Long as it's only a teaspoon you're fine Pickle. Though if it escalates to tablespoons of the gear then we may have to rally round and offer an 'intervention'.

This involves being 'talked down' by a bunch of well meaners all toting quarts of vegetable stock.

It could be worse. According to them. Don't b@stard well see how though.


But 'Barbie Girl' is a fine tune and you're giving your children a fantastic exposure to popular culture. Especially as their mother has a burgeoning Bisto jones and all.

"Come on Barbie, let's go party..."

Freak!


Although I do make instant cake by shoving a spoonful of oats immediately followed by a spoonful of mixed fruit in the mouth. Recommended.

That recipe is not cake, judging by the quantity of fruit, it's a de-luxe muesli on the hoof


although you need a swig of full fat milk as the final ingredient.

...with good sounds on of course (Jeep AND whilst cooking).


...filling one's face with berries of any kind while at a 'pick your own' farm, paying for picked fruit with juice dribblin down chin, then having to wait days before being 'ready' to eat them due to prior ashamed gluttony !

    • @CPR DaveWe are talking about Lambeth Council, not Southwark, but I agree. It will be interesting to see if Lambeth fill part of that space with another hire out to a private events company.  As to the idea that what is gained financially from hiring out Peckham Rye Park is a good trade off, does not account for long-term damage to the park and the loss of access to the community for a month at least, in the best summer months where trees and shrubs are in full bloom and animals are birthing or rearing youngsters. For the Council to claim they are 'green' when they allow this is hypocrisy at its finest. @Northern Star Thanks, so they say. I'd love to see a list of these high quality free events and what they entail. I am not aware of any high quality free events in and around ED. Stand to be corrected though. Crikey, seems like they cannot even let Lordship Lane have Christmas lights this year.   
    • Regarding Gala fees: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/assets/attach/280615/GALA-2024-and-one-stage-shows-stakeholder-consultation-findings-report.pdf‘ ‘’The decision to host large/major-scale commercial (ticketed) events in Southwark was taken in 2017, deemed necessary in order to raise enough revenue to offset the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of 50+ outdoor community events per year, and in order to continue to fund a range of high quality, free events across Southwark through the Cultural Celebrations Fund grants programme.’’
    • Sorry, not having a dig at Southwark for that.   I'm just shocked that next door they've chosen to abandon such an institutional community / family event so they can keep pumping out commercial stuff instead.   I suppose the same could happen here next although we don't really have any longstanding family events like that one.
    • No doubt the schools in Harrogate are being discussed on the East Harrogate Forum or whatever. Dulwich College is being discussed because it's local. Saying "ooh, there were loads of schools mentioned" is a bit dismissive. It was Dulwich College that referred sex abuse allegations about pupils to the police and Dulwich College that used the spectre of the police to suppress dissent. 🤔
