X-Factor stirs the Forum massive! There are generalisations aplenty being thrown around here.


Comparisons between X-factor contestants and established recording artists, whilst understandable, are a little unwise. It is only a talent show after all. I mean I went and saw my little boy perform in a school play and thought he was wonderful. Bought a tear to my eye, quite rightly - but I'm not comparing him to any great actor. the reason Matt was so good singing "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" was because it was emotional within the dramatic narrative of the show. He'd had a wobbly performance the previous week so the audience at home and in the studio were primed for a great one from him. They got it. But it worked specifically in the melodrama of the evening.

and they're dressing up in it?

Mother issues I'm guessing.



As a complete incidental aside, the Mongols only wore light boiled leather armour if at all, preferring silk shirts as an arrow went into your body without breaking allowing you to pull it out without causing massive internal bleeding and lessening the risk of infection.


Aaaaanyway....moving swiftly on...... (like a Mongol horse archer....(keep digging piers........))

    • In case anyone is renovating or stripping out an old kitchen, I am looking for a base kitchen unit or carcass to house an oven for a temporary set up kitchen.   Also looking for a run of worktop at least 180 cm long if anyone is disposing of something like this, I would be happy to collect.   thanks   Mila
    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
