In an era when everyone is quick to condemn organizations who should have known about savile, doesn't anyone find the mails ongoing fascination with underage girls creepy?





And hypocritical?

Still, all girls grow up in the end right?

In years to come people will ask why this was tolerated

I said that I would not post any cheap comment, but suggesting that the Mail (or Mail on line) is aimed at those under 45 amused me. You can't get in to my local newsagents for Grauniad's on a Saturday. I recently popped into a Sainsburys near to Woking and found about ten times more Mails than any other daily on sale. So for the first time in my life I bought (the only copy on display) of the Morning Star. I confused the sales staff by asking them to order more in future.

Well I for one can't wait to read my proper paper version at the end of a long day. Never read the on-line version though but things lead from there I suppose with twitter, facebook, etc. Don't do any of those so I'm stuck with my proper hard copy.


Been reading it for 12 years now and you can't fault the 10 page health news every Wednesday, Amanda Platell column, Richard Littlejohn, Janet Street-Porter, the Questions and Answers page, coverage of sports. I could go on but don't want to upset people.

teenage girls are sexy innit

Apparently the plural is sudokus, but that actually doesn't make an sense at all.


Sudoku means 'numbers one by one' so it seems illogical to try and create a plural of a phrase that describes an activity. It doesn't matter how many puzzles you've got, you're still putting numbers in one by one.


As a Japanese word, they quite sensibly don't have plurals anyway. So if one airily decided that so far as one is concerned sudoku is a noun, you'd still end up with one sudoku, two sudoku, three sudoku...

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
