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.

    • Its a few years ago now, but I organised my end of year prom (for year 13) at Off the Cuff in Herne Hill - was on the cheaper side to rent and at that age, felt very cool and clubby. I had my own 18th at Whirled Cinema in Loughborough Junction but I'm not sure if they take event bookings like that anymore 
    • You are right . It isn't going to change him for the better. Sending such a negative message is potentially counter-productive. Trump is narcissistic, arrogant, unpredictable, spiteful, divisive, and dishonest, with a penchant for a total a disregard for democratic norms.  He is one who bears a grudge so there's a case to be made for not offending him as he could react with a bunch of  adverse actions  such as  deciding to increase import tariffs on UK exports to the US.      
    • Unless we don't fly I don't think we can be too critical of the authorities.  
    • In 2016 London City Airport began using concentrated flight paths. When there's a predominantly westerly wind, incoming aircraft approach from East London (north of the River). When there's a predominantly Easterly wind, incoming aircraft approach the airport from the West: circling through Forest Hill, Dulwich, Vauxhall, Tower Hamlets, Docklands. This latter flight path affects many of us in South East London. https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/london-city-airport-concentrated-flight-paths The planes going into City are often below 2,000 ft, so very noisy. Sometimes we have incoming Heathrow at the same time, flying higher. The early flights that I hear e.g. 04:30 are incoming to Heathrow. They are scheduled to land at 05:30 but are 'early'. Apparently the government allows a percentage of flights to arrive early and late (but these are now established as regular occurrences, informally part of the schedule). IMHO Londoners are getting very poor political representation on this issue. Incredible that if you want to complain about aircraft noise, you're supposed to contact the airport concerned! Preposterous and designed solely in favour of aviation expansion.
