I'm so close to the end of my task, your jibes can't hurt me now karter. I'm basking in the moral superiority of sobriety.

Have to go out with a friend tonight in gypsy hill and he's the sort who is more interested in food than drink so we have to go for a curry...:(


I prefer to keep my stomach empty to squeeze in as much beer as possible. I'll have a popadom and a table full of Cobra.

Will your period of abstinence run alongside a self-imposed forum exile for the same time frame (on the basis that the forum is at its best/bearable and funniest/less irritating with a stiff livener on the inside)? Or will the forum become your substitute for a post-rush hour whisky and splash?

After this weekend the idea of No-drink-vember is starting to appeal...


I think it might usefully be twinned with a self-imposed temporary forum exile - none of this disappearing and popping up again like Huge and Quids though, the suspense is too much - just a calmly stated intent to forego posting for a fixed period... to see which part of you cracks first.

No-drink-vember starts tomorrow (oh, 73 btw) and I think I may take a stab at it.


Anyone else? Anyone for temporary exile? An edf sabbatical without the comfort of a hot toddy?


We could have a contest - like a tontine but whoever cracks before November 30th loses (loses/wins... nothing but pride in the knowledge one has mastered (a couple of-) one's appetites.


Did I say 73?


ETA: well you might consider it KT616 if only to give Mick Mack's short-term-memory-loss syndrome time to kick in...

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
