I think so. But that's no reason to be suspicious of her motives. It's not as if people can't see the error of previous ways and change direction in response to circumstance, justified criticism, conscience, deity or parents. Just look at Jeffrey Archer, Peter Mandelson or David Icke, all of whom have profitably recovered from earlier misunderstandings and are now back in their rightful positions as leaders of the free world, albeit modestly from behind the scenes.


There comes a time in every person's life when the realisation dawns that the romantic novel is indeed a work of fiction, that the glittering galaxy of future possibilities has imperceptibly coalesced into the jittery blur of an evening star and that the cheerful balloon of hope has gradually turned from a beribboned beacon of optimism into a limp and flaccid memory of what might have been. And that's the time that we choose to dress in beige and learn to love a cat.


It is good to see that Woodrot is taking something of a stand. Although tertiary education is little more than a futile kick against the dictates of fortune, especially for mature students who, if we're honest, have little chance in the internship market, what with the lack of working-age uncles and the fragrant attributes of their juvenile competitors, it is something to do, and that's of considerable value to the purposeless. But, ultimately, it will only stave off the inevitable for a short while, and as one enters one's jam-making years and start to takes an autumnal interest in watercolours, you need all the support you can get from friends or, in this case, randomly anonymous strangers who might, at least, pretend to take an interest.


So yes, I have no reason to believe this isn't a reformed Woodrot and deserving of, if not exactly sympathy, at least indulgence. It's not as if we've anything better to do.

    • If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.
    • Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
    • I made sure to set off a few today just to rile you guys up 😇😂 Always looking for something to criticise 
    • Ugly...maybe..does it bother me..NO! I think its somehow reassuring to see theres still phoneboxes around. East Dulwich may  be getrified but there may well be some elderly people who don't have mobiles and kids who may have lost theirs adults ditto etc etc. I'd rather keep it than lose it...just because i don't use it does'nt mean its not needed.  there are many eyesores in the modern world not all of them as potentially useful.
