...is my new memory Mirrorfoam mattress! Seriously brilliant - I now look forward to going to sleep. You will never use a sprung mattress again. And at ?700 it is a bargain when you spend a third of your life asleep. And it changes your life.. So buy one. Now.


Anyway - what is teh best thing you have ever bought and why?

Bread machine from lilly on this very forum.

No, correction: my contact lenses. Changed my life.

No no, not those: it would have to be my motorbike. It is SO comfortable and I love it.

Orrr it could be the advert I paid for in Time Out all those years ago that found me MrRose!

If I say Marc Jacobs shoes I will sound shallow and vain? A very good set of german steel - chopping onions brings me more pleasure than is possibly normal.


Ultimately probably my freedom from a hideous, hideous job and stress-related alopecia - paying for it now in the freelance drought

My remote controlled helicopter.

Brick of Hashish along with an AK47 when I was working in Pakistan 2 years ago, loads of fun but I had to sell it before coming back which was a shame.

Tempur mattress of the TV which is apparently used by NASA, well the missus bought it.

Yamaha R1 1000cc motorbike although I'm still paying that off.

University education.


I want to get my private pilots license next year.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
