Mental note to self: spend every Easter weekend at home in London.

It's been total bliss. As every other Fucker fights on the M4 to Cornwall /Norfolk /Cotswolds / Chamonix, London has been empty.


20 minutes to west end on sat night in a cab. No queue at the bar. Tables free at almost any eatery you like. Lordship Lane empty. If it was like this all the time I might want to stay here forever.

Yes it is awful being here in Cornwall - the bloody views, the seemingly never ending banquets of freshly-caught fish, the cider, the bats in our neighbour's garden flitting round our heads in the dusk... and at ?40 for a 1st class advance tkt. the journey wasn't exactly a pain-in-the-comfortably-rested-arse either...

Naughty boy maxxi


You're still "here" in spirit


How's the *ahem* "y'know" going ?


(and where exactly are you in Crnwl)



Anyway I do agree with Mr Ben. We too love Easter in London, zipping here and there without a hitch


Ahhh joy

I thought I was seeing things this Easter weekend in London, the sight of two Scotsmen leisurely sipping some damn fine-looking cocktails on Lordship Lane of an afternoon B)



ED has been eerily quiet in a nice end-of-term careless kind of way. On the plus side, no traffic hell. Curry houses busy. Planes and foxes still noisy as ever. And yippee, its raining (tu)

    • For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.      
    • The drivers generally have the same set area to cover every day, so they're fairly easy to follow - quite often on bike. They organise their drops to maximise how many they can do within a given time - there's actually software at the depot to do this before they set off - so they tend to follow the same route. Certain addresses are delivery hotspots, some have two or three drops a day from the various couriers. It all adds up doorstep deliveries being incredibly easy to target. I suspect Vladi's neighbour hasn't had their fake parcel nicked, not because of their security, but because the thief simply wouldn't have seen the driver stop there, so there's nothing to steal. The losses are factored in, driving prices up for everyone, and the drivers are treated abysmally. It's a dreadful business. It needs regulating.   Sorry, cross post with Angelina and Alec1
    • Amazon seem to do this more and more now.  They don't even ring the doorbell, just leave them lying on the door step, then you find out it's been delivered when you check tracking.  The official Amazon vans are frequently followed on their routes by thieves and take the opportunities freely given.   
    • Our local delivery driver was followed and had his van stolen.
