Waiting in a long queue for the female toilets (only 2!) at say, an agricultural show and when it's finally your turn both cubicles become free at the same time.


Can't explain it but it just doesn't seem fair that the person behind me in queue gets to go too! Why am I never that person? Waah it's all so unfair. I may have posted about this before.

Hearing SNP people (and others who parrot their words) talking about Scotland's specialness and worthiness of more devolved powers and - ultimately - independence but never hearing TV and radio presenters actually dig deep and ask them to give examples.

good point nigello although not sure thats irrational rage, sounds very rational to me!


although NS came across well in the pre-electiond debates, she was never really called to account by those outside of Scotland for her party's performance over the last 7 years at Holyrood. She can debate well but scratch beneath the surface and its all bollocks.

On social bloo*y media, numpties spreading stories about things that have been 'banned' and thus being outraged.


"Apparently Facebook are removing this [some political quote or other] from people's timelines, so please make sure it goes viral. Please share.." No, it hasn't been banned. Some political type wants their crappy quote to go viral by suggesting it's been 'banned'.


Gove 'banned' "Of Mice And Men". No he didn't, he suggested removing it from the list of recommended titles at GCSE. Stupid, maybe, but it's not book-banning. And do kids only read prescribed books these days? If so, we've got a lot more to worry about than Michael bloody Gove.


And there's another annoying 'meme' about the ASA banning a Greenpeace anti-fracking ad "because David Cameron disagreed with it". It's b*llocks, but there's that 'nasty man banning something' nonsense again. Enough!

Yeah that annoys me too. Lots of people have shared the classic bullingdon club photo and say they've banned it, let's make sure it's everywhere.


Just silly.


RE nicola Sturgeon, time will tel. She can't hide from economics, if she fuck it up the proof will be there for everyone to point at.

Websites offering a PayPal option that still insist on you putting all your billing and delivery address details in. No, you'll get that info from PayPal, not from me. That's part of the attraction of PayPal from the lazy punter's point of view.

Nearly everything about buses, especially the 363. Why at 630 in the morning is the floor soaked with coke? Why are the hand rails Covered in grease? Why on an empty bus is there always some dullard standing with a bag in the way? Why must the driver accelerate as fast as they can for 20m then break hard? Why will nobody open a window to let the stink of fried chicken out?


Feel Much better....

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
