Ladymuck I don't think you understand the irony of your own posts. Do you realise that for Utd fans calling the team

Man U is insulting and offensive? Goes back years to Munich songs and as a term of abuse by away fans. Should always be just Utd. A bit like Forest fans hate being called Notts Forest.

Narnia, believe me most Utd fans hate it. You won't hear it used in the pubs before a game or at the ground, no Man U merchandise, no Man U songs.


Next time you are up there say Man U as much as possible in the pub and at the ground, guarantee there will be a few sneers. Don't worry it's not a hanging offence but I don't know anyone in Manchester who uses term Man U.

That's very true Murphy, we call them ManUre, Rags or simply the Scum, however most that I know would NEVER call them M****hs and any songs or actions to do with that tragedy is heavily frowned upon by the majority

On my last trip to Millwall the sheer number of shaven heads, tatoos, tracksuits and jewellery in such a small area was dazzling, I couldn't quite decide if I had stepped into a Jeremy Kyle rally or a Danny Dyer film set. It was interesting to note, as the 'Walls young men screamed constant abuse, how their girlfriends stood next to them smiling and admiring their manliness, it was rather touching.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
