I don't know why, but I really like you Petunia. Whenever I see your posts I can't but help think of Julie Andrews singing "My Favorite Things".


I hate to be presumptuous but I can't help picture you as;

I put it that Peter....Sorry Peculiar Buttons ain't quite whot you may think.


I submit for your perusal.

A "woman" who can cook chops but puts a wollen on a hot wash with EXTRA surf & then says "no harm done"


See I'm a bit of a fabric queen and those who really do the laundry will back me up, follow PB's advise and your woolen knit wear will turn out like a doormat. Unless she wears pure unadulterated acrylic knits, can't see it though if the "Gal got class"

BBW, curb yourself, to even suggest that PetButt smells of Lynx and recently ingested bacon sandwiches is borderline caddish.

Oh, dear, you are a lot of funny folk on here!!


Whenever I do me little bits of writing on here- I like to think of it as doing a sort of free postcard, if you like- you youngsters always come on and start saying I'm someone else, especially Ted and Max! Well, if you could only see us now, me and Mr B are sitting here with the tears rolling down our faces!!


As if someone would come on here and pretend to be a lady of a certain age, happily married and living in Nunhead!I mean, it's a nice life and all, but it's hardly Harrold Robbins now, is it?


I'm a bit puzzled by it, to tell you the truth, cos I never get this on moneysavingexpert. Or on the Grans bit of that Mums Net (mind you I don't go on there too often. I'm telling you, some of the language those "ladies" use would make a whore blush!)


Anyway, I'm off to me sister in law's at the sheltered for lotto night. To tell you the truth, the lotto ain't all that, but we call it "lucky dip" night. While the warden's got her back turned, going round collecting up the big pens and the cards, we all put our unwanted medications in the lotto bag, give em a shake to mix em up nice and then pick one out each. You should try it, it's ever such fun! You never know what you're going to end up with!


Anyway nighty night all...and remember-if you like it, try it-if you don't like it, try it- you might like it!

I think that settles it, PetButt is either Jimmy Tarbuck or Jim Bowen.

I don't think so.

    • There's probably a bigger discussion on why we celebrate Christmas (pagan/religious festival) and why everything has to shut down.  I've enjoyed Xmas days in Spain, Mexico and France where some businesses and restaurants are open, and in a number of non-Christrian countries.  In both sets of occasions it has been festive, but not over the top and the Spanish seem to have a more relaxed attitude in a country where the church is probably more important than the UK.  A Lounge conversation.  I'll no doubt be popping into the Forest Hill Road supermarket on Xmas day for things we have forgotten, with many others in a similar situation who grew up in the Christian faith (I've long since been an atheist).   
    • Would anyone have ends of balls of wool, any colour, to mend an old blanket? Any colour? With thanks Mila
    • 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...
