I'm back now just so you know


One thing about france though, it's all a bit regional innit


There's only so much Foie Gras and duck based products I can handle, someone should open a Tandoori chain there


Oh and oh yeah, they love a pizza in SW France, fekkin cheese/bread based snacks everywhere

You should try the Arepas in Colombia.


(Yes, that was a shameless way to insert my recent destination. :) )

yeah, I bet you also had that pretentious dish they call... 'omelette'. Just a posh way of serving eggs. FFS.


Please don't say you had it with a glass of wine as well.

Lou hasn't really been to Skeggy, or eaten out of a dustbin


She just likes to be spiteful, yet we get to hear about her getting sh!tfaced and stuffing a kebab in her face on 'the lane'


Or some wondrous trip to a food warehouse on the Old Kent Road


Again

Yeah the realities of city life eh bags? Heaven forbid having to rough it!


Can't even rough it round here now without having a focaccia stuffed in your face for a fiver a pop. Anyway, keep pontificating about roughing it in the south of France. Hope the yacht wasn't too small and the champagne was kept ice cold at all times? 'Knob' syndrome appears to be catching.


Louisa.

France was fairly basic Lou, essentillay a wooden shed with a bedroom just big enough for a smallish double bed. The kitchen compromised of a work top and two ring burner, so not really room for the yacht here i'm afraid


It's on a camp site in a wood by the beach, and the wine is really cheap


So hardly 'knobbing' but as you will


Oh and, SW France isn't the 'south of France'

If you like ham, cheese and bread


Or that marvellous hot mix up version of the above 'pizza' then head to the French Alps


Not a day's gone by when I've not inserted some in one form or another into my face


Snow's pretty ok if you're thinking of an early one

I love the cheese-tastic parts of France like the Savoyard, but I have to draw the line at raclette. FFS - it's melted cheese and boiled potatoes. That's not a meal - it's the last contents of the fridge when you've forgotten to do the shopping.

You'll be happy to know that I got to the autoroute gate at 1-am only to go "Oh fekk" when the auto machine rejected my

Visa cards


And of course I had no cash whatsoever, Alan I thought of you then


Would they let me through, NON


But a man came along about an hour later, drove me to a cash machine 1/2 hour away to draw cash out and then pay ?20 to be on my way


Yes Al, I thought of you smiling at my plight. I'm coming back v soon, ? in pocket this time

This was my lunch today. Except I couldn't open the pickle jar and didn't wash it down with red wine. So apart from that...pretty similar.

I'll be cheese loading my VW transporter on Weds from U supermarket


The place has an altar of the stuff, it's fekkin mind (and heart valve) blowing


I'll happily roll a wheel of the stuff on for anyone who's in need for the festive break


Pm if you're in cheese mode

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
