Oi! Regalia!


I'll have you know I AM a good lawyer, and the many people I've worked for for FREE including the ones who didn't GET HANGED as a result, might agree with me.

They did not. They were initially commuted to life in prison, and later released, after it was clear that they had not murdered the people in question, or indeed anyone, and after an incredibly brave testimony from a key missing witness who was so frightened of the police threats that he left the country before the initial trial.........all prisoners had been treated dreadfully throughout, including in prison, one left prison with an untreated fractured skull, another had to spend months in treatment after all of his schizophrenia medicated was deliberately withheld in prison, one had to be treated for various minor bone breaks.......


One of them wrote me a poem afterwards about never giving up hope, he was virtually illiterate but still the sentiment and feeling of what he'd dealt with came through. I wish I could have kept it but it remains on his file in the law firm I worked for at the time......


Anyhoo. Curry sounds nice.

Who is coming? Post here or send a PM so that I can book a table. I suggest meeting at the Forest Hill Tavern next door at about 7.15 and then eat at 8.00.


Meet at the Clock House pub at 7.00 for those that fancy walking up together?

Am not a member of your curry club - but be warned - take your own drink - last time we went Omrith informed us they no longer have an alcohol licence, but you can take your own. Or they suggested drinking alcohol before or after the meal elsewhere!
They must have softened their stance then. Co-owner sold his half share to his business partner, who said no alcohol could be purchased on premises,. We had a conversation about imposing their views on their customers, and they said the restaurants in Brick Lane do not serve alcohol.

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
