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


so nah


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

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.

      Taxes

      I think it's a good idea and follows the example of other towns/areas. As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
