of course... different skid every day, sometimes resembling a gaelic knot, sometimes a mystic hindi phrase and sometimes chinese characters for "always wear scks with crocs".

Can't do that Franki - am too busy working on a three-quarter length skinny-jean trouser that can sit halfway down the thigh and is part shell suit and part stone-washed denim (of course my long hair keeps getting in the way so I tied it back into a ponytail which I am not sure whether to tuck under my baseball cap or through the hole at the back) and now have to change the whole colour scheme so it matches my football shirt. But keep it under your bucket hat eh?

Do you mean this maxxi? Guardian journalist making his fashion statement.

A Fashion Editor doing a puff piece for M&S just because it was their 125th anniversary - the swine.


I believe your unproven scattergun approach to conspiracy theory and having looked at her other articles can charge that the Guardian is clearly also sponsored by Versace, Dior, McCartney, Lagerfeld, H&M, Moschino, Reiss, McQueen, Sarah Burton, Marc Jacobs and the colour Orange.


She even did a similar puff piece piece on a bag maker of all things - typical fashion editor.

forgot to say I also occasionally wear an elasticated, gaudily patterned snood or bandana and now that I have seen Ben Westwood's 'riding coats' I shall be doing my best to acquire one so I can wear it wear with my Akubra.

Resistance is futile, maxxi, as I will continue the m&s theme. As for the other sponsoring fashion companies they didn't appear on my radar when I first done my research on the Guardian four years ago. Oh yes, I now deem Versace, Dior, McCartney, Lagerfeld, H&M, Moschino, Reiss, McQueen, Sarah Burton, Marc Jacobs and the colour Orange unworthy! This remind me when American Apparel became Guardian's label of the year. Talk about kiss of death.

    • A quick update - my InPost parcels are being accepted sporadically at Barry's, but only one at a time and every few days, after many refusals - one was refused SEVEN times over about ten days - and several phone calls. As a comparison, I had a message from Yodel that a parcel that was going to Barry's is being delivered to another nearby store, which is interesting...
    • The "Community Benefits" are documented on P12-16 of the Consultation Document. Basically unsubstantiated estimates that it benefits local businesses, claims that it provides "opportunities" for local food traders, businesses & people (the term "opportunities" being meaningless - I have opportunities to win the lottery) without any details, facts or figures, and discounted tickets for local residents (which unsurprisingly seldom sell out). The only direct financial benefit to the Park is a £1000 "Biodiversity Fund" and an undisclosed amount for an "Environmental Impact Fee" - looking at how it was spent this year (flower beds in the playground & Sexby garden) I suspect it would be a similarly small figure. The actual site hire fee - claimed as "commercially sensitive" and therefore undisclosed - is spent on: • Funding the council’s free events programme and Cultural Celebrations Fund • Subsidised fees for community events in the borough • Off-setting the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of the free community events programme  Again, no details given, just vague concepts - can anyone name any of these free & subsidised community events? Or what the "Cultural Celebrations Fund" is or does? It doesn't really sound like any of it is worth  the disturbance, restrictions, noise, litter, environmental damage and negative impact on wildlife in our Park.  
    • The organisers must have spent a fortune on the display..imagine how p**s*d off they must have been!!!! Blink and you missed it kind of thing
    • We also recommend Aaron.  Very reliable, reasonably priced and did a fantastic job on our hallway and bedroom ceiling.  A pleasure to work with and left the house very tidy at the end of the job.  Thank you
