Jenny Eclair's house

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

This was in the SLP two week's ago. Is the Guardian so big it's allowed to plagiarise? Could at least have acknowledged source.

SLP lifts stories straight off this forum. They're all at it.

The point is Jenny Eclair should be down at the Green paying her respects not annexing Denmark Hill Village to East Dulwich.

Saw her last night in the shop near the Canning. She looks younger in real life and she seems really nice.

I'm sure a lot of people enjoy her TV work and the fact that she has sold so many books is testament to the fact that she is providing entertainment to lots of people.

OK she doesn't like North Camberwell. It's an aquired taste and its certainly not got many amenities that appeal to middle aged wealthy white women.

Also I now think that the lipstick is part of a perfectly justifiable media persona and that the house is lovely and that the see through blinds are stylish.

And surely what looks like a guffawing dinner party from the outside is a superb evening for all those involved.

What I'm trying to say is I have been unfair and I am sorry.

Aw, Alan. I'm welling up. Sorry certainly the hardest word to say..

[Alan Dale]

Thank you Tracy Chapman.

I still stand by what I said about you being a hypocrite though *Bob*- I haven't gone completely soft.

Hmmm.. well, since you're pressing me on the matter..

Putting aside the genuine bonhomie, goodwill and usefulness found within these pages for a moment...

I find the jealousies, grandstanding, insecurities, bravado and self-importance exhibited here and there (from time to time) hugely entertaining and (when deserved) I enjoy piquing those that exhibit them - by whatever means are most appropriate. I thought that would have been obvious, but perhaps I overestimated you. Disappointing.

It is always done with a wink though, even if I don't add a ;-)(so that morons can still get the gist of it)

Say what you like, but she makes exceeding good cakes
