ok, i know grazia is fairly rubbish, even in it's category (a category i know well).

but why is it that tosh thinks it's honorable to read the Business section of multiple

newspapers and the Economist (and sometimes the New Statesman) every week BUT

looks down on me disapprovingly every time I open a women's mag, a weekend magasine, or a show biz gossip mag?


Why is spending hours reading about the economy considered fine whilst reading about people/pop culture isn't fine???


or is tosh just an elitist bully?

Does it really matter? It doesn't bother me if after a hard day some light entertainment is consumed, some people are way too serious all the time and lifes too short so if you like reading gossip from Women's mags then tell him Ballaxe.

maybee its time for you to find someone who isnt soooo stuffy.

When taking the dentist's waiting room challenge my top pick would probably be 'Hello'.


The publication is near-perfect, in my opinion.


The only thing that would improve it would be a problem page. Not your modern over-sexualised rubbish.. more along the classic lines of Mary Marryat's page from the Woman's Weekly ("I occasionally smell of onions when I sweat".. "will a glass eye ruin our love life?" etc)

It's bigbadwolf not 'bigbadwolfe', thicky! Secondly, what's all this 'fuzzy wuzzy' business eh Mickles? I can only guess but I'm sure they 'don't like it up em'.


If you think Dulwichmum makes you look silly Mike Mrs Mills would tear you a new arsehole!

BBW is spot on with Mrs Mills, a nice bit of wit and innuendo on a Sunday over a sausage sarnie is just the job. It is AA Gill though, isn't it? His retaurant and TV reviews are also what I buy the paper for.

However Shosh please inform Tosh that Sarah Harding is MY completely inappropriate crush and I'd be obliged if he confined his attentions to one or more of the four.

Thanks.

Ah yes, Sarah "disco Smarties" Harding. The attraction to this drug infused, dead behind the eyes twenty year old is obvious. Where is her mother? That is what I want to know.


Speaking of reading material for the dentists waiting room *Bob*, has anyone else noticed that the dentists next to the post office on Lordship Lane have lined their walls and filled their magazine racks with advertisements, price lists and literature on Botox and fillers? Little Max was traumatised by the images of needles being pushed into faces. We will not be going back.


Has it really become that popular in suburbia?

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
