LOOKING GOOD! F*CK YEAH! more people should try it.


I wore my Phoenix bomber jacket to the gym on Saturday in honour of this thread. Tomorrow, I'm taking three hipster Swede clients out for dinner - might wear my Olivia Newton John t-shirt and a vintage kimono.

"Nowadays someone who sticks old agricultural implements on the wall of a Los Angeles motel regards himself as on a par with Michelangelo; moreover, since all their friends are dickheads, too, no one is about to disabuse them. Hell, on Planet Dickhead just turning up the trip-hop can be a work of unalloyed genius"

Trust you to give them ideas.


From DRD:


"We're shocked and saddened by the response to Death Row Dinners and are genuinely very sorry for any offence caused. The pop up is intended to explore the concept of last meals; anyone who has ever been to a dinner party has probably had this conversation ? what would they love their last meal to be.


In light of the response to the idea we are considering our next steps and will update everyone with our decision."

Even without having been there and seen this person, I am finding myself hating them with far too much passion.

naaa, even when i was young and travelling i found your full moon party type hippy utterly insufferable.


And to be honest anyone who has the guts to make a business, even one as wanky as the last supper, complete with prices quoted in pieces of silver and ersatz roman shoe leather scents wafting around, gets respect from me.


It's the ones railing about injustice, and bartering the life out of their fake hessian coffee sack to furnish their overpriced flat off brick lane that mumsie is paying for....in their 30s!!!! that get my back up.

Oh whatever. Dancing with a cunting hula hoop on the train platform? I'd have wanted to stab him at the height of my social life.

Just for the record, it was a she. Replete with ethnic skirt and fake bindi decoration. And Beatz headphones. That finished the job off for me.


You know, I actually don't mind that scene that much. I've enjoyed the fact that Peckham now has some interesting bars and ironic country music nights. I love red wing boots, raw denim and plaid shirts.


But a ?$%&$% hula-hoop?!

      Thames Water meter rip off?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I'm pleased to have gone onto a meter as it has saved us money.  When first fitted we found there was a leak and TW replaced the old lead pipe with plastic (we had to pay the last few metres into the house but some geezer did this at a fair price). No doubt others have positive experiences too.   Otherwise I'm no fan of the private utilities but that shouldn't colour our opinions.

      Thames Water meter rip off?

      By vladi · Posted

      I recall that when the meter was installed it it was not set at zero. Presumably it had come from elsewhere or was a recon one.    Same here. I phoned TW today to ask if there was a meter at our property (even though I knew there was) and I was told quite categorically that there was not and that our bill was calculated on RV value When I asked why we used to get our meter readings shown online in our account, It they could not provide an explanation. Our RV value according to TW is 547 which equated to a 4-5 bedroom property with a large garden. With just two of us living here then our consumption must be well below the expected volume. Given the facts, I am totally convinced no that TW have an algorithm that hides the actual meter readings when the actual consumption is below the RV based consumption suggesting they are a bunch of shameless rogues!!

      Be careful on the pavements...

      Let me get this straight . The OP  was hit from behind by a small person out of control on a bike whose father was not only not watching him but could not watch him, because he was not in a position to see him. Are you disputing that "side of the story"? Why would someone who rarely posts on here come on here to post that? Then the OP remonstrated with the father. What would you have done in that situation?  You seem absolutely determined to put the OP in the wrong.  What exactly is your motive in doing that? Do you always assume that someone is lying when you haven't heard "both sides of the story"? Do you always disbelieve anything you are told because there are so "many possibilities"? The father in question is hardly likely to come on here to defend his lack of care of his child, is he?  And btw there were no "casual onlookers". The people who laughed were apparently the child's father and those with him. Who did not witness  "someone being smacked into by a 4 year old on a bike" because the child was out of their line of sight. It seems that you can't even get right something which is posted on a forum and there in writing for all to see. Let's hope you are never called as a witness in a court case.
