Plump and firm like a Thomas Hardy milkmaid. That's an oyster apparently.

Unless they are bigoted piss artists or uncouth Northerners or some other stereotypical demographic with intrinsic comedy value television chefs (like estate agents) should be banned from using simile and metaphor and only be given a limited dispensation to use some basic and necessary grammatical modifiers.


I don?t actually have a clue who you lot are on about but thought I would offer my tuppence worth.


This is about a television chef isn?t it?

Sorry in advance for the unimaginative fisking - yes I am with you, I like that concept too. I haven't read that one so thanks for the tip.

Thats absolutely spot on! I wonder if she even tastes the food. Nigella on the other hand, would be very up for that!

    • I completely agree.   Pride used to be in Brixton and Brockwell Park before it outgrew it and moved to Finsbury Park.  Quite reasonable to accept limitations and respond properly  
    • Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found. 
    • Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.      
    • Campfire on from about 7pm on Fridays - pop along and join me - I always have some Small Beer available.
