Given that a large portion of Jo Brand's comedy is her talking about how much she likes cake/food it's not necessarily wrong for people to pick up on that


Having said that, people do seem to take inordinate amount of joy in taking the mick out of her in an unnecissarily personal way. I left her comedy behind years ago but she seems like a good egg to me

And he was on the 17.48 to ED from London Bridge yesterday. I resisted the temptation to yell, "Why have you drugged their onions?" at him...

I think this is the same lady who was in that show about young lawyers. Think it was called This Life? Bizarrely the BBC use her to present online legal training modules - sitting behind a lawyer's desk! (assuming its the same woman we're talking about. Ignore me if we're not.)

I've lived in ED for 10 years and have seen the following bods in Sainsbury's and other assorted shops and pubs:

Jimmy Nesbitt

Paul McGann

Adrian Lester

Steve Sutherland (ex-NME editor)

Gary Stringer (singer from Reef)

Jo Brand

Helen Lederer

Dan Cruickshank (he was investigation ED architecture)

Shirley from EastEnders (always wearing shades - no matter the weather)

Jenny Eclair (my mate bought an old Merc from her)

Josie Lawrence

Olivia Colman

Vincent Regan (big Oirish fella - 300/Clash of the Titans/The Street)

Timothy and Rafe Spall

Joanna Scanlon (The Thick Of It/Getting On)

Lesley Sharpe

It's a veritable cleb spotter's dream!

Sat next to Clare Holman (the forensic scientist in the follow on from Morse - Lewis) at Greenwich Picture House yesterday, while watching Tinker Tailor etc - V. Excellent film BTW.


The sat opposite Ros Kemp at the Rivington Cafe at Greenwich Picture House.

    • I’ve been happily with them for donkeys years but my recent experience has been a bit shocking. Clinical staff have been great (if you can get an appointment) but apparently the Practice has a ‘new system’ in place. You can’t phone for an appointment, you have to go ‘on the app’ and request one. GP will review the request at some unspecified point and decide whether to offer you an appointment . My experience of using the app hasn’t been good and I’m a bit horrified that folk can no longer arrange appointments by phone or by walking in. I’ve also had them lose referral forms, and had to chase them multiple times over a simple GP letter. This has never been my experience in the past so it’s alarming. Anyway, I’ve asked to be included in the Patient Participation Panel, so I’m interested in the experience of others, good & bad? Feel free to PM me, if you prefer!
    • I miss milkmen. It was the sign of a good night out if you met one on the way home. But could quality produce, in 100% recyclable packaging and home-delivered by zero emission electric vehicles really catch on these days? They should bring back the Corona pop man, as well.  
    • Based on what I’ve seen, you can get yogurt in small glass jars from milkman now if you miss those.  Butter and bread is also available.  One of the dairies has fresh bread from a bakery in Brockley, but that bakery also do their own deliveries which I had been thinking of trying.
    • Of course you also had lot's of local diaries. My grandmother had a job as a milkmaid in Camberwell when she was young!
