The first load got lost when my they were sent back to Jamaica. The guy they sent them with lost his luggage (bloody BWIA) and the second lot went astray when my Parents moved house. :'(

Mine was to do with aparently the chemical imbalance the presence of his particular(little swimmers) created in a certain part of my anatomy, although I have asked him whether or not he is a meths drinker since lol! The doctor said I'd just have to use condoms and reintroduce them at little stages every now and then to see if I can get used to him, don't see this one lasting long though! I accused him of having an STD the first time weird things started happening! and went to the local GMU clinic for a thorough check up! and no I am not elaborating! This was also caused by the severe lack of activity in that region as well! and then trying to make up for lost time! lol

I saw Bob Marley & Johnny Nash perform at my school (Peckham Manor School for boys) in 70 or 71 ( can't remember which) before anyone knew who he was. And I got Bob's autograph. Well pleased. I'm also a vinyl record dealer and collector (since 1970) in my spare time.

I used to love John Cravens' Newsround!! When I saw Bob, I remember being surprised by how small he was. I was only 14 or so at the time and he was the same height as me. The school was especially proud of the visit and it was duly reported in the South London Press. I'll have to check if the SLP archive goes back that far , because I'm sure they featured some photos taken in the playground of Johnny and Bob kicking a football around.

I have two uncles who were christened with the name Mary.


All infants born in the Rotunda Hospital in Dublin in the 1940's whose parents were undecided regarding their names, were entered into the birth register as "Mary" - male and female. My mammy says that "it was so The Blessed Virgin would protect them."

Brendan my majesty, (that doesnt sound right, what do you call an irish king? "feckin edjiit"?) you going to the forum night out so I can buy my king a pint? heheheh

sadly I have nothing remotely unique to add about myself.

I did once say in a new job and we were having an enforced circle thing where everyone had to stand up and introduce themselves and my thing that I was talented at was Ironing. heheh couldnt think of anything at the time because I found it all so banal. Everyone thought I was a right weirdo for a while after that.

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
