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.

    • Miss Robson is the last of the old school independent vets. All the chains are have seriously hiked their prices over the last few years which now makes pet ownership only possible for the wealthy few. Even with pet insurance -( which often excludes items or has ‘deductibles’ ) it is just so much money. A visit with some medication is often £150 - £200. The vets themselves are excellent. 
    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
