Pools of cat crap in the garden,

ones that you do not notice as you are busy watching where you point the hose over the newly planted pea plants,

and you turn off the hose,

walk in doors and the stinky filthy crap which you walk right through the house before you realise what you carelessly trod on, damn!

My Swedish friend tells me that there it is considered cruel to neuter/spay cats, so the female ones are given birth control pills in their food!


Don't know if it's a cultural thing or just her!

Is it just me, or is there something slightly incongruous about all these people loving their cats to pieces and almost to the point of anthropomorphism and posting frankly sinister pictures on here, but then chopping fairly vital bits out of them?


Frankly I'm with Frankie Boyle on pets (apart from dogs, who are quite clearly excellent).

What would you liked to have replied? I'm curious.

I'm incredibly crap at articulating myself so even now I have no answer. I would have liked to get across in a few witty words how inappropriate it was especially since he's a southwark employee and how I was really cheerful for a split second that he'd said morning. See I can't even articulate it on here because that sentence makes no sense! I wasn't offended or anything, especially as I am looking quite ordinary with jeans and a jacket, I'm sure he says it to anyone in a skirt (or jeans) it's just that I was so content with the 'morning' part.


edited to say actually if I could rewind I'd say "you smell niiice" so nothing like the above!

So...Southark wouldn't collect the fence panels because they had been engaging in a criminal activity??




p.s. - couldn't you have just explained to Southwark that the fence panels had now "gone straight" (or perhaps this would just have compounded the problem).

Sophiesofa, I think I might know what you mean - is it like when you meet a guy who's pleasant and friendly and you think - hey, I may have a new friend here, brilliant - and then he leches all over you and you realise Oh, you just liked my tits then, I thought you thought I was a nice person.

Mmm, yeah, it's hard to explain but it's just a bit disappointing when a conversation you thought was on the level turns out to have an agenda.


Probably just crossed wires and not anyone's fault.


Disclaimer, in case anyone thinks I'm really up myself: hasn't happened very often or for a very long time! :)

Yesterday I was in a meeting and there was a man with incredibly tight jeans on and my colleague (different one) commented on how he'd noticed me staring. :-$ It made me feel sick but I was mesmerized.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
