Knitted cupcakes (as if a national obsession with this insanely overrated confection wasn't bad enough - knitted ones for ladies who just lurrrrve cake, and probably ponies and kittens too, but don't want to take a hit to their dress size that might be caused by actual pastel frosting). Who buys this shit? Whoever you are, just stop it.


And adverts that tell you, yes, you still can be beautiful / and or dance, in spite of your vile monthly bleeding. ("Who said protection can't be beautiful?" I'll tell you who said that. No one. No one bloody said it. Because that's the most stupid thing ever written by an advertising copywriting moron EVER.) Are these from the same people who used to advertise scented sanitary towels by showing a bumpy train journey where a woman inadvertently thrusts her groin into a man's face and thinks, oh no, he can smell me? Vile vile vile, misogynistic wankers. Didn't Just 17 put us straight on this shit when we were 12? Fuck off Tampax and fuck off Always you fucking fuckers.

Driving home to ED from the North of the Country. After hours on the motorway, the last thing you need is to navigate your way through the traffic of Central London, or wind yourself up going via the Circular road of your choice. Either way will generally result in a nightmare and makes me dread coming back.
Toilets where the toilet seat when up, is the wrong side of the vertical and keeps falling back down. So if you're a bloke and you have to use one hand to hold up a pissy seat and the other to....you get the idea. And yes, I REFUSE to sit down. Or try to pee through the seat which always gets complaints. Who the fuck designs these without thinking about that?

couldn't agree more.


Plus text speak from people older than 9. If you can't be bothered to text the full word, call instead.

People who say "I" instead of "me".


E.G,


"That ice-cream's for her and I".....Take out the 'Her' and you're saying, "it's for I".

Should be, "her and me".


"This area really suits Simon and I".....no it doesn't, it suits "Simon and me".



"This has been a real learning curve for Gill and I, because...." GILL AND ME!


(All real statements)


"He and I love these kids" - OK. take out "He" and I still love the kids!

    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
    • MaryT, I’ve contacted the Dulwich Hill councillors several times in recent years, always copying them both in. I have never had an acknowledgment from Jon Hartley (not even an automated response or out-of-office) nor had any response or engagement from him regarding the issue raised.   On each occasion, only Maggie Browning responded (she uses an out-of-office if she is away). The last time, I received no response from either for 3 months, until Maggie Browning emailed me to apologise for not responding and asking if the problem had been resolved.
    • The  Kwasi effect is being considered.
