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.

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.
