Well I have just spent the last 3 hours trying to (partially sucessfully) beat Mockney Piers and Ratty's scores on xbox live

Guilty pleasure doesn't begin to describe it actually as the pleasure was only partial but the guilt was almost non-existent!

He was a bit too cocky for my liking .

My guilty pleasure is the Evening Standards ES magazine. Incidentally, did anyone else catch the latest issue because it's got the latest starlet of English period drama Rachel Hurd-Wood eblazoned across the front cover.


Her 'assets' nearly caused me to pass out on platform 12 at London Bridge on Friday.

Another of my guilty pleasures is reading the Sunday Times which I've just finished. The particular treat in this behemoth of well written media has to be Style magazine for the simple reason of Mrs Mills. If I were to settle down and marry I'd want my bride to feature the wit and class bestowed upon my favourite agony aunt, even if it is A A Gill. Givenchey's new campaign on the back cover also has Uma Thurman reclining in a position that I'll be sure to remember for some time to come.


Also, I've often wondered whether it would be possible to derail an intercity train with a copy of the Sunday Times considering how much of the Amazon must have to be butchered in order to produce a broadsheet on that scale.

Flapjack,


I, like anyone else on the forum am happy to admit to a silly or childish pastime or habit. I'm not however, willing to admit to a secret such as the music you've divulged that would force me to go into hiding or enter the witness protection programme.


I'd rather use wax to remove the hair on my scrotum than admit to enjoying any such music written and performed by a man who divorced his wife by fax.

    • Just astonishing - how do they do it? Well done for being so on the ball. 
    • Shocking - so fast. Machines can have a false device for inserting your card into and then they retain it. Your bank should return your money 
    • FYI East Dulwich neighbours: I was in the middle of a cash withdrawl at the cashpoint at the Tesco Express on ED road (the one next to the Esso petrol station) when a man appeared beside me waving his hands over the screen and saying not to use it because it had just taken his card. He then dissapeared and I cancelled the withdrawl. No card was returned. It took me literally 30 seconds (max) to realise something wasn't right and 'freeze' the card on my mobile/banking app. I immediately got a txt message from my bank saying a transaction had just been declined, and then another. I logged in to app and £251 had already been taken. This all happened increadibly quickly - the whole incident from first encounter to money being taken and me freezing card was probably around 3 minutes. The guy must have somehow seen me put my PIN number in. It's possible there was some kind of card skmming involved, but I don't know for sure. The man was around 5ft 6/7, black and wearing a covid-type face mask. I don't remember what clothes he was wearing. I got the feeling (mainly from his voice and eyes) that he wasn't young - maybe mid-30s to mid-40s (but I can't be sure). Obviously I repoted to police. 
    • It would be incredible if the community supported small businesses rather than a chain (Gail's being a very large chain).   Sadly, consumers don't realise their power - as you can see also by the number of coffee cups etc that are still being bought and contribute to landfill - it' not hard to be responsible, just inconvenient.
