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...

    • Many thanks to the woman who looked after our old deaf Miniature Schnauzer who got separated from us in the park this morning. And thank you to the man who alerted us . My husband is very relieved and grateful. If any one knows who these people are please say thank you as he didn't get their names. 
    • why do we think we have the right for the elected local council to be transparent?
    • Granted Shoreditch is still London, but given that the council & organisers main argument for the festival is that it is a local event, for local people (to use your metaphor), there's surprisingly little to back this up. As Blah Blah informatively points out, this is now just a commercial venture with no local connection. Our park is regarded by them as an asset that they've paid to use & abuse. There's never been any details provided of where the attendees are from, but it's still trotted out as a benefit to the local community.  There's never been any details provided of any increase in sales for local businesses, but it's still trotted out as a benefit to the local community.  There's promises of "opportunities" for local people & traders to work at the festival, but, again, no figures to back this up. And lastly, the fee for the whole thing goes 100% to running the Events dept, and the dozens of free events that no-one seems able to identify, and, yes, you guessed it - no details provided for by the council. So again, no tangible benefit for the residents of the area.
