The kids have gone to a friends house with their daddy, and I think I will spend the afternoon cleaning out my make-up bag. Why don't you boys do the same? It can be rather satisfying, rediscovering a lip gloss you haven't used for a while!


The au pair is engrossed in the Jeremy Kyle show. She is horrified and traumatised by it and observed, "British people love sex and have many babies with many boyfriends" - I said "only on TV sweetie, this is Dulwich".

Wow, you must be really excited now. Bumbalina said you were going together to pick up the dress before the weekend - you haven't had a sneaky look dear Mr Huguenot have you? You know it is not good luck.


What is your suit like? Who made it? What colour and style? James had a black single breasted three button suit with baby blue lining - it was really cool. He looked so handsome. I think I shall take out my wedding album. It was the most perfect day.

Hmmm, Bumbalina and her merry band of followers have been harping* on about baby blue this weekend already.


We did indeed pick up said item from Morgan Davies in Islington. It was very long. It's in the spare room. I've seen colour swatches as we've had to co-oridnate with waistcoats and cravats ;-)


However, Mockney still hasn't told me his measurements. What does he have to hide I wonder?


*all devilish intent I suspect

I'm here, not drinking or doing anything too loud as I too spadetownboy have a 10k run! I will shake my tush (sic) at the Carnival on monday at Gaz's Rockin Blues...part from that...nowt.


(Ooh I've been to the Ottery Tar Barrels, bonkers!!) Mockney we have taken on a case of a woman who got hit on the head with one of those barrells, she has permanent brain damage. Cheery)...they're all feckless people down there....


I'm going to Croyde in two weeks time. That's in north Devon. A spot of surfing.


Duwlich will be nice and quiet then, apart from the usual Clapham blow-ins.

no no the carnival up in Nottinghill. Jah, you should know that, right?..and there's no tents, just sound systems. Gaz R. Blues has his in the shape of a wartime plane that's crashed into the jungle (very Lost) they have this whole set up that's bigger than the houses themselves. They're all in costume and it's madness!!!! the band play in the holes of the crashed plain and they all swing from the trees of the jungle....I kid you not. You must go and see for yourself. they also ply the crowds with very strong Jamaican rum. For free. Bonus.


Georgia you must go to The Black Rabbit on the river at Arundel. I used to go there as a kid with the folks. Still a great country pub. Great food! Take a stroll out of the town centre and you will see signs for the Black Rabbit. Very nice place to be on a bank holiday.

Ken still does free festivals - Rise was in Burgess Park 2 years ago before heading up to Finsbury Park


But then the lineup at Clapham is pretty good (for that sort of thing) - Streets, MIA, Go Team, DJ Semtex etc

    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
