This has long been a favourite of mine

Quality satire is not dead


"In opting for commutation, Bush has attempted a Solomonic decision to split the baby," Morrissey wrote. "Unfortunately, like Solomon, Bush will probably find neither side satisfied." Although I agree with Morrissey that Bush is as wise as Solomon, I'm not sure he is interpreting the biblical story correctly. As I recall one of two women who claimed the baby was perfectly happy to settle for half a baby and it was only the real mother that objected. To tell you the truth I never understood why the other woman thought having half a baby was a pretty good deal, but I guess times were different back then. [snip]

...and the annual salary for this new job should be $250,000, which would take care of Libby's fine. With this bold move, the President would be killing two halves of the baby with one stone, something even Solomon couldn't manage.

This aint a joke !!!


The www.bonsaikitten.com site ( based in new york city and owned by a chinese man ) was put down by the US Government after a worldwide petition started in year 2000 ( I obviously subscribed ) because of its unbelievable cruelty towards animals, bonsaikitten exist and it is a hobby of some rich families in the far east and whoever admires/support such techniques should be jailed for life.

Thanks for giving me the link Mockney, will have to start another petition to ban them again.

CRIMINALS (td)

I can feel the thread already veering away from "here's a good site" to "this site lampoons the Bush government's disrespect towards vegans, which is offensive not just to vegans but bushy vegans in particular"


Here's another great site - for chilli-heads everywhere

I would have thought the main point is that whilst 'Bonsai Kitten' is not "a hobby of some rich families in the far East" nor is the site "based in New York and owned by a Chinese man", millions of people were still happy to believe it with no other evidence other than a spam email sent by a group of students - and sign a petition to that effect.


To me, this is the interesting / worrying thing.

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident.

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By civilservant · Posted

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
