This made me laugh. Banksy selling originals on a stall in NY. Very few people bought anything but I wonder if those who did buy know what bargains they snapped up.

wow, and I thought people on here had chips on their shoulders. Just wow!!!

Funny though. I got weird looks in the office when I laughed at the interviewer saying "it's called Squirrels in June"


Absolutely spot on about pop music and radio though. One of my pet rants I was having in my head this morning when Sometimes came on shuffle. WHo's doing this these days I thought, not f******g Lady Gaga with her craaayAaaazy costumes and banal, derivative, insipid r'n'b based pop that's been the chart's mainstay for over a decade without one iota of progression (except ever craaaaAyaazier costumes and more in your face sex.


I think I found myself agreeing with Sinhaighd O'Conner for the first time in my life, that's how bad things have got.

"?Tried to send you a question on Twitter but it ended up on Facebook instead. Still, by your standards that?s close enough.?"

    • Just astonishing - how do they do it? Well done for being so on the ball. 
    • Shocking - so fast. Machines can have a false device for inserting your card into and then they retain it. Your bank should return your money 
    • FYI East Dulwich neighbours: I was in the middle of a cash withdrawl at the cashpoint at the Tesco Express on ED road (the one next to the Esso petrol station) when a man appeared beside me waving his hands over the screen and saying not to use it because it had just taken his card. He then dissapeared and I cancelled the withdrawl. No card was returned. It took me literally 30 seconds (max) to realise something wasn't right and 'freeze' the card on my mobile/banking app. I immediately got a txt message from my bank saying a transaction had just been declined, and then another. I logged in to app and £251 had already been taken. This all happened increadibly quickly - the whole incident from first encounter to money being taken and me freezing card was probably around 3 minutes. The guy must have somehow seen me put my PIN number in. It's possible there was some kind of card skmming involved, but I don't know for sure. The man was around 5ft 6/7, black and wearing a covid-type face mask. I don't remember what clothes he was wearing. I got the feeling (mainly from his voice and eyes) that he wasn't young - maybe mid-30s to mid-40s (but I can't be sure). Obviously I repoted to police. 
    • It would be incredible if the community supported small businesses rather than a chain (Gail's being a very large chain).   Sadly, consumers don't realise their power - as you can see also by the number of coffee cups etc that are still being bought and contribute to landfill - it' not hard to be responsible, just inconvenient.
