Malicious evil???? come now. apart from being delicious (seriously, I couldnae speak in his presence) the brains, integrity and moral fibre have surely got to count for something? (the oleaginous Blair would just slide right off)

Tricky job in this current climate, not sure hes the man but I dont know who else would be. Untill the current bad odour from usa is passed its tough, impossible even to fully concentrate on what we need in this country, I personally think. Brown? good luck to him but no chance really. Im sure he as a lot of ideas of what hed like to do. Who knows when the next call from washington will be for support. He cant say no can he? All sorts of financial pressure to kow tow. plus he lurves Thatcho and of course she was big on 'special relationship'. I couldnt stand the sight of Brown at first , had that look of someone trying to pull the wool over your eyes, waffle self confidently as if he knows what the answers are. However, when i found out that

he had facial surgery from an accident and a broken eye, I realised that really contributes to some of the expressions he pulls. Some of the ones that make you think "twot". That aint fair so, give him a chance I guess. Im aware that 'pulling out troops' is soon followed by ..sending some more out. thats the pressure.

She was determined to go to war no matter what, and attempts by the Americans to head it off by diplomacy were brushed aside. Still it won the next election for her...

Blair, Major, Thatcher, Heath even. They all enjoyed being PM. I just don't think his hearts in it. He looks very unsure of himself and comes across as completely unconvincing, to me. Just read Private Eye and his (GB's) brother is head of media relations at EDF (the French energy firm) who look like they are going to be building all these new Nuclear power stations no one wants. Have I missed something?

    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion.
