Tv chefs who go on tour, discover a fabulous previously undiscovered chef in some country or the other and rather than showing that chef cooking so we can learn from them, the tv chef insists on cooking something mediocre for the said chef... Grrrrr the tv chefs have a whole program about them but I want to see more by the undiscovered chef
Posters that are so full of themselves that they have to post on every thread going. No matter what the subject they have to get in. They cannot shut up. Over 13000 posts! Non-stop. Give it a rest. Take a break like O did, be discerning. Know what I mean j?

I'd sooner read 13,000 of Jeremy's posts than 13 of yours, which are almost without exception simply spiteful and trollish. Do you get off on just being as unpleasant as you can to people? The evidence would certainly seem to point that way.

That's causing me irrational giggles. Especially since English-speakers often over-egg the "oo" sound, like when people intend to say merci beaucoup! but turn it into merci beau cul! (that's "thanks, nice arse!")


"So you see darling, I simply had to deliver the cul de gras!" - the good old 'arse of fat' :D

Finding, at last, good condition Mervyn Peake paperbacks to replace mine foolishly lent, years ago, in a charity shop, Titus Groan and Titus Alone, with a space in between them. sigh. Probably only ten minutes too late.

Hi Sue.

I've always got Popadoms in the cupboard.

I deep fry them in Sunflower oil. 190 deg c and they come out crisp and dry. Just stand upright for 20 seconds.

They tend to go hard not crisp in the micromave.


Do use Micro wave I'm in a hurry. but they do not swell up like they do when deep Fried.

Waiting in all day for something to arrive that you have ordered.


I'm waiting for a fence panel to arrive from Jewsons E.D. No time given.. Not even a.m / p.m

If it had arrived this morning I could of fitted it and then gone out.

Someone phones you. You answer to find that the caller isn't paying attention and engaged in a conversation with someone else while waiting for me to answer. Well I did answer and as you couldn't be arsed to listen I put the phone down on you. Timewasters.

    • We're are just about to get ready for sale, a 2 bed flat, very close to Peckham Rye park.  It has been rented out for sometime, so is in need of some TLC for it to look its best, before it goes on the market.  Would be interested to know others thoughts on whether its best to just have the place painted completely white throughout, probably with new grey flooring, or if it might be more appealing to add some colour/interest (nothing too drastic), perhaps something alittle 'warmer', with some nice (potentially dark) feature walls maybe? Wondered whether the days of going completely white might now have passed ..... It might be useful to know that its not a period or conversion property, but rather a flat in a private purpose built block. 
    • It's a Microsoft . pub file, and it does open OK, but that's a discontinued program which used to be part of the full Office suite. I've got an old machine with old software and it's still on that.  This is a .pdf version (I hope)April 2025 Dulwich Hill Newsletter.pdf
    • Even with Acrobat pro - it does not open even though it is an acrobat doc.   Error: "Adobe Acrobat could not open 'April 2025 Dulwich Hill Newsletter.pub' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then choose Save as Adobe PDF from the PDF dropdown in the Print dialog."  
    • I got my hair cut there and was very happy with it. I thought the pricing was fair - less than Blue Tit which is where I used to go. Jonny used to cut my hair years ago. I went to book him but ended up with Gabriele who did a great job. Will use them again. Also their junior price goes up to 17.
