Next week from The 25th/28th June Greenwich+Docklands International Festival returns with a water-themed programme for 2009. The story of Greenwich and Docklands has been shaped and defined by water and, using this inspiration, the Festival will commission and present a range of extraordinary UK and international artists to provide a visionary water-based interpretation of the area. Highlights will include a celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Baroque composer Handel with an outdoor son et lumiere inspired by the Thames entitled Water Music, as well as the UK premiere of French company Ilotopie?s Fous de Bassin, a poetic spectacle in which the performers will literally walk on water.....

TLS, politics aside, have you visited the Mediatheque at the NFT yet?


You can see films from a Lost London 1896 - 1945, all for nothing; along with over 1,300 titles from the National Archive of the BFI.


I think there's even a few Ken Loach titles in amongst them, along with Humphrey Jennings, Grierson and lots of public information/WW II propaganda shorts.


Enjoy, if you can tear yourself away from this bloody Forum, that is !

Thanks I may well do that. The Lady who rang me and suggested next Thursday is my age also and she might be interested in that, as well. ( thats if I can pull her away from Mountain-Biking, lol)


The Forum? Blame the ruddy English weather!


I gamble for a living on Betfair in the afternoon/evenings, when I'm not working at The Racetrack, so that is why The Forum is so convenient but I've wanted to take a break all week and get The Riverboat down but the ruddy weather has prevented this happening.

Maybe today Galli..

    • The chancellor is exploring new opportunities (  and rightly so) for raising tax revenue in an endeavour to tackle the debt burden facing the nation. One think tank has floated the possibility of taxing  remittances  sent overseas by UK residents using a mix of formal channels  such as banks Western Union, MoneyGram, Wise and WorldRemit.  The proliferation of Western Union agencies has become notable in recent years. It is estimated that  around £28.5 billion was remitted to such countries as India, Pakistan, Nigeria and  countries in the Caribbean. Imposing such a tax could reduce capital outflows and result in greater investment here in the UK. The USA is introducing a tax at the rate of 1% effective 1/1/2026. Canada, Oman and Saudi Arabia are expected to follow suit.
    • I'm trying to be civil, see things from different perspectives and avoid arguments. The grey economy is cash in hand, so no tax to be paid, Chancellor loses out, we all win. Zero hrs contracts must be tough not knowing where or when the next work is coming from.  My position might not be great, but with a bit of sensible weekly shopping, stocking up on best buys etc. one survives and life ain't that bad.  
    • I'm trying to find a venue for my daughter's 18th but it's really difficult. Most venues don't want 18th birthday parties. We were looking at Brockwell Hall (The newly refurbed big ol' house in the park) but they want 4.5k for a night which has to finish at 11pm. My daughter tells me her friends don't go out till 11 which I think may be an exageration but I get her point. I'm looking for a bar/club type venue where I can have a DJ till 1/2am and that's about it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    • My Conure just flew away outside.  She flew towards Belvoir Road.   Please call me if you see her.  She isn't tame but she is too small to survive the other birds will kill her. Please call me  07739180197. Or.  07504852207. Carolyn
