Just seen this... Bread Ahead is the guy who was head baker at St John until last year (Justin Gellatly). The doughnuts are basically the same, but with a wider variety of fillings.

The trouble is that the fewer young people who vote (partly as a result of Brand's rantings) and the more older people vote, Governments will feel that they need to pander far more to older voters and keep on giving various benefits to old gits like me. That can be seen quite clearly in the policies of Osborne who is desperately trying to persuade people like me to vote for him. But sorry George, I won't.

As it's a while ago I was trying not to name names, but yes, that's the one.

Yeah I'll give him that.

That annoys me. He's done some drugs in his youth and enjoys shagging good looking women. Wow, big shocker, I think we're all junkies by his definitiotn.

Well yeah, but that's like saying I prefer flea bites to cancer.

How there's always at least one miserable git slating a product with 1 star on Amazon reviews.

What's wrong with that? Doesn't that show the system works and they're not screening out the bad ratings?

[GillyH]

This is brilliant, nearly in tears laughing!

I think my top annoyance is that I always try and make space for people walking the opposite way on the pavement but it seems very few people do the same. Makes me mad and so I have started to play chicken with people to see how close they'll get before moving an inch and really want to drop my shoulder for a dump tackle (not very ladylike!).

Although interestingly I have found that many more people in East Dulwich give way (both walking and driving) than in other parts of London - and I've lived in quite a few different parts of London.

People so intent on looking at their bloody phones when walking, they don't look where they are going.

People so intent on looking at their bloody phones when walking, they don't look where they are going and blame you when they crash into you - cos it's your fault, of course.

[Zebedee Tring]

At least you apologised, e-dealer!

Agreed. LOVED Halloween as a kid. These days it seems we've taken all the shit aspects of the American version without all the stuff that makes the American version good. So now it's just all about trick or feckin treat.

[Salsaboy]

And the thing about Halloween is that on October 31st you are encouraged to give sweets etc. to children you don't know and it's ok, but on November 1st you're called a sicko pervy paedo if you do it.

[KidKruger]

And also where's 'guying' as we approach Guy Fawkes night ?!

As kids we made a guy every year - anyone seen that happening during the last few years.

British guests on British shows that have to let drop that they just 'got in' last night.

Like it makes them more important because they were somewhere better than here.
