Well of course, one's flattered and everything, but of course one doesn't seek this sort of attention.

Not that one's not pleased by LuLu being in love with one, so sudden and so welcome.

Most of all one is just so grateful not to be sharing a prison cell with TLS and Mick Mac.

One likes living in a world where hearing one's farts is not considered a luxury.

Why bless you Giggi, you reference an Ian Hunter song. You'll always be special.


HUGS.

HB you're very naughty. OK now I'm going to be naughty too and get all name-droppey. This will impress the pants of you.


A few years ago I went to a David Bowie gig at the Hammersmith Apollo (I think our own Mr McGhabban may have been lurking somewhere around and about at the same gig). Anyway, I sat next to Ian Hunter's daughter, Tracy. Her boyfriend's friend later provided me with a bootleg of the gig, which I still listen to and which has given me much pleasure. Could my connection with Ian Hunter possibly be more tenuous?


How impressed are you HB? On a scale of 1 to 10?

Which Singer of a Group at The Oval Rooms(R.I.P) Kennington was passed a chair onstage in around 1971 when I attended in the tightest conditions I've known and shouted out "Don't need it! I'm not a f****ng cripple!"....you won't need to "phone a friend" to name this "Young Dude"...

That would of course be a ten Giggi. With a bullet.

Could you be more perfect.

Now that's impressive KK. Meeting members of Mott The Hoople's old support group. Well done.

    • It certainly was😁 Bob S
    • Niko was recommended to me through a group chat for my road, where everybody raves about him. I soon realised why as he did an amazing job installing an outdoor tap for me. I needed it done quickly but had a hectic schedule, and Niko did everything possible to accommodate this, bringing the parts and working late on a Friday, having worked out the best solution for my maze of pipes. The tap looks great and works amazingly with good pressure. He made minimal mess and cleaned everything up, and charged me a very competitive price. On top of that he is delightful to chat to and willing to give advice on other matters. He’s a lovely man and will be my go-to for any issues in the future! Recommend to anybody in the Dulwich/ Peckham/Camberwell area!! 
    • We've used Aria a couple of times - this time a tap that was causing water hammer elsewhere in the house, he replaced it and checked all was well. He was prompt, quick in his work, and charged what he said he would. Will use him again.  
    • Hi I found a phone on the pavement near the bus stop half way up lordship lane opposite M&S and have handed into one of the estate agents there (KFH). Please call in there if you have lost it.
