You, obviously, have good taste macroban.


Annie resides in the heart of the Country in The USA now....

You have got to be joking. Seriously? You need your ears tested Sherwick. Get the wax out. Ranking Roger's pathetic rap at the end is just abysmal.

I tell you what i was listening to earlier. XFM, which informed me that, according to their listeners, the 1st 2nd and 3rd best ever British songs are all by Oasis.


Even accepting that the average XFMite is probably about five years you ger me and hence Oasis would be very much a fabric of their coming of age, surely their being in their thirties at all should give them enough maturity and experience, leaving aside perspective for a moment, to realise that that's utter utter munk.


Even I have been forced to admit that the Stone Roses and Star Wars aren't nearly as good as I thought they were. But Oasis, I mean?!?!?!


So what would be in the top ten?

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
