It's nothing to do with where u hang I have seen people and there relationships and how people are treated yh some women are just as bad men but coming out of a relationship which I was knocked about in I'm sure u can see we're in coming from and I'm not say all men are like that because there are some good ones

I like being single and have been for two years now. I've gone solo for longer than that in the past and so it really doesn't bother me. I'm used to it. I'm comfortable in my own skin. I enjoy my solitude and my own company. I like my own space. I love the sense of irresponsibility it gives you. You get a great sense of freedom when you're unattached. You're free to do whatever you want with whoever and whenever you want and don't have to seek permission from your significant other to do so. You can be totally selfish and not feel guilty about it.

There have been many times when I've been in relationships and felt kind of trapped. I get to feeling claustrophobic and I want break out and be on my own again and I've had to end things. Sometimes I've regretted that and sometimes it's been a relief to get away.

I love women and really enjoy their company. I count myself very lucky to have so many of them as my mates. I just can't really see myself settling down with anyone in particular. It's never really happened for me in that respect. Maybe that's my tragedy... or maybe not.

Love is a revolutionary act. It attacks the ego and in its highest form, is transcendental. Jah is speaking his own truth but missing out on a fundamental aspect of what it means to be human. We are social animals. The closer the bonds, the more challenged we are in resisting the ego.

That's very profound. I wouldn't say I'm missing out though. Depends on how your wiring's programmed.

    • There's probably a bigger discussion on why we celebrate Christmas (pagan/religious festival) and why everything has to shut down.  I've enjoyed Xmas days in Spain, Mexico and France where some businesses and restaurants are open, and in a number of non-Christrian countries.  In both sets of occasions it has been festive, but not over the top and the Spanish seem to have a more relaxed attitude in a country where the church is probably more important than the UK.  A Lounge conversation.  I'll no doubt be popping into the Forest Hill Road supermarket on Xmas day for things we have forgotten, with many others in a similar situation who grew up in the Christian faith (I've long since been an atheist).   
    • Would anyone have ends of balls of wool, any colour, to mend an old blanket? Any colour? With thanks Mila
    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
