Few times you really want that, considering just about every TV screen and monitor is landscape. It also makes editing them together (should you ever want) a nightmare.


Mind you, videoing in portrait is second on my 'irrational rage' meter to people actually videoing portraits. I've been in many a gallery where people wander around from painting to painting with a video camera. I feel the searing urge to beat them over the head with said camera whilst loudly shouting obscenities. Holiday videos are generally boring at the best of times, but this really would take dullness to a new extreme. Which poor sods were they intending to inflict this horror flick on?

that the self service device in supermarkets sees no irony in urging you to "please take your change" and "please take your items" (quickly please dear) after its pissed around for 5 mins finding unexpected items, called for assistance and checked twice if I want to continue.all I wanted was to buy some wine and a bag of crisps, why must it be like this!

In Hindmans road the tenanants in number twenty seven are taking diab olical liberties with the old folk next door by not only parking their car in theold couples drive,they have also put their bins there.

Other senior tenants say this is definetly not allowed,

Don't think so, judging by the sheer number of bloody fingerprints.

Late receipt requesters for piddly amounts of money. After till closes, "Oh, can I have a receipt for that packet of chewing gum". We all wait as the till is fumbled with several times, then the tiny piece of paper that bears the legend 77p is found and exchanged. Ask up front if you need a receipt for this PLEASE...

    • Southwark and Lambeth may have some spaces but this is not the case of other London boroughs nearby particularly at secondary level. Also this is not just a London issue. There are many regions throughout the UK that have no school places available (eg Kent due to new housing developments, rural areas, Surrey, Guildford, Edinburgh etc). Just because you feel it doesn’t affect you, does not mean it’s right.  You also need to consider the proportion of foreign students in many of the private schools in the area which distorts the impression that local people can pay private school fees and suck up an additional £4-5k per child and per year. And sadly, the psychological and emotional impact on children is not even being discussed.
    • Step in a child’s shoes just for one moment and think what it would be like to have to move schools in the middle of the year away from your friends, teachers, community etc. due to a political stunt. I doubt the money will even go into education. The UK will be become the only European country to tax education. Primary schools have some capacity where I live but I have enquired and there are currently no places for secondary school where I live. Again, so easy to be smug and say we should have pre planned a potential outcome 5 years ago when you live in your £2-3m homes next to the best state schools in Dulwich (like Keir Starmer!)
    • Please let me know if anyone is selling a Hemnes daybed in the near future. Thanks 
    • Birth rate collapses sounds a bit like Armageddon.  It's a mixture of a decline following a bulge, where many schools had to increase intake, and families moving out of the capital due to high cost of housing.  Now that is an irony, that only wealthy families, many who can afford private schooling, can afford to live in many parts of London.
