Not that I am superstitious or anything (caresses lucky rabbit foot as he types) but Friday 13th is going well for me so far


Got woken at 4am by a recovery truck picking up a crash damaged Addison and Lee taxi (why do these recovery trucks make so much noise running their engines in the middle of the night?)


Made myself a cup of tea this morning only to discover my favourite mug has cracked and more tea is outside me than in me


I am now scared of eating those delicious English strawberries I bought yesterday In case I find a new friend inside one.


How is everyone else's luck today ?

That's not related to the date, that's the lords of ED punishing you for shopping outside of lordship lane 😳

Ha ha TheArtfulDogger. You know, sometimes, the best thing you can do in this life is go shopping where your heart tells you is best to go. I miss Iceland, there I've said it. I miss it a lot. I'm not being an inverse snob here telling everyone they can't buy organic kale from a caravan parked on goose green, no!!!!! I'm just saying, sometimes there's nothing wrong with wanting a ready meal from your local shop. But now all we have is the co-op. It's annoying I won't lie it's bloody making me furious even now.. But I don't care anymore. So, maybe Jesus is punishing me for going to asda in charlton rather than one of the fine estate agents along the lane, you know what who cares!!!! Ha. Happy Friday one and all.


Louisa.

And thus begins the next chapter in advertising for Iceland, Peter has been dropped in favour of


a actress is quoted as saying 'I can buy all this delicious frozen veg and pass it off as organic kale from bobbys van because by time it's defrosted no one will know the difference' followed by the voice over stating "that's why Louisa slums at Iceland"

    • A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/
    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
    • Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
