And of course I'm happy enough being edgy and dapper is as dapper does, but the trilby got on my 'threepennies' after a while, not sufficient brim on it for my liking. Not in the long term. I now sport a homburg.

I knew you'd be bouffant, I felt it in my edginess.

Your suits trouble me, I'll affect an introduction to my tailor, jacket, weskit and two pair pants as standard.

Easy terms.

The last tailor I employed wrote rude things in the linings. I know this because my ex-wife found his obscene jottings when she took the kitchen scissors to the sleeves of my favourite suits. The content provided extra collateral in the ensuing divorce. It's one of two things Prince Charles and I have in common.


Since then it's been off-the-peg for me and custom-made only for Charlie, I believe.

That's why TM it's best not to employ any tradesman who read that NME interview with Jack White of The White Stripes, when he spoke of his time as an upholsterer. He told how he would write notes and messages onto the structure of the furniture he was refurbishing.

My initial thoughts on reading this were "cheeky bastard, how dare he leave unwanted messages, secretly, on the hidden framework of other people's furniture"?

I was all prepared to front him up about it. Not just him but his ex-wife/group member Meg.

In the next copy of NME I saw how Jack duffed up Jason from The Von Bondies. And J from the VBs was a mate.

I thought best leave it for now.

For now and ever since.

Whenever I first saw the name Snorky, I had an image in my head of Gilbert the Alien

Please note, this was NOT anything to do with snorky's posts, it was just something about the name snorky.

Read the book but not seen the movie - I?ve met so few forumites that I can think what I like.


Bigbadwolf ? no idea, but I see him lighting a dynamite stick with his cigar to the theme tune from ?The Great Escape?


HoochieB ? I hear Stephen Fry, but the theme tune is most definitely ?Flash Harry? from St Trinians* . The funniest forumite by furlongs.


Rhinestone Cowboy ? no idea, but I really truly want to believe he?s Brad Pitt hitchhiking in Thelma and Louise. (Note to RC ? please let?s not ever meet. Ever.)


Anasfield ? very active minx; Emma Peel doing ?keepie-uppies?


Lovely Sean ? surely the most bromanced of the forumites?


Jah Lush - In my head was Spring from the Double Deckers. How far off the mark could I have been?


Keef - I actually do know what Keef looks like, which is a terrible shame because I truly want to believe he's Jack Sparrow, Captain Jack Sparrow, retired from the sea and got a job with the council.


The Peckham Posse ? Rose, Luv, GC ? have they ever been seen in the same place all at once?


Moos ? no clue but like the possibility that she could be Dame Moos. The forum needs a bit of class.


Woofmarkthedog ? a Heinz 57 variety with attitude and then some. I truly do believe he is a canine with keyboard skills.


The Fat Controller ? Alastair Sim?s Headmistress


* useless trivia ? the original St Trinian?s gymslip was from JAGS

Keef - I actually do know what Keef looks like, which is a terrible shame because I truly want to believe he's Jack Sparrow, Captain Jack Sparrow, retired from the sea and got a job with the council.


Are you suggesting I don't look like Johnny Depp? I think you should look again luv! :-S


*walks away tail between legs feeling unattractive*

    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd. 
    • I know I'm a bit premature but don't want to forget through too much Chrisntas cheer! Southwark Council Christmas trees recycling arrangements 2025 - bit worrying for the future that they're emphasising the free bit. "We’ll collect and recycle your real Christmas tree for free!  Trees should not be taller than 5ft. You should chop any taller trees into smaller pieces. Remove all decorations and the pot or stand and recycle it by: putting your tree with your garden waste containers on collection day requesting a free collection if you do not have a garden waste collection  taking it to our Reuse and Recycling Centre [43 Devon Street, SE15 1AL open 08:30-16:30 Mon-Sun] If you live in a flat you must leave the tree: outside on the kerb visible for the collection crew not in a bin store" I'll add the link to the collection booking service when it opens on 22 December. 
    • Most homes in East Dulwich / Good Green ward have collections on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. So no changes for them this year.  But for those few local homes with collections normally on Thursdays or Friday, with Christmas, Boxing day happening on Thursday and Friday any blue, brown or green bin collections will be delayed by two days. So Thursday 25 December collections will be on Saturday 27 December and Friday 26 December collections on Sunday 28 December. For New Years day those Thursday collections will be on the Friday 2 January and those with normal collections of Fridays that will be on Saturday 3 January. To double check when your Southwark Council rubbish, recycling, food waste, garden waste collections will be taking place please please check here - https://services.southwark.gov.uk/bins/lookup
    • Luckily I don't really any regular reason to park at Dawson Heights.  It must be very difficult for the residents I do feel for them.  Thank you for them.  I just presumed that Southwark owned the estate and would be responsible for parking enforcement there.
