All week I flit between Radio 4 & BBC London


But Saturday is my guilty pleasure day


LBC 97.3 FM


Ken Livingstone & David Mellor 10-1pm



Quite brilliant, I love and loathe them in equal measure.


It's great fun, I hate myself !

I feel compelled to ask whether people genuinely feel guilty about taking pleasure in biscuits, or drugs, or sex. Because unless it's sex with children / animals / your best friend's wife (I'm looking at you, Gary Moore); cocaine (ethically unconscionable); biscuits made by little people in sweat shops, where's the harm?


Throw off the shackles: pleasure makes you happy.


Unless you're catholic.


In which case, you're fucked ed.

Heard some woman talking about guilty pleasures on the radio recently. She was basically saying that people call things guilty pleasure when they basically don't think the people they'd want to impress would think it was cool enough.


I think she was spot on when it comes to stuff like music or films.


With things like drugs or booze, it's more the fact you know it's not good for you (as with biscuits to a lesser extent), so it feels a bit naughty. I can't imagine actually feeling guilty about doing any of these things though.

That'll be it Rosie

(but loving it)

Every now and then i will put on a pair of tights on instead of stockings, it almost disgusts me that they are so comfortable, snug and 'safe' feeling. I am however conscious all day of how grim they actually are. I would be mortified if anyone knew i was wearing tights, im sure no one would give it a second thought but its on my mind constantly. I every time i take them off i vow never to wear them again..............

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
