You know this actually really irritates me. Every morning and evening I stand aside for the ladies to get on the bus and train first. Mostly though I end up standing aside for all the besuited fucksticks who push on without a care in the world for anything but themselves.


Though these days that probably counts as sexist behaviour and as soon as the thought police read this they?ll be ?round my house with one of them asbos to strap around my ankle.

I hate to add to the new fangled pottymouthity going on here, but Brendan's "fucksticks", at the time referring to the spiky-haired variety found in the frontbottom fishbowl (to paraphrase) that is Foxtons, was far and away my favourite neoligism of 2007.

I reiterate my bravo to you sir.

Bravo.

Ah but does he, MP? Does he?

It seems to me that these young fellows today conduct their ablutions with bottles of vivid colour unguents, smelling of lavender geranium or pansy.

They also contain essential oils, whatever they might be when they're at home, but not 3-In-1 I'll be bound.

Give the youth of today a bar of soap and they'd likely as not eat it.

I don't know.


I really don't.

"Give the youth of today a bar of soap and they'd likely as not eat it"


More likely snort it or inject it. Bloody tear-aways.


Is it time for my nap yet?


Oh lawks there is an RAF flypast on the telly soon, must stay awake for that. The only thing that is worth watching nowadays, that and the Antiques Roadshow, even that has gone down the hill since Hugh Skully left.

Have you seen who's taking over the next series? Fiona Bruce. Yes you heard right Fiona Bruce.

That's 44 year old Fiona Bruce. Ruddy female's barely out of a gymslip and they've got her presenting a show about antiques.

It'll be full of Pyrex, Tupperware and Barbie dolls you mark my words.


We're going to hell in a handcart.

    • The Cornish Gouda was featured in an early episode of 'Rick Stein's Cornwall'. It's actually made by a Dutch family who moved here. The series is being repeated on BBC2 at the moment, so it's probably available on the iPlayer. Cheese Block stock a great 'Old Amsterdam' aged Gouda, if you can bring yourself to go in, or M&S do one made with Jersey milk. I've never found the Cheese Block all that grumpy. I think they just get a bit frustrated when it's busy and people don't know what they want. It's not ideal, but I try to go in when it's quiet if I'm undecided, and they're almost friendly. Here's a link to the Rick Stein show. It'll be available soon, apparently. Hopefully it'll help you track down the Gouda.   https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000qzxr  
    • It’s Mons all the way for us. Super friendly. And they know their customers . They even asked me why I bought so much Comté. LOL. This is the cheese from my area in France  and I eat it without thinking. I LOVE their Fourme  d’Ambert, one of the oldest cheeses in France. Much creamier than Roquefort and much cheaper too. Also love their selection of goats cheese - and the fact that they regularly discount cheeses that have ripened a bit too much, which is how I like my cheese. Been lobbying them to make Fromage Fort, which is a hit like potted cheese. You take old leftover cheeses and ferment them in white wine. If other Burgundians are in the area, please join the lobbying effort.  Heritage cheese used to sell an absolutely amazing Gouda from Cornwall and I really enjoyed this but they’ve stopped selling it.  Can’t comment on Cheese Block - so grumpy in there I’ve stopped going in. Perhaps I’m missing out.       
    • Yes, but I remember it fromages ago.
    • Can anyone please provide Niko's number?
