great thread


I wanted to contribute a Pogues album cover with the pope and JFK, but I googled Rum, Sodomy and the Lash and it wasn't that so I thunk on and googled Red Roses For Me and it wasn't that either. I don't think I've made this up. My uncle was a parish priest in West Cork and he would drive me around the back roads and we would see the pope and JFK over people's fireplaces and I used to think about the Pogues. So can anyone source my memory?

Quote from latest Rankin you may enjoy:


"...It had taken him ages to buy his first CD player, and even now he preferred vinyl. Siobhan said it was because he was 'wilful'.

'Either that or I've just not got the herd mentality,' he'd argued back. These days, she had an MP3 player and bought stuff online. He would tease her by asking if he could take a look at the album cover or lyric sheet.

'Your're missing the big picture,' he'd told her. 'A good album should be more than the sum of its parts.'

Asset, you given up? I was poo at it too and then got it: Keef said -

Slosh is your uncle!;-)

That, MP, is quite astounding.


Btw albumen and women (that joke never gets old) rateyourmusic may often appear first in google images, but as soon as we deep link to them they pull the image and it looks suddenly like we can't do the image linking thing. So use the next image in future.

    • It's such an uneven provision, I live just west of E Dulwich towards Herne Hill/Dulwich Village and there are four Post Office counters within 10 mins walk max. They are all in local shops and provide a great service. 
    • Wanted to come on and do a review for DRJ Builders as I know how hard it is to find good quality and reliable builders in the area! David O'Brien and DRJ Builders are more than that - they are an absolutely brilliant building firm who we can highly recommend. We used them to do a side return extension, loft extension and full house renovation in 2016. They did such a great job, we have just used them again to add on a new rear extension to the ground floor in 2025. David is great to work with from start to finish and has a fantastic team of tradespeople who always deliver a very high standard of work. Would highly recommend them. You can get David on 07960 938621.
    • They do have other lockers where you can drop off parcels, as well as some shops who will take them. If you use the Royal Mail app, or website, you can also arrange for collection of parcels from your house. The service is actually pretty good (and a lot easier than going to the post office). There are a lack of Royal Mail lockers though. Would be good to get some more - perhaps one on North Cross road? They don't need to be outside the Post Office necessarilly.
    • In a similar  vein, are there any charity shops actually taking donations at the moment? ( after the usual post  Christmas chucking out phase, noone would take my things last week, they had too much already).
