[quote name=Comapring Chrissie Hynde to Lilly Allen is like comparing a fine Ch?teau Margaux' date=' to a bottle of Lambrini.

]


My thoughts exactly Brendan...



but not sure anyone will know who Lily Allen is in 30 years time SMG...

don't think she got the same staying power (or class for that matter) as Chrissie Hynde

lilly allen is good at what she does and has made the most of her abilities, so i guess i admire her for that. Chrisie is in another league however and her talents have stood the test of time. Maybe being vegan is the way forward if you want to look good at 58.

The first two records are little gems of pop rock, them and a greatest hits are all you need really.

I read an interview with CH some time ago where she was talking about giving up the drink.

Her reasoning was along the lines of 'I didn't mind being an alcoholic, but when I started looking like one...'

Snorky I've never associated Hynde and drummer Martin Chambers with heroin, are you sure?

Supposed to marry JL, but ( IIRC ) JL was hungover/ speeding , so he sent Sid down to take his place and Ch refused to go ahead/ ran off


With regard to CH skag - um.

>Would you still fancy her if she hadn't been in all those kinky films?>


I have liked her since "The Lacemaker" She is a most extraordinary actor. If you think her films are kinky you should really get out more >:D<


Not sure if Isabelle Adjani is 50 yet but on my....I say..oh my!!

Well thanks for that Kel - if you don't like the thread you don't have to comment. Surely we are not all on here to talk sense. Life's rather dull when we all talk sense.

I have only seen two of her films, as far as I can recall.


In Ma Mere, her character slits her own throat while having sex with her son. There is a subplot involving BDSM.

In The Piano Teacher, she plays a masochist who embarks on an affair with a teenage student. She instructs her student to beat her up and have violent sex.


I think these films are more than a little risque, Simon... but perhaps this kind of thing passes for innocent family viewing in your household?

Jeremy - aren't you thinking of Isabelle Huppert?

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
