1) The Germans. I've worked for a german company and with lots of germans. I like them a lot. They've a great and dry sense of humour, like a beer and have many similar traits as us brits only with better english. They get a bad press -I like them.


2) Pipe smokers - magnificent. The ritual, the aeshetic quality of the pipe - the smell of a decent shag...not a whif of your dog on a string Old Holborn. Sitting there using deduction to solve crimes/creating the NHS?designing stuff......I can even forgive Tony Benn some of his idiocy with that pipe. Magnificent and rarely seen. An enobled and diminishing beast. Piper smokers I salute you.


3) Busty barmaids of a certain age who call you 'darlin' at old school pubs...most of us blokes are just a sucker for this.

Actually Keef, I know this is off-topic...but you seem to do this the most...so I have to ask...


What exactly do you mean when you say that: "Word!"...(I honestly don't know :-S)...I used to think it was used to tell someone off, but clearly you are not doing that here...


Thanks.

      Latest One Dulwich update

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      I believe around 57% of the 5,538 people who were part of the self selecting sample making up the original consultation, opposed the LTN. So just over 3,000 people. This was around 3 years ago now. I think there’s something like 40,000+ living across se22 and SE21 🤷‍♂️  The LTN is a minority interest at best. Whilst it’s an obsession for a small number on the transport thread who strongly oppose it, I suspect most locals quietly approve of the improvements made to that junction. …and we still haven’t heard who has supposedly been pressurising the emergency services and how (are we seriously going with the far left / the commies)? Is anyone willing to stand up and support the 'One' claim that people are partially covering their plates and driving through the filters due to inadequate signage? Again, it all sounds a little ridiculous / desperate. Feels like it may be time for them to start coming to terms with the changes.

      Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?

      You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing.

      Check the link I provided above. It gives a very full account of where the push for LTNs came from, (in brief, central government). The consultation did not show that the majority of local residents were against the LTN. Not for the first time, you’ve confused a ‘consultation’ with a ‘referendum’. The outcome of local elections (which many opposed to LTNs excitedly promoted as a referendum on the scheme at the time…until they lost), suggests they are actually quite popular. All the polling on LTNs generally, also shows strong majority support across London.
