Launching it using rockets without the wings in the locked position was lunacy.
  7. New private message on The East Dulwich Forum
  8. I watched Magicians with Mitchell and Webb. Absolutely loved it! Completely silly, which appeals to my sense of humour.
  9. Ah yes. The old, ?Got a spider in my trousers and a wasp buzzing around my head.? dance. It is a wedding favorite. Anyway spiders are horrid. I still have nightmares about these things though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parktown_prawn They have a horrible habit of crawling into your shoes over night.
  10. I think it is a very worthwhile institution. If only for the invaluable service it provides internationally by delivering objective news to people in countries that do not have access to it because of totalitarian regimes with state controlled media. I know many South Africans and Zimbabwains who use the BBC?s website and radio broadcast to help them filter through the state run propaganda that gets fed to them through the local media in those countries. I?m sure that in other parts of the world where the situations are even worse the same applies. Although having said that it is not completely immune to turning the odd blind eye to the a little bit of international ?foul-play? by the UK.
  11. I?m so ?East Dulwich? I grow my own clothes on the compost heap in my backyard.
  12. Because of wasps or just generally Mockney?
  13. Perhaps he supplied the new chairs from his shop in Peckham.
  14. Pound for pound the average human is almost 100 000 times bigger than the average spider. They are just absolute masters at psyching us out.
  15. There you go having a go at the cobblers again. They are an important part of the East Dulwich economy and some of the long term independent retailers trying to survive in the face of the tsunami like onslaught of gentrification. Like wot this lady in the Times has been talking about.
  16. I think you?re right there CWLD. Throw in a few inappropriate comments about the female anatomy and you will have the Western male?s equivalent of achieving nirvana
  17. You are correct there Paul, Ian Wright is a striker and Jade Goody is quite clearly a naturally built goal keeper.
  18. If you want to try to get away from the touchy-feely image that most men have of counseling I would suggest holding the sessions in a pub. May not help for booze related prblems though. :-S
  19. Energy company advert? I missed that. I must have been in the bog at the CPT. It was all a bit nerve racking that rugby match. Great result though! (He says to the sound of his ancestors turning in their graves)
  20. Yeah I reckon she must live here. And like Spangles says. Sums up why we are seriously considering moving out to Kent.
  21. Who does Jade Goody play for?
  22. Brendan

    ED's Soap Box

    Yeah, no, well. You know what really bugs me. People who think the perfect time to start searching through their handbag/pockets for their tube/train ticket is when they get to the ticket-barrier at a busy station. Thereby blocking the way for the rest of the people in the station. I mean can?t they see the clues that they are going to need their ticket handy. They?re in a station for fck sakes! It is not like the barriers are invisible either. You can see them from the time you get into the station. But nooo idiots walk directly into the thing and then think, ?What?s this? My path is blocked. That?s ok I?ll just stand here and dig in my bag for a bit. Lucky my sphere of consciousness is so self-centred that the existence of the rest of the people in the city doesn?t intrude into it.?
  23. (it cost abot ?80 in total for 4 adults and > 4 kids to travel to Cornwall and back by train > this way this summer)or as a last resort if i > really did need a car, I'll rent one. Driving around the Cornish countryside, the beachside drives and the hedge-lined lanes, is the best part about going to Cornwall. Best done in something small and rear wheel drive that seems like it is going faster than it really is. I take enough trains and like in my normal day-to-day life. When I get out of the Smoke I like to drive. I?ll plant a tree or something.
  24. It was Danny Divito not Jack Palance who played the Penguin.
  25. Why? Gerry's questions have been sincere and valid.
