Which Terry Wogan had the good manners to play while I was enjoying my breakfast in Rock Steady Eddies at Camberwell this morning.

But it's not that one JB.

Ah yes but rather than being a peculiarly catholic tradition, Shrove Tuesday and eating pancakes is actually a British Isles tradition. A lot of the Catholic world tends to celebrate it as Mardi Gras which involves heavy drinking and taking our clothes off. This may or may not have something to do with the Pope tossing his pancakes. Anyway I knew what you meant I was just being silly. Is it Mott the Hoople?

No you're not, JB I won't allow it. I can't.

I insist you identify the song that commences with the word 'Honaloochie' and the second word in the title begins with the letter 'B' and comprises six letters.

And it's by a group whose name is an anagram of Moth Poet Hotel.

(I wish I could claim credit for that, but it's actually a highly sought-after cover version LP of said group)

Now the clues are all there, just say what you see.

Well done JL. I reckon the others knew too but were just indulging in teasage.

So over to your good self for the next set of lyrics.

Could I put in a preemptive bid for the group being The Faces?

I mean you never know.

I sort of know this - it's from The New York Album. I bought this CD in New York when it first came out and I listened to it non-stop. Couldn't tell you the track without getting up and going downstairs and, to be honest, I just haven't got it in me right now to do that - I'm tucked up in bed (I lead a quiet life don't ya know). Anyway, it's Lou Reed, New York album.

      Bitey Fox.

      By Babbit · Posted

      I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By Enable · Posted

      Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
