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.

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
