I flew from Stansted on the 21st and was only delayed back to Belfast by about an hour. My younger brother was delayed coming from Gatwick, via Leeds to Belfast by a couple nof hours last night. My uncle was returning from a cruise in the Red Sea and was delayed for about two days in the utter Hell that is Heathrow but he made it back to Belfast yesterday.

Yep, the Singapore Airlines website all looks very normal...gawd, does that mean that I should perhaps start thinking about packing soon?...


.....I'll make some dinner first, then I'll see...




EDKiwi, I'll wave at your relations once in Kiwi-Land.

Well thanks for the idea LM, but why would I want to do that? That man has been shying away from me since he lost a bet.

However, being big about it, I absolve him of any wrongdoing.He is from Antrim after all which must be a burden in itself.

shhh, it's a secret, we have left a few back home to keep the country ticking along while the rest spread out and slowly take over the world (with pies and BBQs), we have a pretty good hold in Aussie and are now working on the UK...but don't tell anyone.


Actually I meet some Polish people on a recent trip away and they said in Poland people say the second bigest city in Poland is London, 1.5 million Poles apparenty (well so they said), I think they have us beat on that one.

While you are on an away day Ed, we Irish have already got a foothold in NZ. Personally, excluding America where we are all over the place (and that's just my family) we have made inroads into France, Italy and Spain (apart from Scout in NZ). Scout has taken over your national broadcasting station and soon the plan will evolve. Don't expect to be aware of it though. Once he presses the button, you and your like will start walking towards the sea and never be heard of again.

There will be no WC win in 2011!

It seems you have made the classic James Bond villian mistake of telling me of your plans of world domination, giving me a chance to stop it Narnia. I'll be sending a coded warning message home shortly, but first I feel an irresistible urge to go for a stroll into the sea.

Anyone know whether LM made it? I've been enjoying the NZ sunshine for the last 4 weeks, very nice indeed down south. Mr Pickle flew out the day before the snow caused chaos, thank goodness. Not looking forward to my return to the UK in early January and the associated weather :'(


Hope you are all having a great festive season!

Hey thanks guys. Hardly any delay...


Spent a fabulous Christmas Day in Singapore and linking up with the forum's mighty Huguenot and his lovely other half - B. Thanks H and B for a (ahem...literally) smashing evening.


It certainly feels good to be out of that wretched snow. Temperature here currently 28 degrees.


Pickle: are you South (as in South Island)? We shall be leaving for the North Island in a few days - may venture South (as in south of the island) but will not be going to the South Island: too much hard work, and something to do next time LOL. Enjoy the rest of your stay and have a safe flight home. Don't forget to pack a bit of sun for the sun-deprived folk of ED.


Well, hope you all had a lovely time and that all of you who have been plagued by colds/flu/snot are feeling much better.


HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all.

      Peckham Rye Park Attack - August 22

      By se22cat · Posted

      This is horrible to hear about. We used to get daily Police patrols on foot & even regular patrols on horseback in the area. I know our local station had some bad eggs, but the officers I came across in the area back then were all a fantastic bunch. Sadly nowadays the Met's presence is non-existent, bar the weekly walk from the SNT. I hope something gets done, arrests made and the victim some genuine support and counselling.

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.
