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*

    • I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders
    • Personally can’t stand carpets however where I am renting has carpet in  bedroom and hall. Not great quality and certainly not cleaned. Was  in B & M recently and looking at carpet shampoo -wow got a can costing £2.99 to test.. No scrubbing as others seemed to imply. Spray, leave and poof - smells great, no dabbing or scrubbing and c leaving rubbish. First to admit is only temp solution but no need to hire carpet cleaner instantly  or pay for a company to come and deal with professionally. For 3/6 months happy to have used this - Have a carpet cleaner and in a month or so plan to use it.    Buy a steam cleaner for floors - not expensive - much better than mop and bucket and more hygienic all round. Can pick up second hand ones on e bay.
    • Is this a true story? What protein powder causes kidney damage? Why didn't you cite an article? I shop at H&B, mostly to buy their castor oil, however, I would recommend researching any product beforehand. They do have very informative articles on their website. To be honest, I don't see the point of this post. You could have just taken the product back for a refund or complained in store and in writing.
    • Well the Italian on Lordship Lane  recommended here was delicious.  Thank you so very much -my party were extremely pleased with ambience, location and lovely food plus puddings to die for. They are also on Deliveroo.  Will certainly be back when I am back in 6 weeks time. Went past Love Dulwich at lunchtime on my way to Italian - only a party of 2 - food might be excellent but decided to give it a miss - wasn’t impressed with manager who admitted he had only been there 2 weeks. Might be being totally unfair but doubt it, as no comments since about a month ago from Pugwash.
