I was stooging aimlessly about the manor recently when up ahead of me I noticed a mother and child engaged in a spat. The child was staring mutinously at the pavement while the mother was fairly giving him chapter and verse on some transgression or other.


Unbidden the opening bars of Tom Petty's I Won't Back Down came into my head, I chuckled at the appropriateness of the internal soundtrack.

Imagine my astonishment as I drew alongside them and the boy slowly raised his head fixed his parent with a baleful gaze and said 'Mummy you can stand me up at the gates of Hell, but I won't go back down to school, forgotten reading book or not'.


Well I carried on sauntering but but with a renewed bout of chuckling ( the pair heard me and paused in their showdown, I like to think I brought about a truce but I didn't hang about to see) while marvelling at the coincidence of it all.


Later on I popped into a local and after several pints of premium lager and a brace or so of vera and phils I took to musing on the incident.


I judged I had been too hasty in my conclusion of crude coincidence and that surely this was more.


So much more.


I realised this was a power, a gift if you like, possibly a very low level super-power that I should use for good. My good.


This is where I am seeking the help of the good burghers of the EDF.


What I'd like you to do is to give me details of any incident that has occured in your presence, I will lay my hands on your post and tell you the song that was going through your head at the time.


It's an oppotunity to get in on the ground floor of what could be an exciting business opportunity in the world of hoodoo and superstition.

Just to be clear there is no payment for any contributions, think of it as being for the greater good.


Of me.


Anyway try and do your best as I'll probably be 'Denning' this at some point.

I was thinkin a 100K for 15% of the company.


The money would in part go towards some hand-tooled pillar-box red brogues, a couple of bespoke ostrich skin frock coats and a part-time henchman.


Oh and setting up training sessions for people who want to start up by themselves in the pyschic tune-divining business.


I'll mug up a bit on Scientology and roughly base the programme on that, I mean that old mutha Hubbard made an absolute mint on his diuretics so there's obviously a market for just this sort of lark.


I reckon that woman in the Den who resembles the late Lux Interior would be willing to pony up the scratch.

Don't ask me why, just a feeling.


So get on board with me on this one and I'll make sure Duncan B and Pasty-faced Pete get to hear all about the EDF


Thanks.

I dunno, it was a long time ago but i remember William was sounding like he was gonna top himself, Wendy was trying to flog moody M&S tights, Freddy had acne, as usual and all the geezer on the box could say was that were just hooligans, me, I just didn't care, I loved Mark Bolan et al.

Alan M sadly tou haven't been paying proper attention to the sounds in your noggin, the actually song I'm getting is Alone Again Or by Love.


It seems the 'fluence was weak and you mistook it for Alone Again Naturally by Gilbert O'Sullivan which you then misnamed as Nothing Rhymed.


It's nothing to worry about, we Mind-Song-Divinologists see this sort of thing all the time.


Jeremy well done, you get the early adopter discount - tell your friends.

Oh happy day! Welcome back HB, tho' this new enterprise of yours doesn't seem too far removed from your 'Evil Genius' tack of a while back. Anyways, I recall seeing this scrawny posh geezer somewhere between Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye, and that got me to thinking...

      Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍

      Car crashed into lamp post opposite coop , I hope no one was hurt ?

      By Sue · Posted

      I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses?

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      My point was in response to this:  "The idea that serving as a local councillor (including dealing with the public, internal party politics - which is always the most vicious where the stakes are lowest, and plenty of unpaid prep work) is a great pathway for careerists and moneygrabbers is utter shite. On a per hour basis you'd be far better off working at Sainsbos."   You could give up your job at sainsbury's and do a councillor's work and be very much better off. Most of these councillors earn this sort of money and still have full time jobs on the side.
