Mike if you're a bit stuck 'til payday, I don't mind, honest.

Oh well, Mike I suppose if the two of you can run to a puke session, then probably things aren't too bad in the exchequer.

But don't ever let it get to the point where you're being dunned by Southwark Council.

Just say the word and the 70 new pence is yours.

Now don't trivialise 70 new pence.

It used to be fourteen shillings in my day. If I could get another six shillings from an honest day's pickpocketing, Oh the spree that could be had.

A night of dancing at the local palais, with enough pints of mild and Woodbines to give a reel in the head.

Then onto the local brothel where time could be spent with an inexspensive prostitute.

I wonder what became of Short-time Sheila?

Then a fish supper. And still enough left for a cab home.

We used to have to get a cab because of course we had no shoes.

Tell the kids today and they don't believe you.

Oh well.

    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
    • Best you post when you have an idea of dates  - waste  of everyone’s time
    • Hi there,  Looking for 10-12 jars (to start with) of local honey to fill a small section of a deli space in my work canteen. Please get in touch if you know of any community projects/small scale productions Cheers
    • Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
