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.

personal favourite:

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

    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.   
    • Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
    • The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local  food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
