I suppose it's kind of you to profer the advice Ms B, and of corse myself and my companion are no strangers to the harsh realities of modern life. It's just that we'd probably rather not have the word 'vomit' intruding upon our illicit sojourn.

There's scandal enough without that.

We've both just checked our diaries, and realised we have booked intimacy for the Sunday morning.

So no wellies will be necessary.

Apart from the normal consumption of Brighton Rock of course.

Of course PGC, how could I forget the good people of Elizabeth Duke? Thanks.

As for the bishop encounter, how did you find out the name of my companion?

What makes you think I'd share her with a member of the clergy? Even one who'd risen to that sort of rank.

Even if she'd consent. Which she might. Or not.

I think I'll get in touch with the Irish Embassy now, just to be on the safe side.

Unfortunately PGC my efforts came to naught.

I went to the Soho area and was pleased to see guides of all descriptions on the street. I approached one and asked about brass collar studs, but there was a misunderstanding.

The chap told me that he could understand my wanting to be 'collared' and took me, with a certain amount of force it has to said, to a nearby apartment. There I was offered a choice between a gentleman who was apparently prepared to have sex with my wife or a lady who proposed congresss for money. I explained to the gentleman that I am a batchelor and to the lady that I did not have sufficient funds for her kind offer. Their agent appered nonplussed and bundled me to the street with no little ceremony. The lady in question gave me a postcard sized business card which I shall treasure.

Afterwards I strolled about and came to shop which promised a 'Guaranteed Stiffener', of course I was not in the market for collar bones, but I thought that if they were purveying those then brass studs could not be far behind.

How wrong I was. All I was offered was magazines with photographs of 'ladies' (I use the term as a convenience) who had no use for either underwear or dignity, disporting themselves in poses that would shock a Frenchman. I could barely contain my horror, and left with nothing more than half a dozen flyers and details of a website.

I think that perhaps, all things considered I should purchase shirts with attached collars.

Actually PGC I've just checked and apparently there's a 'shirtmaker' in Jermyn Street going by the name of Turnbull & Asser.

Given my recent experiences in the heart of London's busy West End I can only assume that their name is some sort of code, and that they cater for the more 'specialised' types of sexual pecadillo.

I shall be giving them a wide berth.

I have to agree Steve, I thought there was a sense of abandon in .

I reckon she's got hold of some Fiery Jack.

    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.  
    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties. Sorry to continue the off topic conversation when the poor OP was just trying to find out who was open for lunch on Christmas Day!
