We used to say 'rude' (which it was intended to be ? I have irrational rage), but 'intolerant' is the sin du jour, I suppose.

Does your irrational rage extend to calling someone a Twat to their face, or is it just limited to being behind a keyboard/touchscreen?...

'Seems' = my perception. From memory it was a quiet day for me though.

How sensationalist the BBC News has become.


Man inappropriately touches woman's knee 15 years ago, he said sorry, she says she ain't bothered.

BBC front page news says "Michael Fallon 'apologised for touching journalist's knee'"


That's not news. It's an old, miniscule incident that's trying to be used to stir up more stuff to make yet more shit news.


Note to self: Stop reading the news you moron, it's irrelevant rubbish! Go re-read the chapter on Why you shouldn't read the news in that book The Art of Thinking Clearly.

10.30pm: put on clean nightdress and get into freshly changed bed complete with normal-weight duvet instead of thin summer one. Open Agatha Christie.


10.32pm: hot flush. Get out of bed, drink cold water, visit bathroom.


Repeat.

Commiserations xx

There's a certain type of song that has become really popular in advertising that I call the John Lewis cover song.


It's generally a young lady singing a slow soft ethereal cover version.


Current examples are "Stand by Me" in a Nescafe ad. "Send in the Clowns" in a car ad and "Ready or Not" in a Green and Blacks ad.


I am usually subjected to this at least twice when I visit the cinema.

    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.  
    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
