An exact one.


I've checked all the various horoscopes, open to me, Chinese, Russell Grant, Mayan, Ancient Egyptian Peripatetic Ted; Numerology, et al. I'm left with two unenviable conclusions and a request. My conclusions are that either: I am a home loving; 'rabbit warrior', with a penchant for knitting yoghurt and my upper aspect firmly lodged in Uranus and war - or that future watching is not my bag.


So my request, and I need some help and restoration, spiritually (and secularly) speaking; is this - does anyone have a clue what date/stardate/meaningful date - that we're currently at? Yes 2010, human civilisation - circa 7/8,000 years? So what is the year we're actually in?


I need to know the real date... by human civilisation standards, not Roman, Julian, or Christian's or Muslims' or anyone else with a ready made philospophy and a cheap digital watch, with iffy calender, to flog. Thanks and if the real date happens to be a mutual number - you'll make my whole week (sic).

Numbers can't possibly exist. If they did they would have an end somewhere that we could easily pin down not this wishy-washy infinity business. It is just proof that they are a fantastical nonsense cooked up by sun maddened shepherds.


So you won?t get anywhere trying to measure time with stupid things.


Wot you wants to be doing with time is getting a bearing on it by how it feels against your loins as it goes by. And keep the past close so it doesn?t go changing on you as it is so often want to do.


Hope this helps.

awww Sullied the forum is only messing with you and being declared mad is no great insult (it really cant be on a forum where 2 poster assume canine personalities) I am just disappointed as it wasnt a "date" (go out get twiddled and fiddle date) advert: I like those.

Please, worry not. I'm the least likely to take or understand criticism in anything but a constructive way, well as much as anyone with a Lithium dependancy.


As for the date thing, well I'm happily with, but for a taste of the high life, singleton's alert here - try the Peckham Liberal Club, a marvellous place with a pleasing clientelle of freely available men and women to suit all purses and tastes, most come with a manual explaining how to fix 'em up. And failing that cheap drink to madden.

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
