Can just imagine the tension in Quids' mind as he spends the evening trawling the various threads and, as he grinds away trying desperaately to compose a witty rejoinder, knowledgable quip or articulate point he notices that one thread has reached its 99th post and so, with a nifty bit of mousework, and nimble fingering, he types '100' and posts. cue self-congratulatory grin.

Quids, I haven't been able to give the matter the attention it deserves as yet. As you know there were all sorts of shenanigans going on about spelling today which took up some of my time.

And before anyone looks it up 'shenanigans' has no double 'n's, I've been up to them for some considerable time, so should know.

Added to that my employers had laid on some work for me today. Bastards.

But I know there's a difference, I can feel it in my water.

Aaah shucks Sean, thanks.

Hona, I think that my good intentions may have been somewhat misconstrued. I'd like to set the record straight; my offer of help to Giggirl and the other bandwagon chicks was genuine and heartfelt.


I regret that I can have been so misunderstood, and will try my hardest not to cause any confusion in the future.


Back to the number obsession.....

Oh Kells, forgive me my foolish misinterpretation of your intentions.

It's just that I've become so protective of the Bandwagon Chicks (particularlry the head of sorority that is Giggi) that I may have been somewhat defensive and not taken your assertion at the face value you intended.

Looking back at it, how could I have been so foolish.

Welcome good Kells and may I wish you many years of loving me and all that, this is a happy day indeed.

Made all the happier now that Sean M's joined in. Finally. Just joshing, SM.

I'm just off now to watch Question Time on BBC1 and the only thing that could possibly make me feel more joyous is if David Dimbleby drops the loaf on Piers Morgan.

Fingers crossed.

Giggi and TLS you're timing as always is immaculate.

It's some sort of sixth sense you both have about when a judicious post from you makes all the difference.

You've changed my internal soundtrack from Nick Lowe's Endless Sleep (#it makes you want to lay face down on the grass so brown, where the sun beats down on the baking ground, to find sweet relief, in endless sleep#) to the life-affirming potty-mouth of Uncle Fukka by Terrance And Phillip.

Indiscriminate kisses and hugs to you good, good people.

Oh no! I was trying to make a pertinent comment on another thread and inadvertently I've been and gone and brought this one back from page 6.

I'm utterly mortified by the whole thing. Please just ignore it.

And anyone who was previously in love with me and all that, you have my permission to withdraw your love.

It'll hurt but frankly I think I deserve it, it's almost as if I must be stopped. For my own bad.

It's a thankless task Al but I have to.

I feel duty bound, which in a way is like being egg-bound but you experience more crap.

Just to balance out the other thread. Frankly if no one else is prepared to love me, then I'll do the job myself.

Is Ying Yang the phrase I'm looking for?

It might be, seems as good as anything else.

As you were.

    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
