WI embarrassed by dressing as pirates for talk by former Somali pirate hostage. Truly brilliant.

I love how they take a 'if you want to join this band of insensitive nutters..." ad on the end of the piece.

More importantly did they buy them on the cheap? I mean, are they crushed and devalued peas?

Are they crushed by hand in their own kitchen? I

need to know.


Sue - they probably are :))


That's how I do mine, I crush 'em with butter+chilli flakes+mint (a bit Nandos of me but there you go) - delicious.


Mushy peas are a different beast entirely.

Look away now Sue if I were you


Crushed Potatoes to go with your Crushed Peas


Nursing homes have done this stuff for years, where did you say you were ?

I think it means that the last round of incomers (who moved here several years ago) now feel that they've been here long enough to trot out the same kind of stuff that they've forgotten people said about them back when they arrived.


The king is dead. Long live the king.

    • Certainly the infamous (and mythical) SE London cat killer turned out to be foxes attacking dying and dead cats injured by cars, but fox: cat encounters do appear to happen, even where cats are victorious. Fox: adult humans less so. At least where foxes are the aggressors.
    • That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?
    • This is a bit outside our area, but I'm posting in case .... Last night (Sat.20 Dec), around 10.30, we saw a cat hit by a car in St Norbert Road, SE4.  We took him to the out of hours vet in Beckenham, where they confirmed that he had died.  They will see if he is microchipped, and contact the owner if so.  They were very kind.   He was a lovely cat, grey and white.  He must have died very quickly.  So sorry to be the bearer of bad news 😞 The vet is Medivet in Beckenham, tel: 0208 650 2003.
    • Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.
