I do love looking on there for the weird and wonderful.


There really are 7 (this is all over 18 by the way as i think it comes from the electoral roll) Chardonnays in the country, and 2 incorrectly spelt Chardonays too!


In my new job I work with a Sorrel, which incidentally I think is a lovely name, which got me thinking about other herbs and spices.


I see we have a Saffron on here, 600 odd of you.

The are:

2 Thymes

1 Dandelion

6 Chards

24 Peppers

3 Mints

4 Tarragons

20 Verbenas

4 Chiles, 4 Chillis and 2 Chilis

78000 Rosemarys

and no Aniseeds in this country.


Look, i just do this sort of thing, I can't help it okay?

My partner and I are planning to call our daughter Harper (due May 23). We both really love the name. Heard a story recently of someone giving their son the middle name of Danger. Purely so when they grow up they can say: "Danger is my middle name". Hilarious. I want to give my daughter the middle name of X. Just X. Harper X I think is great. I think she may grow up with superpowers with a name like Harper X. Don't think my other half will let me get away with it though.

But yes, Harper is a good name.

My girl name was Mabel but my husband wanted Annabel, which I thought was a bit too precious. So we found Amabel in the Book of Baby Names from Yore (or something like that) which suited us both.


No girl came though, which is probably a good thing because five years later I still for the life of me can't pronounce it.


Fuschia is it pronounced Rory? I really like it.

I and my friends tend towards more traditional names so there are some Marys, Elizabeths, Sophias, Catherines etc.

As a variation on Margaret, I like Marguerite which strikes me as much more feminine somehow.


Am I the only one shocked by the parents immaturity in giving the middle name Danger? It struck me as quite pathetic.

I'm loving your names.


My husband wanted to name our son Aethelred. If you guessed that it didn't happen you would be right.

      Fireworks

      By Sue · Posted

      Most people with pets would not bring either the pets or fireworks into their day to day conversations. Are you suggesting that only "timid" pets are scared by fireworks? What evidence do you have for that, exactly?  Or are you equating being scared of fireworks with being "timid"? Firework noise is not a noise that "comes with normal city living" ! What a very strange thing to say!

      Well, I know a lot of people in London with pets and I've never heard any of them complain about fireworks.  Maybe what's not ok is keeping timid animals in a metropolis when they are scared of the noises that come with normal city living.

      Dawson heights parking charge notice

      By Happyme5 · Posted

      We git a ticket when we tried to park there to watch the fireworks.  Anyways we didn't even get a space and so we didn't actually park.  But we got a penalty notice.  We just paid up.  And we won't be taking our car their ever again.  You probably needed a Southwark council visitors permit.  I imagine it would have needed to be booked online B4 or by the end of the day that you parked. Beat thing to do is contact Southwark Council Estate parking to clarify the situation.   I hope your freebie was worth the value of your penalty.

      I don't think it works like that. It's not like the fireworks are on a regular daily  schedule. And in any case, why should animals be badly frightened on several occasions in order that they "become accustomed" to them? Do you really think that's ok?
