Hell yeah!

It is the list titled 'potential collaboraters' though - not the one titled 'agitators' - so you are safe!

Considering the ones he didn't disassociate himself from, how was was the *Junglebook* tweet? First I've heard of it.


Interestingly, one of the White Supremacist groups was posting furiously on the group page on Monday night. At the time I just assumed they were making the most of an open thread with lots of passing people...

Do you jerk your knee?

Do you jump on bandwagons?

Do you mindlessly follow crowds without stopping for one moment to consider what you're doing?

Do you have overly simplistic answers to incredibly complex problems?


Then you need a Facebook petition.

As undeniably inflammatory as the account holder's comments were, I don't think you can justify all the scorn being poured on Cameron from the left-wing media. He has to make some decisions and allegiances that, with the benefit of hindsight, aren't as informed as he would've preferred, and will occasionally backfire on him. I suppose you could draw a reasonably sound parallel with Manchester Metropolitan, Teesside, Liverpool John Moores, Glamorgan and Queen Margaret (Edinburgh) universities entering into sponsorship agreements with the brutal and oppresive regime in Libya. The negative coverage has also backfired on them, too.

Or a riot.

I now visit my rather lame Facebook page about three times a year and it's going to die very soon. Strangely, I found I started actively disliking lots of people whom I actually like and respect in real life.


You can be too connected. It's days are numbered. And if you are an EDF hipster you really have no excuses. It's evil.

    • Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident. 
    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
