I saw this the other and thought of this thread. A 1969 Rolling Stone review of a new band's first album. Good guitarist apparently, but obviously not destined to go very far. http://m.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/led-zeppelin-i-19690315

For similar reasons my fatber bought some Sennheiser ones for about ?50, if you're going mutton there's not much point buying expensive gear.

A teacher from a school in Eltham once told me she had a girl in her class called Labia.

There's no reason why pizzas can't be healthy. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-18663969 http://www.eatbalanced.com

My usual problem with old school caffs is so few of them serve a sausage worthy of the name. The worst I've ever seen would have to be Rock Steady Eddies in Camberwell, chewing on a candle would have been preferable.

Another vote for Jeff Beck, Peter Green and lately I've been listening to Joe Bonamassa. What about Ritchie Blackmore? Think of all the big hair rock he helped inspire, where would we be without that?

Or wait for the pretty new exhausts which have been fitted to the new Boeing 787 to be fitted to all planes.

Somehow I just knew you were going to post that Jeremy

Oh good, I'd heard the land had been sold and they were building hundreds of flats so just assumed they were closing.

Sorry typo, meant to say closes, not closed. The developers behind the shard are building flats on the site. The owners of the shopping centre (Tesco and British Land) are extending at the expense of half the car park.

The new electric agas can be switched on and off as desired. Years ago I spent a few days working with someone who installed them (I think was actually a Stanley we installed on that occasion) and electric was his recommendation.

Maybe they could extend the traffic light warning system on food to take into account its class.

In defence of the bottom half of the Internet the new yorker recently published a fascinating account of the background of the brown moses blog which started out in the guardian comments secriin http://m.newyorker.com/reporting/2013/11/25/131125fa_fact_keefe http://gigaom.com/2013/11/19/the-rise-of-brown-moses-how-an-unemployed-british-man-became-a-poster-boy-for-citizen-journalism/

Great news. A couple of weeks ago a group of us had the lamb for 5 at the Canton Arms Sth Lambeth Rd, the best Sunday lunch I can remember.

You could use the mobile app weq4u.

Fixmystreet.com already has an associated app, how would this be any different?

Vanity Fairs investigation into who owns One Hyde Park makes similar points. http://www.vanityfair.com/society/2013/04/mysterious-residents-one-hyde-park-london

Ah, true enough Townleygreen, might have known not even glaciers would come south of the river.

Isn't the most likely answer glacial erosion during the last ice age, when the thames changed to its current course. Geological maps of the borough show an outcrop of different rock.

Here's a video explaining how they plan to air condition the world cup. Anyone convinced or is Greg Dyke right?

"The splintering of the rebels is horribly akin to the fractures in the loyalist coalitions in the Spanish Civil War, instead of concentrating on victory they're already fighting over the spoils of a victory that is becoming more and more illusory the more they fight for it's end-state." A better example of the freerider problem in action than any on H's thread.

Cutting edge technology in the 1970s that I was over the moon about getting as a present. It must have kept me amused for ooh minutes. Todays technology which I would also quite like to play with. If we can now make toys that learn, will we one day end up with toys that get bored of kids by boxing day and decamp to the house down the road with a bigger garden and more imaginative kids.
