Christ Xena, I thought my school were martinets.

They used to beat the crap out of us, bet never actually removed body parts.

The school of hard knocks indeed.

it was indeed HonaloochieB and all I did by mistake to receive this punishment was fall off a cliff face on a school climbing holiday


That Mr Black was a real hard nut and took punishment to extremes but it didn't do me no 'arm !!!

Can I just ask - how bored are you exactly ?

I suspect your observations have been made at night when there is a higher percentage of drunks rolling out of the various pubs and bars on Lordship Lane. Alternatively it could be the number of people who go running down Lordship Lane without proper running training and thus are now carrying injuries. I suggest you contact a local physiotherapist for their thoughts on the matter.

Next you'll be telling us you've just spotted a 3-legged Australian go past by the name of Jake The Peg.

Don't be silly.


But the count since my last post (And I'm afraid I failed to check the whole time) is:


1 man and 1 woman with sticks (left leg)

1 man with a stick (right leg)

1 woman with 2 sticks (both legs)

1 woman with crutches


Add those to the ones I posted earlier and you've got to admit. That's a lot of dodgy legs in one day.

    • I'm talking about parts of the country economically deprived, some that never recovered from the loss of traditional industries. But in your point, yes, there are those that are never happy.  We should be reasonably happy in this area.
    • This feels like you have never worked in retail or understand the pressures retail businesses have 😅
    • I have managed to work out the date to the best of my knowledge and have filed a report.    The tone of the interactions here has reminded me why I had not been on EDF for so long. Too many people seem to spend their time on here to gain pleasure from being contrary, judgemental, accusatory and unkind. 
    • Ed has experience of having to care for others (his mother and son) he understands more so than other MPs how NHS and Social Services need funding and to work together. David Cameron had a seriously disabled son but he appeared to lack empathy with others who have family in the same situation. I vaguely remember that when his son died - he thanked the NHS for the care given to the family. Gordon Brown, I believe is another very genuine person - and fully committed to improving lives of families. His daughter died shortly after birth and one of his sons was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis.   I far rather trust Ed and Lib Dems than I would Reform or Tories. I have known a few MPs of different political  persuasions, met with them, been canvassing etc over many years and those who stand out for me are Paddy Ashdown, Susan Kramer, Tessa Jowell, Helen Hayes  .
