Yeah, then we could lock him in the cellar and get him hooked on Heroin(finer temptress) like Gene Hackmans character in French Connection II, then we could get Kathy Bates to Hobble him, then..then..then we could get Hannibal Lecter to eat his liver with some fava beans and a little Chianti(although what with him being a dour presbyterian Scot, maybe Irn-Bru would suffice)...oh,what would you 'say' to him...f**k off Jock or something.

Or I think I'd ask him to hold the line and then go off and find my 'Mr T' talking keyring and play various of the good man's phrases down the 'phone to him. It's good inasmuch as whenn the button is hit repeatedly it has the same effect as 'scratching' a record. 'IIIII piiiity ttttttthhheeee foooool' and so on.

Nothing to do with politics, or whether I think he might be a good PM but just the way I treat cold callers.

I'd ask him why he wanted it so much, if he's now so hell-bent on throwing it away.


I'd also ask him why when the country spoke pretty much en masse in 1997 and said yes, we'd like change please, we want a properly equipped NHS and better schools and we're prepared to pay for them, they didn't manage to deliver. Big ask I know, but that's what governments are for.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
