If I had to choose two, I?d go for fat and middle class. You can get over being fat, and who cares about being middle class 😃

Perhaps you ought to post on Urban 75, they'd like you there.

I think we should be mindful not to be too harsh on TS. He may have melted somewhere, cringing or mock dry heaving even, which seems prevalent amongst a certain group of people.


Or maybe just binging on more Jay Rayner reviews, or even cooking his restaurant at home kit, which is nice to do on a Saturday. Who knows, maybe he?s got Steven Taylor round for a slap up meal.


Anything is possible.

More delectable prose from Jay today to satisfy my base middle-class instincts. While reading this I've found that I've managed to slip an entire roast chicken in the front of my trousers, without even realising it....

I suppose that's all one can expect from a typical EDF male lounge lizard. It's not within spitting distance of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voina#How_to_Snatch_a_Chicken.

We're pretty tight. I read his article each Sunday. And I always comment. One time he even replied.



[Okay, I think I've milked this joke enough. I'll stop now;)]

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
    • It's not really though, is it. It's practical.  At least we're allowed Christmas lights.
